On September 17, 2000 I got my degree in Business Administration from APE University in the Dominican Republic.
On this day I woke up at 6:00 am in the morning.
I thought about so many things.
One of the things that I thought about was that I needed to be ready for the big moment in my life “my graduation”.
At that moment graduation was my goal and I was close to obtaining it..
My 4 years of effort were going to came true.
I felt many emotions together.
I want everything perfect for that moment.
When I was on the ceremony and I heard that my name was call, I felt that I couldn’t walk but I stood up and I started walk.
In this moment I felt lonely I couldn’t hear any thing, it was only my voice,and me. But at the time that I heard congratulation miss Novas from the director of the university. I only saw my father’s face and I was crying.
“It was the moment that I thought it well done”.
It was the best day in my life.
