Kalo boleh dibilang, hari wisuda itu adalah hari yang sudah aku tunggu-tunggu sejak dua tahun yang lalu. Dulu, yang ada dalam pikiranku cuma 'aku ga boleh kelamaan lulus'. Dan alhamdulillah semuanya berhasil terwujud, meskipun jalannya mungkin sempet bikin stress sampe pada titik dimana aku cuma bisa ketawa bingung.
Sebelum akhirnya hari wisuda itu datang, aku terus berdoa supaya di hari itu ga ada hal yang aku sesali. Aku berharap semuanya berjalan lancar, menyenangkan, dan ga ada hal yang membuat aku mengalami mood-swing. Dan alhamdulillah lagi, semuanya kesampaian.
Sejak bangun pagi, aku udah ngumpulin kepercayaan diri sebanyak-banyaknya. Selama ini aku ngeliat acara wisuda ITS, euphorianya ga nahan. Tiap jurusan punya 'jurus' keren masing-masing untuk menyambut wisudawannya. Something worth to be remembered. Setelah acara pengukuhan di Graha ITS selesai, semuanya balik ke jurusan masing-masing. Ciri khasnya jurusanku adalah, sebagai jurusan yg letaknya paling deket sama Graha, pasukan penyambut wisudawan adalah para umbrella boys (?) dari kalangan maba, yang mayungin wisudawan sampe ke jurusan. Seems like those kids accomplished their mission well. I don't know whether they were enjoy it or not, but seriously they looked like good kids XD
Saat nyampe di jurusan, udah di sambut sama kouhaitachi dengan berbagai acara dan ucapan selamat sana-sini. Yah meskipun mungkin cuma formalitas dan basa-basi, but that was heartwarming. Beberapa temen yang udah lulus juga dateng. It's been a while, I was kinda eager to see them X'D
The day was filled with smile and laughters. Even if the sun shined so brightly and dropped our sweat, everything seems fine. I didn't regret anything from the start, I'm being thankful for every little things that occurred as expected, even beyond my expectation. Yeah, every-little-things.
I adore that gray kebaya and veil which I wore with my own style *keep reminding that I have a very low self-esteem when it comes to wearing clothes that was not refers to my daily style. At least the color was still 'gray', like the most of the clothes I have on my wardrobe XD*
I fit comfortably with the extremely simple make up I put on my face.
I found that graduation party managed by those juniors were awesome.
I noticed that everyone is happy, in their own way..
With those loads of joy I saw, I felt, in the end, what left in me is.... an uneasy feeling, like what I said before.
The day that I've been anticipated so hard has gone and bring me to the upcoming days with various unseen steps. What's awaiting me ahead? I don't even yet to know where I should go, but yeah I'll keep walking in my own pace. I'm gonna let this memory of graduation as a precious keepsake for my future.
Thank you ITS, for these amazing five years of struggles. Being a college student was a miracle for me. I picked so many lessons, I've met so many people with various way-of-thinking, I was up against numerous irritating obstacles and solved it finally. For you who are still struggling on uni, never ever give up, keep on going. Just enjoy your days, with that bunch of assignments and deadlines, treasure every single days with your beloved friends, strike on every chance you can get to improve yourself. Don't forget to keep your health in a good condition, because you'll get lack of sleep *college student's first world problem*. Don't be too timid, you'll never ever regret it anyway :)
Bonus : A simple prove that I officially graduated. This photo also appeared on my instagram account. tee-hee!
kind of empty isn't it? yeah, I only include the 'official' souvenirs :))
NB :
that 'Sotsugyō' (卒業 ) I put as the title of this post is Japanese word meaning 'graduation'.
