Everything must come to an end. The only thing that we can do is to try and try until you got what you wanted. But what if there are a lot of obstacles or challenges ahead? What will you do? Are you going to raise the white flag and surrender or get down on your knees and pray to reach the finish line? 

Every graduating student has this kind of fear that, Am I going to graduate? What if yes, what will the best job for me? What are the companies that will best suit my course taken, where should I go first? Should I rest for a while? Stay home and pamper myself from the things that I supposed to do when I was still studying? 

Those are just some of the questions that will definitely pops up on your mind when we come to the point of receiving the “white paper” and “having a handshake with the president or head of the university”.

Well in this blog, I just would like to share my thoughts and learning’s from the seminar that I attended. It’s not just a typical and boring seminar that you’re thinking, because through this I was enlighten and eye opened with that question of “What COMMes Next?” That’s the thing, I don’t know where to go after this, what job and how will I maximize all those abilities and skills that I have. Like what is the best among the rest? In this seminar there are 7 speakers. 

The one that strike me the most is the first speaker. He has shared his insights that I think I can maximize my course. He shared that in order to be a successful you got to have; Passion, Skills and Market. Why? Because through this you’ll get to know more of yourself and see what are your abilities. Life of a COMMunication student is not easy, especially it has different aspects but what’s a good thing about is that it’s for everything; this course has the different kind of job that you can apply. Well what’s the best line that Mr. Nico said? Is that all fresh graduates are equal to all companies whether you are coming from the provincial university or other. All you have to bring is that yourself and the confidence that earn. And remember not the INSECURITIES. 

Also the best things that I learned is that the rest of the speakers have also shared their working experience on “working online”, they give us the opportunities and benefits that we can get on working online. It’s a bit crazy about social media, how powerful it is. But since I started the “writing for new media” class it changed me a lot, not in the usual way but in the fastest way. 

It’s not too late for a new beginning, you can pretend that you don’t know but you can’ get escaped with it.
