Surprise!
I’m now a graduate of Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering! Yep, after eight years of college! But please subtract two years of working, and one year having been a “victim” of the change curriculum. I was supposed to graduate last 2005.
Still, I’m happy to graduate this year. I told you before, haven’t I? School is sweeter the second time around!
The ceremony went well this morning. The weather was okay. Everyone was having a good time. Except maybe of that evol thing the lady (who I praised highly before) did, I was enjoying the whole ceremony. I sincerely loved Father Salazar’s homily; I truly do. Methinks he’s a very good orator, not to mention a fantastic storyteller!
After the recession, my family and I went home directly. We celebrated my graduation with a simple thanksgiving. Few hours after, I went straight to Cebu Business Park for a job interview! On the afternoon, Roy, I, and couple of friends in college met up and had a celebration at Gimik, Mango Square. There we had a blast. We sang, er, screamed and shrieked the night away. Macoi didn’t make it because scatterbrained that he was, he slept like dead the whole afternoon.
I went home past 9:00 AM. Yup, early than usual. But I was delightfully surprised when friends from the community showed up at home with ice cream, pizza, drinks, and a gift in tow! I didn’t invite them in the afternoon because I told them we weren’t throwing a party. But… understandable and loving that they are, they still surprised me!
Webster should attach surprise in the definition of friendship. And speaking of surprise, I still have to push thru the one I supposed to give last week. =)
