68: Graduation

Today, my best friend graduated from the University of the Philippines. I can imagine how she feels--an intense happiness brought about by endless learnings, life-changing experiences, and hard work, and a strong fervor the serve the nation.

Those were the same feelings I had around a year ago when I moved a piece of clothing from one shoulder to the other. And although a part of me is captured by the other great university along Katipunan, I will forever be proud and grateful that I am an Iskolar ng Bayan.
