I WANT TO BE REMEMBERED AS A.........

Time is passing by so quickly. Graduation day is fast approaching and hopefully, we the Seniors will be leaving the portals of UP high. But before I leave this fun and memorable school, here is how I want to be remembered by my friends and all the students wherever life takes them.

I want them to remember me as a respectful and responsible person. Since I was still in first year, I had been very obedient with the school’s rules and regulations. I never had a misunderstanding with a teacher. I had been absent only once in my four years in high school and I had only a couple of tardy marks. Though I was not really that serious in my studies unlike some of my classmates did like Eldee or Micheal, I was still responsible enough to comply with my requirements, pass my subjects and even recognized once in a recognition day.

I also want to be remembered as a kind hearted, humble and generous person. I had been very kind and generous to all the people who believed in me and asked for my help. Even though I am not that intelligent, I would be eager to help when someone approaches me about matters involving assignments or what so ever within my limit of knowledge. I was never been selfish to my classmates. I showed to the people in the University love and respect especially our beloved teachers.

I also want to be remembered as a true and caring friend by my classmates and friends. I never had left a friend behind in times of troubles just like a soldier that never leaves a wounded man behind. When my friends are down and troubled, I am always ready to help them and listen to their problems. I can be trusted with their secrets.

I also want to be remembered as a good basketball player, a good athlete. Basketball as my classmates know is my passion and I want to show to everyone my talents and skills in playing it. I want to be remembered as a man of sportsmanship. I had always been humble in all my victories and gracious in all my defeats.

I want everyone who knows me to remember me as me, a good friend and a person of humility. I know that there are bad sides of my personality but what I showed in the school and outside the school for the past four years was my true self. From being shy, I became confident not necessarily confident in speaking but confident in expressing my true personality.

To everyone whom I have offended without my knowledge, I apologize for that and remember me always as a person who also commits mistakes and a person who is willing to ask for forgiveness.

I can not demand anyone to remember me as how I like to be remembered but I hope that the people I met along my life would at least remember my name when our roads cross again.
