NO TITLES NEEDED!

HURRRAYYY!! Am the happiest person i know today.

I am a graduate! full fledged! The ceremony is in a few hours and am blogging right before i start getting ready, see how much i love blogsville? lol

I never thought this day would come, well not that i didnt, but not this fast. When ure at a certain stage in your life, you keep thinking something is far from you and its going to Take forever to get there, but i guess my own my own forever just became now.

I am excited not cos am graduating but also because i graduate with a high honours degree. YES I SAID IT! IN BLOGSVILLE, I SAID IT! lol!

My parents are also here for the grad so i guess its almost like a double celebration cos i never thought they would make it since my muM has this huge fear of flying(dont know the phobia name)but she braced herself and still came.. life just became even more beautiful!

ok i was feeling kind of bad yesterday because i wanted to win the award for the best student in the department(which only goes to the first best), i worked hard, played less, read more, but i didnt quite cut it, i came tantalizingly close, but someone else beat me to it. i was quite sad then i talked to my parents and i felt better cos they were proud of me no matter what.

And then am on my facebook and my horoscope for the day says(dont know if you guys believe in horoscopes but i kinda like to read them and see if they relate, this one so does!):
"Capricorn: Hard work doesn't always pay off in the way you'd like, but you can still be proud you did it!"

SEE??
what more can i say...

AM PROUD OF MYSELF!

CONGRATS!!!!

I wanted to be the best graduating student in undergrad. Someone else beat me to it. I was soo jealous. I realized she had put in more effort than I did.

I later realized that being first or second or third did not make that much difference. When you start working, it is a different world. People will respect you for what you have inside and your contributions, not your grade.

That horoscope reading was too close...sure you didn't tell them what to write :-)

why this sedulous task?
For it is vanity to compete
when we know we are complete'
