LETTER OF GRATITUDE

At the moment the very known sound of graduation started and the tassel transferred to the right side of my cap, I reimagined all the things happened to me: trials, joy, opportunities and sufferings; and I have prove at that moment, I made it. I have made it with God's help.
When I was about to march towards the aisle of the stage, my mind reminisce all the happiness I have experienced that soon I will leave behind. The faces of those people who became part of my college life and sources of my strength became clearer in my mind. Each memories they made and pages they created came back in a flash. Then when I have touched my diploma, I whispered to my heart, “thank you God for all of these people I met”. These people became part of my story who had their own chapters in my life. I would like to acknowledge them even if it is just inside my heart.
First, to my Marketing Department Family; Ma'am Riza Taopo, Ma'am Chona Niñal and Mr. Robert Salazar who taught me enough knowledge and skills that I need to have so I can face the world outside. I have discovered the joy working in the field of marketing. I saw the door of opportunities by welcoming and exposing me on the path I need to cross. Those tips, encouragements and advises helped me a lot. Thank you.
To my Editorial Board Family, from the head to its toe, I am very thankful and lucky that I have spent my last year in Asian College with you. The fun and laughter of rush hour and the playful work for the last minute are valuable moments for me – no, it must be priceless. The whole night of works and all events with you guys are unforgettable. My eyes witnessed the things to cherish and those laughters and jokes are still repeating in my mind. Truly Editorial Board members are writers, you have written an eye-catching page in my life. A page that must be read. Of course, our graphic artist were part of it, with them the page became more attractive. To our EIC Grand Master King Gimena, Joseph Macapagal, Shella Perolina together with Jeffrey , My Eugene Gimpaya then his Lisamari Nerval, Al Pagara, Bangs, Bob, Ate MC, my great friend Charlie and my best friend, Ceejhay, thank you.
To the School of Debaters, thank you, yeah this is still debatable. I mean, thank you seems not enough. The confidence I was able to build when I became part of this school is commendable. It equipped me a mind that can easily catch up and make an opinion. Thank you Mr. Alex Gonzales.
Bread Society has a special place in my heart, the society of great wisdom, readers of greatest book and group of people with faith. I found it difficult to put it in words, the feeling of gratitude for all of the experiences I had. It is better for someone to join to understand. It is not about being holy who doesnt commit sins but more on having good attitude, wisdom and understanding in life. So anyone who became part of it will feel thankful to God, for you have found an organization that will play a very special role in your life; Ye, Emelie, Ate Jena, Jhenelyn, KC, Ate Lea, CJ, Cedrick, Mich, Jane, Melvin, Precious, Mr. Jeyo and Sha.
And of course, the organization that I cannot escape to join. Yes it is YES. The organization that gave me a lot of works to do, burdens to carry, time to sacrifice, efforts to put, hardship to endure and most of all, unmeasurable learning experiences that I cannot find and publish in a book. To our adviser, Ms. Leamor, thank you; for all of the shouts I have collected from you, take my warmest appreciation for such wonderful teachings. To all BA students from 1st to 4th year, thank you very much. May these words become enough and suitable to all we experienced inside the school, for the icing melted on our faces and the must hide dance we presented. To my classmates from Masinag you have touched a special part of my heart for those days we have been together.
To Bulatlat Bag Gang who I was always with, thank you for showing me fun that certainly quake my world, for the loud noise and green jokes that ruined my boring life and for being my irreplaceable friends. Because there is only one Abigael Cabungan with unstoppable and unbeatable noise that wake my sleeping heart to have a lively life; there is only one Leslie Chan that made my mind dull but such a darling in my heart; there is only one Mommy Lourdes Bacani who showed love and care that must be appreciated; only one Ate MC Villarin who cleared my noisy environment and hold a trophy of trust and honor. There is only one kind of Rechel Abalajen who is very rare to find, a friend. And of course, my best friend who became my bridge to all opportunities, Carlo James Jagnaan. Thank you for everything. In addition to all BA students who graduated first before us, thank you so much. I would like to mention other important characters in my book of life. To my excellent friend Shareyde Navarro who made my head explode but sharpen my potential. The lady who gave meanings and prove my skills. The great bearer of my stories. To my hyper active friend, the king of all noises and comments, the owner of great laugh and my smiler; Ariel Gimpaya. To my favorite little brother R.E. Bagunu who measured my patience and knowledge and tested my endurance and public service, the one who broke and repair my ego. To Roy Bonilla who left me without a word, my little Kei sungit, Von Visco of fun loving dances, sweet Angela, Lester, Aidyl, Berba, to my close friend Jenneriza Dela Cruz who always there to support me, to Simon, my pekeng INFJ, Jen, Ate Glaiza, to all ACT and CS classmates, to all Asian College Staff: Mr. Jonray, Ms. Collen, Ms. Edith, Ms. Gwen, Mr. Andrew, Mr. Darwin, Ms. May, Mr. Ed, Mr. Ben and to other professors and pioneer employees of ACSAT: Mr. Rael, Ms. Daluma, Mr. Acoba, Mr. Sacay, to my valuable friend Jayjo Ingalla who I cared most and to my special friend Peter Eli Buluran who became my source of inspiration though I guess he do not know that. The person who became my foundation of smile without his knowledge. Thank you so much for everything. You became not only my inspiration but part of my achievements in life thanks to those who have successfully did catfishing on me. But I will keep you in my heart even those things happened were not real.

I will treasure all of these. Something I can reminisce that will make me smile and inspiration to endure and strive once I am in the life of workaholic unmarried man who is just working to satisfied the need of others. Again thank you all for everything.
