Bittersweet.

So this is it. I can’t believe I’m typing my last blog as student blogger. This moment sure came faster than I’d imagined.

Before I go any further, I would first like to say a big thank you to Jane Abraham who made all this possible! And to everyone else behind the scenes, also a big thanks!

I’m grateful that I get to share with everybody everything I want people to know about life in and outside of college. So for those who followed our blogs and vlogs up to this point, THANK YOU!

It is one thing to tell people what’s on your mind but it’s quite another to leave a lasting impact on someone because of what you said. I believe that words are powerful, as they are able to make or break a person. I hope that our future bloggers and vloggers can see what a great opportunity this is to connect with others in a personal way because we all need to be reminded we’re doing a great job even if we don’t feel like it. Or that struggle is inevitable and things won’t always go as smoothly as we hope. Sometimes we need to be reminded that a little bit of light outshines the darkness. That perseverance and integrity are the recipe for any type of success. Maybe on the verge of giving up, you found strength and you want to tell others about it.

Bottom line is, we all need each other.

And to MC for becoming my home these past couple of years, I am forever grateful. Grateful for education. I can’t imagine myself being anywhere else to learn what I’ve learned about life and myself than here. I am grateful for the lasting friendships; I have found my diamonds. Grateful for the lessons, especially the hard ones. Thank you, MC, for allowing me to be myself and helping me become who I am and shaping me to become who I want to be.
