still a student

i was at the mall with my friends one afternoon. we were strolling and then i saw the manequins diplayed in the department store, dressed in school uniforms. i told them to look at it, then they sighed "aaahhh..." then we realized, it's back to school again.
then i realized... i would not be going to school again (that is, if i will not pursue a 2nd degree). i would not be buying school supplies and i would not be seeing my classmates and college friends as well.
these thought iv'e often ponder... it was almost a week after we graduated. yes! we're already professionals although i can't feel it at the moment because my heart stiil is a student. it somehow makes me feel sad everytime the thought of leaving school and not seeing my classmates often, hit me. other than that are the so many things we did in the past that might not be repeated again and would just be banked in the so-called "memory..."
our class-the most outstanding graduating class of our college; my classmates; college friends, tribu; orgmates; our newspaper-The Journ Post, and all staff, press work, articles; PAo people, and of course our loving professors... i will so miss them...
these days, mothers are busy buying school supplies for their kids. children on the other hand are excited to go to school. that was my feeling before during same days, though in the middle of the school year i was visited with laziness because of the same routine everyday" you wake up, then go to school, listen to teacher, then exams, recitations, assignments, blah-blah... or if you are into orgs, you'll have practice during weekends..
....elementary and high school days....
although 60 percent of the scenario is the same, still, there's the 30% difference among the people, the teachers and most especially, the environment we cope with. but, at the end of the day, you'll realize that everything, despite the differences, is an experience, and an experience to learn...
... i'm a graduate now.. and will be entering a new world... i know that what i've learned in the past 15 years may not be enough to face the challenges of life. still, i have to learn... just like a student...
