let me introduce myself. my name is jackie. my full name is jackie rose. i am twenty - one and am in the 4th year of the french and english department at aberdeen university. i live on a farm in the north of scotland, in an area which features manytourists because of its beauty, the scottish highlands. it is a region with many outlying territories lochs and can be very bleak in the winter, that is why the united states is fairly small. agriculture is the main occupation. my father is a farmer.during the term time and i live in a flat with five other girls and we often go home at week ends since it is only a hundred miles away.my mother is a housewife and is always busy looking after the house is the garden and various animals. she is 48, and my father is 51. they both came from very large families (my mother is one of six children and my father is one of four) so my two sisters, my brother and myself have many aunts, uncles and cousins. my mother"s parents are still alive, but we were predominantly see them because they live on a small scottish island in the far away.my elder sister margaret is almost twenty and works for my father in his office as a secretary. it is a well - paid job and she is very good, but she does not really enjoy it because she works speciality. at heart she is a lover of outdoor life and it belongs to work with horses. last year she trained to be a riding instructress but realized it would be difficult, if not impossible, to find a job and since she had already done a year"s secretarial course when she left school at 17, she decided to work for my father.Jocelyn, my other sister, is seventeen and in her final year at school. up to the last time she went to a boarding school in aberdeen but decided to come home and spend her last year in inverness at the local comprehensive school, because she has so many animals to look after. she owns two of our four cats, has two sheep and also keeps a ducks. as can be seen Jocelyn is very interested in farming and she wants to study agriculture at the university next year. it is perhaps not a very wise choice, since it is extremely difficult for girls to find jobs as farm managers.the youngest member of the family was william, who is 16. he is at a boarding school in perth, about 150 miles away and comes home once a term and at holidays. choosing a career is no problem for him, he has always wanted to be a farmer and to take over the business from my father. he is tall and strong for his age and works on the farm every holiday.as can be seen all my family (except for me) is very involved in farming. this isn"t surprising since both my father"s father and my mother"s father and their fathersbefore them were also farmers, it is a family tradition. our family is a larger than average (both the average number of children in british families is 2). but since the age difference between the children is small, we all get on very well with each other and with our parents. all in all, we"re a very happy family.
