The interview portion came, and I somehow wasn't surprised anymore. Siguro dahil inaasahan ko na na may itatanong silang di ko inaasahan. Ako ang pangalawa sa ininterview sa umagang iyon.

Walang numero sa interview. Kung sino lang yung handa kaya itinaas ko na 'yung kamay ko. Ano naman ang ipinagkaiba ng ngayon sa mamaya ko pa gagawin?

Noong ako na ang tatanungin, hindi naman ako kinabahan masyado. Siguro ay dahil buo naman ang loob ko at nasa kondisyon din. "In one minute, tell me about yourself," ang sabi ng interviewer.

Madali naman akong nakasagot at tumungo na sa pangalawang magtatanong sa akin. Ano raw ang talento na meron ako na maiambag sa school nila and as much as possible, try to answer in English. Hindi ko talaga alam kung anong talento ko.

But I want to become like the successful people. I desire their success. I want to be successful like them.

Thus, my answer, "I don't know my talent yet for I am still finding it, but what I am for sure is that I'll bring victory for this school, I'll be forever grateful to be part of this as this is my dream school since I was young. I don't have the talent, but I have the potential."

Sa school may kaklase ako na engineering din ang kinuhang kurso. Ibang schedule siya kaya hindi kami nagkasalubong. She shared her experience during her interview, and I felt like I am nothing compared to her.

She said that she sold herself. She ended the interview with confidence that she'll be accepted. I started doubting myself.

The result came and I was so happy since I passed. She didn't. I felt bad for her.
