So just recently I had a chance to meet an old friend of my back in college at a wedding party of my colleague. His name was David. We used to be in the same college and had a chance to study with each other at universities of social sciences and home in humanities in Vietnam five years ago. So during a wedding party we had a chance to talk a lot but primarily about personal life and career in which we are now managers at different corporations. The reason that I like in talking with him in a wedding party is the conversation that made me reminisce of my college memories. Back then we had a chance to work and study with each other with most of the subjects and which share for who we are today. Second of all his conversations and sharing about his career share the same interest and the same career path as of mine. We started off as interns of a very small agencies and now we have developed our professional career path and and secure our job five years later standing here in a wedding party and I very much appreciate for how we have learned and started together back then in order to improve ourselves and to reach for who we are today.
