Nowadays, the biggest worry of a graduating student is what to do after graduation. With the increasing number of unemployed and dropouts, we cannot deny the fact that only some can pursue their studies up to college.
Most of us dream to be somebody in the future, with this in mind, we visualize as smart figures dressed in elegant clothes having our own spacious office. But how can we go about this?
Our parents live and work from day to day for our simple needs and simple our plain needs and simple dreams. We need basic and necessary things. But the truth is, we are having a hard time in trying to cope with such need and to turn our dreams into reality. Today, we are far away from the quality of life we had years ago. Who would not complain about the present cost of living?
The economic crisis is a common pain and burden for our desire to a good life or at least for survival. In these days, how can families with low income acquire education? People are still looking for ways to make both ends meet and yet, they always run short of funds. What then is the future of the graduating class? What’s in store for them in the future?
A new struggle for a new world for our young graduates. Amidst these problems, the only thing we can do is not lose hope. Instead work hard for a brighter future, hold on to your dreams and never give up. As they say, “Reach the unreachable star.”, and that will be our goal.
