‘Haggardo Versoza’
“HAGGARDO Versoza”, beki language for “hagard”, is a term well-known among students. As someone nearing the end of the first half oh her final year, the word has become my battle cry. I’m nearing the end of my tenure as a student and preparing myself for the next stage of my life: career.
Student life isn’t easy. The eye bags and zits are cruel reminders of the 16 years of waking up early, doing assignments, and studying (kuno). However, those years will be like child’s play to me compared to what is coming. All the lessons that sucked out half of my soul will have the chance to actually be applied.
Students know hagard well. Exam time is the worst. Project submission deadlines seem to muont on top of each other, quizzes are killers, and the love of procrastination does not make anything better.
However, if you ask people who have long since graduated from student life, they look back at these times. I know one day I will be like that too; experiencing a new kind of hagard that will have me missing prelims, midterms and finals.
It’s still exciting though. I know career life won’t be any easier than student life but the reward will be sweet. I will be able to make a place for myself in the world and follow my dreams.
Though I will still be eternally “Haggardo Versoza”, I will be facing the greatest part of my life./PN
