19 hours and counting (and although you might doubt yourself at times, yes you are special...)
i have never been so inspired in my life than this day. im awake for more than 19 hours, but i never regret the decision i made.
i attended our recognition day earlier this morning, and though it was hell early i still managed to get up and go. while sheila and i were on our way to LRT, i noticed a lot of people swarming around hurrying like ants to get where they needed to be. i told myself, how and where in the hell does this people get the strength to wake up so early and go wherever they need to go with such "i am not thinking about what i am doing, my body knows what to do" approach. i was stunned. not because i have a laid back attitude but because of the thought that does these people ever get the chance to thank God for this day, when all they do is hurry? i don't know but i am still puzzled.
we were early. very early.
the recognition was quite long but i really love this message from the priest who delivered the prayer "...and although you might doubt yourself at times, yes you are special..." i started thinking. i always doubt myself, and probably 99% of the time i have a 50% possibilty of regreting the decisions i made. but maybe... i am special too, and the priest says " in countless ways!" and i almost forgot, it felt really nice when mam d gave me a hug after i went down from the stage to get my certificate, i really felt her warmest and sincerest congratulations, like it was her children who actually receive those honors.
we went back to school to catch up on our subjects and luckily there wasn't anything much to do, i got 2 full hours to read newspaper and the new bluprint magazine on the library, it was very relaxing. i always have this fascination and enthusiasm over design particulary interior and architecture, it's on the blood i think.
later in the evening i read a very wonderful appreciation blog from rainer, it was very touching. so i ask him if i can repost it.
before i went down to my classroom and while waiting for the elevator. my friends and i got into this nice bulletin post for graduates, it says ladder to success or steps to success, where u can see how far have u gone, by just the decisions you made. from "i wont - i did" at this time of my life i am still far behind , because im on the "i think i can" step, and there's a lot more to go through to be on the "i did" step. i know the pond will keep expanding, but i will continue growing too. i will be there. and that's what i decided to do.
