Traditional life path
When life begins, there are many stages in life to
pursue, and become a prosperous person. For
instance, Lucia is 1)
to use up a quarter of her life singing.
Also, she is hoping to become the best singer in
the world. However, most teenagers are intending
to spend a 2)
of their life in school. Then, they are 3)
to graduate, enjoy adulthood, make
long-term commitments, master their skills, settle
down, build a state, build a nest egg, and
transfer their estate to their 4)
ones. This is very traditional, but Lucia
is 5)
to summarize all in one, so she achieves
what others pursue.
