In order to encourage academic excellence, the Faculty of
Arts, University of the Western Cape honours outstanding students who work hard
to set themselves apart from others with awards every semester. The outstanding
students are students who obtain an average of 75% and above after the semester
exams. As a reward for their hard work and commitment to their academics, they
as awarded with the Dean's merit list certificate for outstanding performance
during the semester.
Academic achievement is one of the things that I consider to
be an important achievement in life and I am always in awe to be in the
presence of these great achievers and dream chasers. I admire their hard work
and resilience because trust me; it takes a lot of self-deprivation and
dedication to be there. One of the recipients told me she only sleeps for four hours
a day (sorry L dearie, I just had to say it because you are truly an
inspiration). There are others who juggle between part-time jobs and academics
and they still stay true to their dreams. I think they are really worth
celebrating.
Yes, yours truly was also honoured with an award and I have
my own story too which I will reserve for later. I just want to say that it was
only a dream but I am glad it came true. I have my amazing God, family, friends
and professors to thank though.
Anyway, please remain happy and keep dreaming because dreams
indeed do come true. Xoxo. More photos after the cut....
