The ramblings of Charlotte
This post will be my last farewell to our dog Sakura. She was very pretty, sweet and the cutest dog I’ve ever seen. She passed away just this morning. It’s sad that she didn’t even turn into 2 years old.
I can still remember the time when she was given as a pet to my younger brother. Till the time that she waits for me to arrive from my work. We already miss Sakura and no one can ever replace her.
On April 6, 2009 the Ama Computer Learning College held its 11th Commencement Exercises. For me and for most of my classmates, this day is but a dream.
The program took a whole day to finish, which the school divided into two parts, the morning was our Achievement Day, while our Graduation was held in the afternoon.
During this day I received a total of three awards, The Best Thesis, Best in Java and On Job Training Excellence. Though only two of the awards had medals. I don’t belong to the Cum Laude though, since I’m very picky with my subjects, and I don’t have much patience to study.
After four years of pressure and hard work, we finally reached the last line of our college lives. This day being a very joyful moment for us, I do feel sadness to leave the school, and missing my classmates. Now, I’ll be “officially” facing work life (since I have been working since I was 17 on a part-time/contractual basis). I wish all the best for me, and for my classmates and to all graduates for this year!
Here are some pictures of my graduation together with my family, Rog and some closefriends. By the way, I had thick make-up in the afternoon which don’t go well with the lighting at the venue.
Patchen and Me
I am very happy to see the photos of me and Patchen during our sembreak (the last week of October), uploaded today at Friendster. She was my classmate during high school for four years. She is also a graduating student with the same course as me, but enrolled in a different school. Sad but true, she is studying in Cebu, while I’m still here in our hometown, Tacloban City. She still visits Tacloban City during holidays and sembreaks.
This sembreak, we managed to hang out for a day, only for one day though due to my thesis submissions and other major projects that was keeping me busy. The entire day was fun, roaming around downtown, playing badminton, chatting to our heart’s content and we ended up having snacks at my mom’s office.
