I was looking out of the window, watching the traffic and umbrellas below. As the rain fell, I was wondering
what I was doing with my life. (16)......... I had finished university and taken the first job that I was

G-We teach them how to swim more carefully.
F- Although I had a good job, I was bored.

up a paid job.
