the real world is calling, but i dont want to go yet
there comes a time in one's life that you'll realize that you're not getting any younger. i mean, there are times that i feel as if i can take as much time as i want, to do what i want to do and not caring about anything. But something happens and it dawns on you that so much time has passed and you hadnt noticed a thing while going at your own pace.
When i started out as a college student a couple of years back, the day of graduation seemed so far away and out of reach. I wasnt even sure i'd finish with the major i had started with. To my surprise, i finished my college years last Tuesday, the 7th day of April, 2009. The graduation ceremony was held in the auditorium of one the school's campuses at 7:30 AM. Along with the first half of the 675 students that were graduating that day, i transferred the tassel of my toga from left to right and received my diploma onstage from the dean.
Two days before that, on the 5th of April, 2009, i had my clinical graduation. My grandma's student, who's a chief nurse at one of the hospitals in Cebu, was the one who pinned me, signifying that i had completed the required number of hours of clinical exposure.
I could really say that those two events marked that i'm starting to become an adult and it's time for me to join the workforce!
I'm glad that i graduated, but i feel as if reality is chasing me and i cant catch my breath enough to continue on.
but i'll not think about it and i'll just the best that i can to survive the real world.
so when the real world calls, i'll be ready.
