It's a new academic year!


Carl : Hey Yvonne! Are you heading to the registrar's office? You know you can do it online, don't you?

Yvonne : Yeah, I know. But I have a couple of unique requests that will require someone to override the computer.

Carl : Oh! Are you planning on taking graduate-level courses? I was considering it, but with my internship, I would be running myself into the ground.

Yvonne : I need to  take the advanced accounting class so I'll get into the MBA program at Harvard easier.

Carl : Wow, You've really set your sights high!

Yvonne : There's no much point in setting them low, right? I mean, both of my parents have PhDs, so I've got a  lot to live up to.

Carl : True, but don't dig yourself an early grave in the progress.

Yvonne : Don't worry about me. I've got it under control. What about you? What are you going to do when we graduate in the spring?

Carl : Me? I'm hoping to win the lottery between now and then just be a filthy rich and well-educated beach bum!

Yvonne :  That sounds like a solid plan. Ha ha! And if that doesn't work out for you, what is your backup plan?

Carl : I think I'll go to work at my dad's advertising firm. But I'll keep playing the lottery, just in case my dream's only been delayed.


[Expression of the day]

I hope to be filthy rich one day.
나는 언젠가 엄청난 부자가 되길 바란다.

I hope to be very well off one day.
I hope to be very well-to-do one day.
I hope to be very well-heeled one day.
