GRAMMAR FOCUS:
Time clauses
By the time I was in high school, I had gotten my first job.
The moment I got my first job, I felt like a different person.
Before I had my first job, I was really immature.
Once you have a job, you learn to be more independent.
After I finished high school, I realized that I still had a lot to learn.
As soon as I graduated, I started to be more sensible.
Until you graduate, you don’t understand that life is just beginning.
