Life after graduation

Posted in Journal at 11:48 pm by erald17

At least by now I can say that indeed I am graduating after my name has been posted in the list of students who will be marching at the end of the school year. And the very common question now among graduates is: What kind of life awaits me after graduation? So here I am giving my very own version of the answer to the question.

I had always been excited to graduate. The very day is what I had always been waiting for. While typical students would have mixed feelings upon graduating, I am more likely to feel happier than ever. It has always been a thrill to me to go a notch higher. Neither have I considered graduation a goodbye because it is always possible for graduates to meet later on in their lives. Rather, graduation is a celebration of independence. This is the true beginning of the times when we are going to make decisions based on our own liking and thinking - intelligent and wise decisions at that.

In the last days, I faced several choices as to what I would and should be doing after college. Is it a) pursue law; b) work; c) both a and b; or d) none of the above?

Let’s just say that today, I have confidence level of 80% with letter a. And the remaining 20% would be determined by the possibility of letter c.

I “might” go to a university in the capital. More probably to the Greenest Campus located along Recto. I would have to start my life all over again in a different place - to focus on my PRIORITIES in life. Brothers and sisters, let’s all hope and pray for the best!
