THESIS(?) - A Thing of the Past.

Before, whenever I heard the word THESIS..I immediately got overwhelmed with so much dread & laziness...but now..

It is just a thing of the past.

*****

The grueling THESIS has finally come to an end. [weeehw!] That was really something. It is more than a requirement to graduate. I think it is the last challenge every college student should experience to mature. I've encountered a lot through it.


I've learned how to deal with really difficult people.[or so I thought?]

I've come to understand how different personalities can work as one.

I've known how 'kapal ng mukha' one can be.

..and I think the most important thing I learned is that I've come too know more deeply my alter-ego.MYSELF.

I was pushed to the limit..I even thought of giving up. I've learned how one's perception & way of thinking can change his/her fate.

Although I consider it a CURSE I am still thankful that I didn't skip this one.

When I finally saw the hard bound copy...I didn't know what to say. I was a magnificent by-product of our sweat, blood, sacrifice & hard work!
I was like a new father seeing his new-born child.




[picture not mine]

It was so surreal.



So enough of the drama.

The road to a new life awaits.

Thank you so much Lord! [tears]

Another group mate named Mae is not in the picture.so sorry.

So GROUP 8 of BS Psychology Major in Industrial Psychology bids goodbye to the grueling past & excitedly awaits the future.

Anyway, our thesis just to give you a little info about our THESIS, it was about the relationship/implication/correlation of Employee Job Satisfaction to Their Absenteeism.

Heroes of the Modern UCC - The working Students

Credits: Sorry I randomly searched the pics above from google images.

Lurking around UCC, observing students, eavesdropping & roaming the streets & mall have awakened my mind about my fellow UCCians dillema. They or should I say WE are all crying for our expenses.

Majority of us is poor. We pay a maximum of 3,000 pesos & a minimum of 800 pesos tution fee yet we still cry for help. Fortunately , we have learned not only to ask for tissue paper to wipe our tears but also to wipe it & worked it out. We are the working students, who I think is becoming a major hero of our own lives. We learned that nothing can take us out of the situation unless we do something about it & we do it vigorously. The heroes I'm talking about are found in SM supermarket, hypermarket, Jollibbee, McDonalds, call centers & on the streets late at night or nearly dawn struggling to survive, & brave the way to classrooms with so little sleep. Sometimes we pride ourselves as those experienced in jobs even before graduation but on the other side we are "missers". We miss a lot of school activities which are supposedly harnessing our talents & gifts. We miss the bonding times with our friends & classmates. We miss some lessons due to absences & tardiness. We miss a lot. But we are still thnakful that we are given the chance to change the path to take in the future.
