Epilogue-End of An Era...

In exactly 15 days time I sit the final examination of my Electrical and Electronic Engineering degree and that will bring to an end the first phase of my journey to becoming a Chartered Engineer. This journey started 4 years ago on the 9th of October when I left Zimbabwe to study at the University of Aberdeen. The journey has been full of trials and tribulations most or all of which motivated the start of this blog. A lot has taken place within this four year period, I have made friends and I have lost friends, found love and lost love, gained knowledge most of which I retain to this day but most importantly I have grown as a person and a man.

I have always wondered and probably will always wonder why things seem so difficult when you are nearly at the end. Even though I realise how paramount it is that I remain focused at the three items off assessment I got left I just cannot seem to find the motivation. Sometimes I just wish I could just sleep tonight and wake up after the 27th and somehow all my exams would be done and I will just be waiting to graduate. Anyway sometimes we have to let our minds wander and "wish and dream" as long as we can tell the worlds apart then we are ok.

I am struggling with one of my final pieces for assessment, it is a poster presentation on my thesis project and I just cannot seem to get it done. The presentation is on thursday and now it is tuesday already but I am not even halfway through it. I had to somehow complete this post since it has been parked for a good week now and so I will pick up from where I have left off today.

Hmm traditional parting line, the words of wisdom, let me see if I can come up with something. Well this didn't take too long did it, Tanya I promise it's not going to be two months from now on. Anyway here goes " Remember that change, halfway through always looks like failure"

The things most worth having in life take us everything we have to offer for us to get them. Graduation wouldn't be worth it if it didn't take blood, sweat, and tears. It wouldn't be an accomplishment if you didn't sit up late into the night, typing, writing, thinking.

Enjoy the fight, knowing it is the best (and only) way to close up the era, and lock the door.

Get motivation in that after this fight you will be the one with the widest smile that morning...
