Graduation Day

2009

Filed under: Special Events

It was our graduation day yesterday. Technically, I graduated October last year but the recognition rites are held every April. At first I considered not attending due to financial matters, but now I’m glad that I did. :D I’ve never been prouder than when I walked up to the stage and claimed my graduation certificate. The people around me were happy and rejoicing, I could not help but feel good about my achievement as well. :laugh:

That pic was taken after the recog rites, that’s my friend since high school Doodz and me on the right, we’re wearing that maroon-green sash called “sablay” over our white dresses. :) The man with arms wide open in the background is named ‘Oble’, short for ‘Oblation’, the symbol used by my alma mater. :D

Forgive me if my updates are becoming weekly again, I had been busy with graduation preparations and my paid theme services. Now it’s over, I now have more time and hopefully I’d be able to return your comments soon. :)

One of my past clients had just opened her online shop Peppermnt Pals. She sells handmade jewelries, stuffed animal and homemade lip balms at affordable prices. :laugh: I hope you can visit, maybe you’d find something you like! ;)

                                              *sigh* Kakainggit, gusto ko na ring mag-graduate (sa masteral) para magkasablay na rin ako, haha! ^^; Super congrats, dear. I knew the soaring feeling of pride and gratitude to God and your parents and friends will make all the financial burdens worth it. ^_^

                                              And I think your visitors should know that you’re from the PREMIER STATE UNIVERSITY OF YOUR COUNTRY, and graduating alone from UP is already a feat in itself. So proud of you! :clap:

                                              And I think you shouldn’t worry about your entries becoming weekly. It’s your blog; you do what you want with it! XD

                                                                                              First of all - congratz on your graduation! I wish you all the best in your life!

                                                                                              And yes I must agree - what Ai~ is doing on Beautifique (sorry if I misspelled - I always did misspell her domain name *LOL*) with the domain give away contest is a really good idea…that is awesome! I think I may do something like that on my hosting network for my 30th birthday which is in two weeks (sorry if am pimpin my b-day out *LOL* - bad habbit I know…*LOL*)

                                                                                              I also want to add - a domain give away contest is also a great way to meet others too…but that is just my own personal opinion…

                                                                                              Anyways, take care hun and have a good nite
