It
is adored and valued for its brilliance and for being the strongest and hardest mineral on
earth. However, with such brilliance comes a price. Before diamonds become the
epitome of beauty everyone is seeking for, they undergo immense pressure with long
years of collecting minerals and deposits. Standing before you in this podium, with this
view in front of me and with all these eyes I’m looking at, I can confidently say I am
seeing brilliance.
To the RVM Sisters, to our School Principal; Ma’am Estrella V. Layno, to our
SHS Coordinator; Ma’am Pamela G. Dalman, distinguished guest, the ever supportive
parents, my fellow graduates, associates and friends, Ladies and Gentlemen. Let me all
welcome you to Class 2018-2019 Graduation Ceremony with heartfelt greetings and
renowned salutations. A Good Afternoon to all!
Today, we have here the life giving forces of Saint Michael’s college basic
education department. The people who enriched us with knowledge and whose
teachings left imprints of values in our hearts. In behalf of Class 2018/9, I’d like to thank
all of you, for all the encouragements you showered us and the challenges you put us
through. Because of which, we were able to showcase our abilities and discovered
potentials we thought we don’t possess. Indeed, a good teacher talks, a better teacher
explains but a great teacher inspires and this institution is blessed to have teachers like
such. (rots kaau ka mims. Plastic hahahahahaha)
Our parents too are here, ever so proud to share this moment with us. We are
truly and beyond grateful for the unquantifiable things you’ve done for us. The truth is,
none of us would be here today wearing a toga – none of us could have made it here
without the help of our parents. We are here because of the profound and loving
individuals who supported us.
In this regard, today we celebrate the fruits of our labor, the beauties of diamonds
under pressure. As we have lived the ways of a true Michaelite- as individuals of Faith,
Excellence and Service. Please join us as we pay tribute to the enduring hardwork of St.
Michael’s College Senior High School Class 2018/9. I welcome everyone to this most
awaited moment.
