Bye College!


Your families are extremely proud of you. You can't imagine the sense of relief they are experiencing. This would be a most opportune time to ask for money.







Just about a month from now I'm set adrift, with a diploma for a sail and lots of nerve for oars.
~Richard Halliburton


At last! 4 years of endless reading, sleepless nights browsing bulky incomprehensive books, and duties in far-flung community and hospitals are over. Cheers to our parents who made this triumph all possible. it was worth the cash and hardships.

There are only two things to ponder when you graduate. The good and the bad news. The good one is that you were able to celebrate for having completed your responsibility as a student and march with all smiles glued up with your parents who are accountable for everything. (thanks mom and dad). Next, the bad news. Leaving all your friends behind and you'll be left alone striving to survive in the real world.
There is a good reason they call these ceremonies "commencement exercises." Graduation is not the end; it's the beginning. Indeed, everyone calls it "the stepping stone". It's a battle of survival.
