I guess it is right of them to say that when you enter college, it is either you grow apart or you remain friends. For us, we never lose our closeness. I think it is because we hang out every now and then. But even though we would not message in our chat group, the closeness is still intact. We do really understand that every one of us was chasing our dreams.
Recently, our friendship got together for our friend's success. On the recent licensure examination for Mining Engineering, my friend fortunately passed! And not just pass the exam but even made it to the top 8! Impressive right? We were all so happy for her achievement.
We are still not complete here because some of our friends are reviewing for their licensure examination.
With that, she had an intimate celebration with us her friends, and her family at her home. It was only us her close friends who got invited and some of her relatives that made the celebration so intimate. Tita, her mom, was the one who cooked all the food. She told us that she started to cook starting the morning till early dinner. It just shows that she was very delighted to cook for that celebration.
This is the cake that we gave her, Her photo there was from a YouTube thumbnail that our classmate created five years ago. The good thing was that she didn't get angry at us for using that photo. Hahahaha!
There at her home, we enjoyed the sumptuous dinner that was prepared for us. and while we waited for our other friends to arrive, we sang at the karaoke and started to drink. The celebration even got happier when our friends arrived. As the quote says, "The more, the merrier." Indeed, it was happier when they arrived.
I am so happy for my friend for passing and topping the board exams. I may not have witnessed all of her struggles while reviewing but I saw the determination in her. She was one of the top-performing students in our class back in senior high school and no doubt that she was able to achieve that.
As I asked her during the celebration what are her plans, she told me that she takes it easy and enjoys the rest of her deserve and needed vacation after reviewing for her boards. I am glad to know that she has already been receiving offers from different companies present in the country. Step by step she is now reaching her dreams.
My friends from high school are now reaching their dreams and starting to get their licenses and some of them are already working and I know one day that it is going to be my turn. But for now, I will give the spotlight to them in achieving their respected professional titles, and as for me, I must continue to garner knowledge in the field of Veterinary Medicine that I must use someday.
Congratulations to all the board passers!
