Online or Face-to-Face Graduation, Believe Your College Period Will Never Be Wasted

.To be honest, college is one of the toughest times in life. Migrate and live far from their parents, not to mention that college with endless assignments. There are times when you can only cry and want to go home, but the situation says, "hold on a little."

Not to mention when you get acquainted with the world of work. Ups and downs equate steps so that you don't get stressed out while you are dragging your feet so you can have extra money. Yes, even though the submissions from parents are sometimes much larger. For the sake of years of struggle forging ourselves, the moment of graduation seems to be enough to give an injection of enthusiasm to be more confident in entering the world of work. Moreover, you have already imagined how the smile of the ladies and gentlemen when you take the photo with the gown. Ah, it must be happy ~

For some people, graduation is just a ceremony. But for you, this is proof that you can actually complete your studies

Still remember how last year you worked on your thesis. Nights of minimal sleep until you almost give up because you can be a very perfectionist mentor, you have been through all of this. Ladies and gentlemen have also repeatedly asked, "When will the thesis be finished? The neighbor's child graduated two months ago ~ "

This will make you more motivated, to finish what you have started. It is also a moment of proof that you can actually complete your studies.

But the reality says different. What you have planned, apparently (forced) cannot be realized

Six months had all this happened. Your life is also quietly adapting. Now there are no more shaking hands when meeting people. There are no high-fives or warm hugs when welcoming you. And there are no more graduation ceremonies like the usual years. Even though you have made a plan to be on the podium while receiving proof of your graduation and taking pictures with you. Never mind graduation, you can't even go back to your hometown from last Eid. It's bittersweet, as if your four years of forging yourself only ended with a virtual meeting. It's sad to imagine that your parents can't watch you "graduate" from college.

Dear those of you who have graduated face to face, please know that what you have been doing so far has never been in vain

Well, it's pointless to go to college for 4 years but not graduate! Is this what it is? Is it just an online graduation? There will never be the word "just" to "wasted" from your four years in college there. All your sweat and fatigue, believe me, will be useful and become an asset for you to face the real world. Moreover, the struggle that you have done and the knowledge that you have gained. It will never be wasted. Like sea water that evaporates, clumps into clouds and then rain drops. You only need time and opportunity to prove that there is never vanity. Now it's okay to graduate without meeting face-to-face, so that later you and all of us can get together as usual

It's not meant to dwarf the meaning of graduation, but in order to get back together with loved ones, delaying this wish seems like a wise choice to do. Sad? Certainly! Disappointed? What else is this! But the future you will definitely smile proudly and thank you. Thank you for completing studies. Thank you for enduring and going through all of this. And thank you for being a human who doesn't only think about yourself 🙂
