greeting to each and everyone.
This graduation day is such a victory. A victory that marks another milestone in our history. A
victory that calls for a great and unforgettable celebration.
As I stand in front of you this (Afternoon), I feel extremely proud and blessed for being one
of the graduates who successfully passed the 2-year of struggling just to reach our dream. A dream
that we finally achieved this day.
Naaalala ko pa ang unang araw ng pagpasok ko sa paaralang ito. Mga bagong mukha, na
may iba’t-ibang pananalita, personalidad at iba-ibang grupo ang aking nakita. ‘Yun yung unang
araw na binalot ng pangamba at hiya ngunit may pananabik na makatagpo ng bagong kaibigan.
Ang buhay sa mataas na paaralang ito ay tunay ngang kakaiba. Ika nga ang yugtong ito ang
pinakamasaya. Batid ko ang kagalakan na nadarama sa ating mga puso at habang ako'y nakatayo
dito ay tanaw ko ang mga ngiti na namumutawi sa bawat mga labi. Para sa amin na mga
magsisipagtapos sa araw na ito, isang malaking pagpapala ang tatanggap kami ng mga medalya at
diploma na simbolo ng aming tagumpay sa kabila ng maraming pagsubok at hadlang dulot ng
matinding kahirapan.
I believe that each of us has our own testimony, and I would like to take this opportunity to
express my gratitude to those who walked with us for this journey.
To our Alma Mater, we salute you for giving us a chance of experiencing our Senior high
School life with confidence that though this school may not be the same as the other institutions,
not as big as the other, but still the quality education is offered with equality.
To our Teachers, we thank you for the patience that you have given to us. We know that it is
not easy to handle us since we have different culture and personalities. Thank you for imparting your
expertise and for training us to be a well-equipped individual. You served not just our teachers but
you are our second parents, counselor and friends that we can count on anytime. You may not hear
our “thank you” or “Salamat” word always but in our hearts we owe you a lot. Thank you for
believing that we can make it until this day comes. You are our teachers. You are not just a hero but
a superhero. You may not be our teachers for the next chapter of our story, but we promise that
your teachings, love and pieces of advice will remain in our hearts and minds forever.
Nais ko ring ipaabot ang aking pasasalamat sa aking mga kaibigan na nagbigay saakin ng
lakas ng loob. Salamat sa mga araw na tayo’y magkakasama in good times and even in bad times.
Sariwa pa sa aking gunita ang bawat tawanan, asaran, kwentuhan, at mga biruan. Salamat sa mga
magagandang alaala na tumatak at mananatili sa aking isipan. Sa pagtungtong ko sa Senior High
School, ang araw na ito ang aking pinakahihintay subalit ito rin pala ang aking kinakatakutan dahil
pagkatapos ng araw na ito, marami sa atin ang magkakahiwa-hiwalay. Sa tuwing naiisip ko ang
ating mga pinagsamahan, hindi ko mapigilan ang malungkot dahil marahil may iba’t-ibang landas
nang tatahakin ang bawat isa. At sinasabi ko sa sarili ko, mamimiss ko talaga ito. Nawa ay hindi dito
magtatapos ang ating pagkakaibigan.
Nais ko rin pong iparating sa lahat ng mga magulang na nadirito ngayon ang aming taos
pusong pasasalamat sa lahat ng motibasyon at pagmamahal na ipinadama ninyo sa amin. Alam
kong marami sa amin ang matigas ang ulo ngunit salamat at nandiyan parin kayo upang patuloy na
gumabay at sumuporta. Batid namin ang inyong mga hirap na pinagdaanan at mga pagsasakripisyo
upang matustusan ang aming mga pangangailangan kung kaya’t ang aming tagumpay na natamo
ay inihahandog namin sainyo. Dahil walang “kami” kung walang “kayo”. Thank you, we love you
and we are proud of you!
Most of all I thank God for staying beside me all the time, for always renewing my strength
whenever I get tired, for giving me courage to keep on going despite of all challenges and above all
for being my greatest provider and for my most loving shepherd.
To my fellow graduates, it’s not the end of our journey but it’s the beginning. We should
strive more and continue to pursue our dreams. Someday we can also wear the black toga that we
aimed. Let us soar high and never stop dreaming.
Nawa’y pagbalik natin sa paaralang ito ay taas noo nating ipagmamalaki ang tagumpay na
ating natatamo.
