The end of the beginning

The light was too strong that I couldn’t see the people in front of me , my eyes kept searching for my family to smile to them and to take some pictures for me” their daughter”. Sitting decently wearing my cap and gown, it feels like you are receiving a certificate of PhD, listening to the doctors giving some speeches about the university and students. In my mind I was just thinking it is just the end of the beginning, yeah!

I finished university, yet it is nothing compared to the real world where you get to meet the real people and learn how to deal with them, it is no longer your nice friends, teachers. Moving from one stage to another in life is a necessary process towards more development, and indeed every one likes to move towards the better in life.

 

Nowadays looking for a good job is not only the problem of males in the society, but also females, too much people with high quality standard of education create an outstanding competition among those who want to work.

 

University degree is not enough; to compete with others you must have masters or PhD and work experience which is the most important thing any company asks for.

Moreover, the more you have a high degree of education and work experience the more your salary increase, thus completing your education is considered a must for a better opportunity of a good job.

 

On the other hand, new graduates who work, and due to the lack of experience take very low salaries, that can barely be enough to buy food, hang out with friends or   spend it on transportation; as a result most new graduates rely on their parents in the issue of money. Although, a lot of people especially guys do not find it a problem to find a job, because most are working in their parents companies or their own business

So studying was not an achievement, it is only for the sake, not be called ignorant or uneducated in the society.

 

Finally, I heard calling my name, I stood up greeted my family and walked on the red carpet, it was pretty cool I felt like walking on the red carpet in Oscar ceremony!

I received my certificate ,and hand shake with the doctors then back to my seat full of happiness that I graduated ,and was ready for the after graduation party.
