One Evening after the State Exam

Shortly after the state exam on June 11, 2011, I hurriedly went home with the smiley face by thinking, "Finally, I finished one major, and I'll have much time doing things I wanna do." When I arrived home, I told mom, as she asked, that I did it, not good and not bad, but expected acceptable result. And mom then said, "Good, my son."

In a short while, I was laying in bed and watching TV. Immediately, one thinking appeared in my mind. I thought, "what I gonna do after this? Still unemployed," I continued thinking, "or find job? Most of my friends have already worked, and get appropriate salary. Anyway, what will I do with civil engineering major if i find job?" Sigh... This is one of the most difficult situations in life when u can't step into the job market while others do.

Accidentally, mom came to me and asked, "what kind of job will u decide to do after graduate one major?" And I replied, "I don't know, mmm... mom. I'm really concerned with the other major. I have to study and train in both Morning and Afternoon shift, and without this training, I won't be provided a chance to get job in that field."
"So, what will you do with your BA in Eng Com?", mom continued. And I sadly answered, "This is my concerned, mom. I also want a job while our economic problem's killing us, but I can't still decide whether to work or to pursue civil engineering major." Finally, mom, with trying to encourage me, said, "Whatever job you decide to do, whenever you wanna work, and whichever major you wanna study, mom is on your side, always. The problem is what makes you happy, my lovely son." Then, the smiley face of mind came back with fully sweet words from mom.

At the end of the evening, after my sister got home from work, our four members family, also with my cute dog, had a nice and sweet dinner as small party for me who becomes fresh graduate from now on.
