I remember way back then, sometime in May 2007 when I attended the orientation of new students in Asia Pacific College, I said and promised to myself that, "I'm going to graduate on this school," while wearing a smile in my face.

Right now, those words I said before, that promised I made before has now converted into reality.  Like a man seeking a way to a certain place, now in the end of the road and ready to enter the place he was looking for.  I already graduated from college, the days where I used to be student has just ended and now ready to face a new life.  The beginning of the real challenges in life.

Month from now, I will be entering the concrete jungle where I need to battle against other people to survive, using skills to be hired first in the top and fast growing organization before others.  Battling with companies to companies, business to business, making strategies and decision that will decide your fate.  This is the new life that I will be facing, and it's just the beginning,  I maybe still not ready for this, but I will surely and rest assured to myself that I am going to be ready.  I believed that confidence and competency are the factors that must be equipped of to become ready and to survive this fight.

But even though being a student days has passed, learning will always be there.  Even though I am not going to school anymore to study, I will able to learn by means of experience, just like in the mmorpg's, the more experience you will gain, the stronger you will be.  With or without our consent, everyday we will learn new things that we can used and apply to our very own life that would make our life worth it and meaningful.
I miss this, I just miss doing this late at night, relaxing music and solemn yet calm night.  I remember the days when I used to be in front of the PC, just in front of PC doing nothing, but just listening to relaxing music.  With a calm mind and has nothing to think of, without worrying about tomorrow's assignment or quizzes, next week's project, next day's presentation and etc.; thinking of just scenarios that happened, sad memories that was being buried in past and happy memories that used to cherish all the time.  Thinking of what will happen tomorrow and in the future, about goal and dreams. Talking with God, thanking for all the blessings that I received, asking forgiveness for all the sins I've done and asking for guidance and protection for me and my family all the time.  I just miss doing this, and right now, again, just like the old times, here in front of PC, media player on, using my spare time putting my thoughts into words.  I just love doing this.
