Listen and read. What is Laila thinking about? She’s thinking about her future life.

I might... Tell me, Laila, about your life, When were you born, on what day? I was born on a Tuesday, at 6.30 pm, On 29th May. And what will you do when you grow up? For example, when you leave school? I may go backpacking, I may travel the world, I think that will be cool! What will you do when you come back? Will you go to university? I might study English, I might study Maths, I might get a good degree. What will you do when you finish that? What job do you think you'll do? I could find a job as a teacher. Or I could be an astronaut, too! Do you think that you will start a business? Do you think you'll be successful as well? I may start a business - it may happen to me. At the moment, I just can't tell. When you finish work, when you retire, What will you do for fun? I might sit by the sea and look back at my life And laugh at the things that I've done!
