As the time goes by, people’s priority will change, because in different age we have different duty and identity. For example , when I was a baby, my duty was healthily growing up. When I was a student, I should pay attention on studying. In the past few years, I spent more time at school but in fact I didn’t study hardworking and I always imagined when I graduate and become an adult, I will be free, I can do anything that I want to do and I wouldn’t stay at school any more. However, now I think It’s so foolish，if I had study working ,I would have more better chance to choose.
