Well, I just followed my parents' advice. You know, most Chinese parents make this important decision for their kids. I didn't really know what to do in the future at that time. So I asked my dad, and he told me that it's a popular subject that can make me more competitive in my future career. He also told me that tourism management is a promising field with great potential for development in the future. So I'm a tourism management student right now.
