Centennial College – Hotel & Resort Management

I finished my program last December 2009 and my convocation was this month of 18th 2010. I didn’t end up going to my convocation because I didn’t get to know the date of the convocation ahead of time and my Fiance couldn’t take that day off just for me. But the weird thing is, they mailed me this diploma 2 months ahead of time. If I have my diploma already – why am I going to convocation for? For the pictures and meet my college friends – but I didn’t choose to go because another reason was I was busy with some stuff.

This program I took was a 2 year program which included 4 semester. 3 semester of in-class stuff and 1 semester of co-op term. Time flew by real quick when I was in college and I met a lot of new people. I ended up with a GPA of 2.68. Kind of bad eh? I didn’t try hard enough. To be honest, I didn’t try at all. I past everything with flying colors. I was just not interested in school. I know it’s important and everything – but I’m just not interested. I didn’t study for no tests/exams. Reason why? I really didn’t have a reason for it. I know even if I study – I wouldn’t be able to remember it. My memory is just ridiculous bad.

Going on my Coop term, I worked at Delta Toronto East for 3 whole months and yes I’ve learned a lot. A whole lot but the people around me make me feel like, this is a crappy job working at a hotel and it’s for stupid people. Seriously, they seriously told me that. As a co-op student, all I can do is just smile and laugh it off. It was really a bad influence. Did it affect me? I got to admit, a bit.

After graduating, am I going for a hotel job? I have to say no. After 2years of being in this program and paying $6000CDN for this program, I have to say NO. I just didn’t like the environment after I experience it. But I wouldn’t mind taking any job at this moment in life. I don’t like it, doesn’t mean I won’t work in one. It’s all about the money, I don’t mind not liking the job as long as I make monthly income from it right?

Your question might be – would I go back to school? I doubt it, I might do hands on courses but definitely not brain work courses. I’m done with school! Would I be telling my kid in the future that school is not important? Definitely not – I want the best for my kid and I want him/her to work harder than I did. There’s just a lot of things affected me in my life and that’s for another story…
