Seems like yesterday when you welcomed a new school year, isn’t it? Now, half of it has already passed and in no time, another semester is going to rock your road.
Looking back, what happened to you? Did you promise things to yourself and made them come true, or did you just make another boulevard of broken vows? Did you tell yourself to study harder and did it, or did you just let it remain as words?
Were you able to save money just like what you told yourself at the beginning of the school year? Were you able to treat others better than you used to do (or maybe, because it’s what you should actually do)? Were you able to touch someone’s life? Were you able to make a difference?
Were you able to hit your target grades? Reach your goals? Widen your friendship avenue? Were you able to make the past five months count? Did your your grades become your world (Hello, grade conscious people!)?
Questions may be running on your mind now, or maybe answers – if you’re actually contemplating at this point of time. Go through the yesterdays one by one, beginning the fourth of June, that day when you entered Pamantasan and stepped on its newly-polished floors by the PDSPO to greet you a new semester.
You may be proud enough because you’ll be able to make it to the Dean’s List, or maybe because you won’t be taking the Comprehensive Examination (so far), or maybe because you got grades higher than what you have expected and hoped for, or maybe because things really just went good for you during the semester that had just passed.
You may be covered with regrets now because you did not do well enough, or disappointed because events weren’t really kind to you. You’ll be taking the Comprehensive Examination (you better start reviewing now if you want to stay). You’re on probation. You lost your scholarship. You lost a friend (or worse, maybe your girlfriend or your boyfriend – chill, you’re still young).
Whatever you feel, it’s important for you to answer this question: have you learned what you’re supposed to learn? In accounting? In your other subjects? Have you learned what you’re supposed to learn…in life?
If you did, then very well! If not, you have the whole break to think hard of what you should do.
Just one last piece of advice: don’t waste your time thinking of what you should’ve done – it’s over, step forward and move on.
