Yesterday,
I heard so many sentiments from my classmates and true, they were afraid not to
graduate together. I understand their grounds, yes. Their parents and
their relatives are expecting them to graduate this March.
The
thing that I noticed was the thought of not letting each other flank.
Why? That was not a matter of camaraderie, of friendship, or of being
together—that was more of self-interest. The speaker yesterday admitted
(as I saw it in how she spoke and moved) that it would be hard for her to
graduate because of her grade standings that was why she wanted the smart ones
to have their ways in talking to the professors (this style was effective last
year). This simple slip of her tongue made her sound so desperate.
That day, desperation was the only way to clear things up… whether all of
them will march this March or not.
