My Most Prized Posession


After more than 10 years of spending my life in school, I have already received my College diploma. I thank God above all for this momentous milestone of mine. Next to my parents who have been always there to guide and nurture me on everything I do. Receiving my college diploma is, indeed, my most prized possession no one could ever, ever take (even if they tried to).

Actually I have prepared a thank you note, it was actually not a note but a whole lot of essay type containing some recollected memories of my entire schooling. It was first posted a day after my graduation and (boom!) got almost hundred of likes.

I am not actually fond of uploading my graduation pictures on my social network site, but I'd rather choose to let selective people see what I look during my graduation. Pictures tagged here and tagged there, and thanks to Facebook that it has lot of security features to hide those freak-like face of mine. 

Recalling my precious schooling reminds me of simple yet memorable experiences of my childhood and adolescence. I remembered joining competitions with my blockmates, some of which include essay writing, slogan making, declamation and oration, poster making, stage plays and many more. I almost got teary eyed at this point of my life that those memories will just be intangible parts of my existence which I cannot make happen again. But nevertheless, these just show how fruitful my schooling was.

Now, as I recall my school days, I have realized that education is really important. This proves your capacity and confidence in letting other people know that you are a dignified individual. Still as a right, but not every one can afford of sending a child to school. So I thank God for that. On seemingly unending problems that bombarded my family, we managed to stand strong as to achieve what we want in life.

Preserving my kindergarten, primary, secondary and tertiary school-related memories will always just be the proof of how I treasure education, but nothing more would equate on the 4 diplomas I received during my entire schooling and the awards I've got (not to mention all).
