Usually, we celebrate our birthdays by having a party;inviting friends and relatives, receiving gifts and warm greetings and of course, the celebration is not complete without a cake. Yet, how does Assumption celebrate its birthday or foundation day?
July 15 2010-the big event. Hundreds of people filled Jaro Cathedral. I felt that the word, "Different", was eliminated from the dictionary. Despite of our differences such as in age,time and generation, there was no barrier because one thing we have in common is Assumption. Almost all participated in the singing of the Assumption school song. That moment showed the evidence that indeed the threads in us linked us and made us one fusion,Assumption.
There was no feeling of regret. Although the weather was very hot and humid, I didn't regret that I wore my gala. My mom spend a lot just to buy the whole set and I can only witness the celebration once because I know I can't reach the age when Assumption will become two hundred. Even my right foot was terribly in pain because of the high-heeled shoes, I still persisted. It didn't matter. Although I felt really exhausted, there was still a feeling of extreme burst of enthusiasm for I am so blessed to be part of this celebration.
My presence during the celebration is my life-long legacy to my beloved school,Assumption!
