Now Playing: I will survive

Right at this very moment, you're writing a draft for your blog. You are finding it hard to keep your promise to yourself to update your blog weekly not because you have no time, but you're running out of ideas. You are not sure if anyone took a time to read your blog because you have no specific theme. You are blogging for yourself so that you could improve your way of writing.

Two days from now, you will be officially unemployed for three months. You are still trying your very best to beat the usual "6 months of bum life" by applying through  walk-in and online in different companies. You are starting to feel hopeless, but something came as a surprise: someone called then you still said "no".

You said to yourself that you have the right to choose; therefore, you have the right to say "no". Everyone says that you should not be picky on your first job, but you just want to use the skills you believe that you have. You wish to develop something new also.  It will take a very long ride to have a spot on the industry that you want, but that does not mean you will not go there someday.

Look and take the life after school as an adventure. This is a wild adventure, where you start from zero, despite the pressure you're feeling. You cannot deny that there is a competition in the real world, but you can avoid it.  Competition is a common event, where there will be labels. Labels are created to evaluate, rather than  to define you.

Think of all the times you thought that you can't ace your thesis presentation, the time that you're trying hard to find a thesis consultant, the time that you  thought that there's no way out of your irregular student life.  Guess what? 

From writing a draft, your group made the first three chapters, and survived thesis A. You moved to thesis B with the guidance of a person, you thought you would never found, a thesis consultant. (Thanks to your cousin, who helped you.) There you go, you survived.

You will find a job soon, after the trial and error operation. You will be accepted at the entry level of your career. You prayed so hard for this new adventure of making a living out of something.

Keep on praying. Keep on going.  You will be surprised to find out that sooner or later, you have  survived your adult life.
