SPEAKING ABOUT THE FUTURE

Mary is very organized with her future, so she’s constantly planning goals and life objectives. We use the FUTURE PERFECT TENSE to express things that we plan to have completed at a certain moment in the future. For example: By next June I will have finished all my exams.
Have a look at Mary’s list of life’s objectives and write about them using the future perfect tense.
