I graduated but...
This year was the fifth and last year of studying in INSAT. I always thought I would have amazing moments with friends during this year,unfortunately it was the worst ;(( I realized that many people that I considered as my dearest friends were just not, so I started doughting about human values, the real importance of things... Last wednesday, we were all waiting for our results, then it was finally put on that wall. I went alone to see if I passed, I must say I was confident, but I couldn't help feeling scared. I was quite happy to see my name on that paper, that meant that I was an engineer now ;)) The most exciting thing was that my name was the first on the list. I wanted to jump, to screem, to shout... but the only thing I did was to smile, tears come up to my eyes but I couldn't ccry either. At that moment, I felt so lonely no body was there to share this great moment with me, that was a terrible feeling. Hopefully my phone was there, I called my parents and then some relatives called me... The atmosphere itself was horrible, that was INSAT, that was the Bio section. Oh of course, there was some exceptions, we even went to a coffe shop to celebrate this event but we were only 15 people from 90 students... I think it's really bad that this challenging spirit affects human relations especially between students. I thought we could only find this climate of conflict and competition in companies and firms. I was undoughtebly wrong, I feel stupid but I'm quite happy I won't deal with these persons and tis hypocrisy any longuer.

Hello Mariem. I understand what you are feelin'. At times, I feel the same too. Suddenly its like you feel alone, and wonder what the hell happened. And when that happens, I realize that the best thing to feel is a sense of achievement deep down inside. People are just there to say Congratulations. And not to be dependent on there appreciation and to develop the confidence inside us to be able to grow from it. So that the our happiness does not depend on anyone else. Not to be overwhelmed by the situation and belittle or feel sad about our achievements because there was no one to celebrate it with. I dunno but I've come through the hard way... and being an extra-sensitive person that I am, I have learnt to rise above it all. You don't have to deal with these people. What you are feeling is hurt cos you had no one to celebrate it with. But thats how people are. Nurse no anger, but get on with it. They'll learn there way. :) I hope this has helped. Cheers! V

a little late may be!! Hi Mariem first of all and more important than any and every thing else: congratulations and mabrook. Honey you are turninig over a page of your life . you have to make sure that the university one is over. not because it's bad or good. no. because it is a past. some thing that took its course and its bad and good and ended. well 15 persons of 90 is not bad at all. I have only 2 from 24 who are still my friends till now from my patch. and for your information, they were not the closest to me in college days. they were my friends but not ranked as 1 or even 5. now I am discovering everyday that lots of those whome I considered friends were not. they don't have to be bad. but simply, life takes people away. some of them are married and busy with their new families, otheres travelled abroad . some ppl has just stopped calling . some were making use of me and I don't have any thing to give now. the funny thing is , I am graduated since 3 years now. some of my friends have not called me even once since then. this winter when they knew that I was hired in the faculty, they are trying to recall me. some of them even are coming to my office and I don't remember their names. throw all that behinde your back. you have a very very wide life calling you. go answer. good luck
