Everything Happens for a Reason -- DOST Scholarship

Weeks passed by since the result of the DOST scholarship exam came out. I have already absorbed that fact and I have already accepted it.

It was during our class in EDP when a group from media interrupted our class and asked for me. They asked for an interview. Ohmygoodness.

That day, unluckily, was the day I didn't exert an effort to look good. I mean, I got a messy and unruly hair that day and I didn't even combed my hair when I put it on a ponytail on the side.

That was just a short interview though. But still, it was embarrassing for me. I am not used to be the one talking more in a conversation. I am more of a listener than a speaker.

Also, they filmed me during my class like ajhdjhfuhgkagk. How can I be able to concentrate on the activity I'm doing? Feeeeerk, that was so intimidating. I am sooo conscious with my actions. My hands were extra shaking like hell.

But after that, I've realized something-- that maybe the reason why I didn't pass the exam on my first try is that there is something more than just merely passing the exam. That there is this recognition that I will have. That this is the thing I deserve. That for once in my life, I deserve to have a recognition where more people will know about it. Where my achievement is something worthy to be news about.

Even though how happy I was about that recognition, about that interview, I didn't have the guts to share the world that I had the chance to be interviewed. I didn't even tell it to my family. Hahaha.
