Graduation Speech by Charliemen Ellorico Asilum

Posted by Steven Egay for the Gigaquit Civic Club

April 9, 2013

Charliemen Asilum is GCC Scholar #0001.  He finished Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, Cum Laude at the College of St. Catherine in Quezon City.

This was his graduation speech as Cum Laude (he wrote this by himself and he delivered it eloquently without reading all the way) . . .

The time has come to harvest the fruits of our labour, the result of four years of persistence and struggle.  I know that we all deserve it because from the beginning, we have given all our best. Despite the problems and obstacles we had encountered, we remained to be determined and willing to finish our battle to the end.

My fellow graduates. Let’s not wait for the opportunities to come. Let us go confidently in the direction of our dreams and live the life we have imagined. Let us go, find and seek for it. But we must not forget that life is a continuous process of learning. As we tend to have experiences, we must learn to realize and internalize the lessons we obtained from it. Let us seek and crave for learning because learning is not attained by chance. It must be sought for with passion and attended to with diligence.

After this, we may part ways pursuing our dreams, looking for ourselves and searching for our place in this world. And I hope that this is not the end but a start of something new in our lives, something that will make our life meaningful not only for us but also to others. Let us share the blessings we are receiving because I believe that a blessing that is not shared does not serve its worth, meaning and purpose.

As we receive our diploma, let us not forget to thank those who helped us build our dreams: our Alma Mater which made us strong and proud Catherinians, our teachers who imparted to us invaluable knowledge and taught us the realities of life, our parents and guardians who were always there all the time especially when we have problems and adversities.

I would like to personally thank my guardians, Mr. Steven Egay and Mrs. Evelyn Egay for supporting me financially, morally and spiritually and for guiding me all the time. I know that without you, I would not be standing here in front.

To my classmates, the “IT’SOK” group of IT students. Thank you so much for making me feel that I am not alone, for giving me your trust, for being my brothers and sisters, and for being my faithful and true friends. Also to my schoolmates, thank you for making my stay here in College of St. Catherine worthwhile.

To my family, my brothers and sisters, to my father: wherever you may be right now, I know that you are so proud of me. Thank you and I miss you so much. To my mother: though you are not here today, I know how proud you are to see me here on stage. Thank you so much for having me as your son, for being my loving mother, for taking care of me since birth, for teaching me the right path and for being my inspiration. Ma, I dedicate this all to you.

To those I forgot to include, thank you so much for you untiring support and dedication.

And to the Almighty Father for the guidance, knowledge, and wisdom. I know Lord God that without You, I am nothing.

As I end this speech, I would like you, my fellow graduates, to always remember this. “Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life but by the obstacles which he has overcome”. Congratulations to all of us!

“Things pass. Memories last”

Childhood has always been

A time when we became

Best friends that share the same

Emotions and feelings.

Since we were child of years,

How curious and sincere,

We go through experience

Notwithstanding the tears.

But as time passes by,

Our goals have brought us wild.

Decided, each goes through

His way to “dreams-come-true!”

We may become a grown-up

Having memory gap.

Obtaining more forehead

And feeling we’re ahead.

But one thing is for sure

No matter how obscure

Everything that we cast.

Things pass. Memories last.

“Life’s like a Song”

What’s been is an “intro” of life.

May it be a fortune or strife.

But as it passes through our days,

Do you get the lessons it insists?

At the chorus of our striving,

Problems do come suffocating.

And you may say: “What are these for?

Making me go through my endeavor?”

When everything in life seems wrong,

Not reaching the bridge of a song,

Don’t ever stop. Hold on and fight.

There’s always a way to play it right.

Comparing our life to a song,

The same genre they might belong.

Though sometimes both are intricate,

It just depends on how you play it.

Written by Charliemen Asilum (GCC Scholar # 1) for their school paper . . .

“Loneliness: Your refuge!”

Things in life do have consequences.

All questions do have answers.

All causes do have effects

Even the issues caused by small things.

When you ask, there’s a response.

When you seek, soon you’ll find.

When you laugh, next you’ll cry

And when accused, you deny.

But what if you do not know

The way by which you’ll go.

And you can’t answer your questions

Cause you’re confused by suggestions.

Often you go anywhere

So that no one will interfere

And comfort’s becoming huge

Cause loneliness is your refuge.

Charlie Asilum GCC SCHOLAR PLEDGE

The GCC (Gigaquit Civic Club) has conducted a Scholarship program to help Gigaquitnons ascend their lives through financial and moral assistance. In choosing a scholar, they exerted their efforts just to select a Gigaquitnon that would qualify on all its requirements and would do the responsibilities that go with it.
I, Charliemen Ellorico Asilum, has been given the opportunity to qualify as their scholar. And with this, I pledge that I will do my best to get an average not lower than 85%. I promise that if I already have an acceptable job, I will sponsor the schooling of their another scholar. This will be done through God's grace. May the Almighty Father bless me always.
