"Humanism - A corner in the heart"

If the school years passed by in the innocent dreams of adolescence, then perhaps the university years are the moments when we feel the most maturity in life. We thought the four years of university would be long, but it was just a fleeting moment. Today, as a third-year university student, at the age of 21 – an age of learning to walk, to search, to trust, to love, to sacrifice for what the heart truly desires, to understand what freedom is, to be myself, to live without fear, anxiety, or resentment, to plan for my studies and career without family by my side… I truly believe in the path I have chosen, and I believe in the University of Humanities – where I am studying and training to fulfill my dreams for the future.

The Faculty of Humanities is a place with lovely friends, a place with enthusiastic, energetic, and likeable young people. It's also where the school organizes events, and I'm always excited because I'm looking forward to watching performances, meeting famous people, attending scientific seminars, and especially chatting with my friends. There were times when we scrambled to register for online classes, days when we came home hungry and exhausted, only to miss the bus or be late and get marked "absent" by the teacher... but…Youth is like a rain shower.,even if you have a cold,"I still want to go back and get wet in the rain one more time..."

Five semesters have passed, a relatively short time, but enough to engrave countless memories of school, teachers, and friends. I have been nurtured by the dedicated and passionate guidance of my teachers, and those five semesters have allowed me to achieve certain accomplishments. These include knowledge, perseverance, and self-confidence, enabling me to confidently navigate life's challenges. My teachers have given me a solid foundation of knowledge; someone likened them to silent, flowing silt, nurturing countless trees and blossoming flowers, never seeking fame or recognition. These silent silts have taught me how to live, how to be a good person, how to smile, and how to face life's difficult challenges.

Those social science knowledge skills taught me how to be a useful person; they have always been a solid foundation and a valuable asset for building a long-term career. The Faculty of Humanities helped me develop logical thinking, critical thinking, communication skills, and relationship building – all of which are incredibly important in my work and in my life now and in the future.

Someone once said, "You are someone who smiles when you smile, rejoices when you rejoice, but doesn't cry when you cry, because then they have to hold your hand and hug you." I understood that saying even more deeply when I spent my summer volunteering in the remote Tuyen Quang province. That land, those people, were so unfamiliar to us. Even students from the same university, like myself, were completely unfamiliar with each other, from different departments and classes, perhaps even different in personality, but we shared the same ideal of the youth of the University of Humanities: "to live and contribute wholeheartedly." That ideal dispelled the fatigue of the sweltering summer days, filling each volunteering session with laughter. Now, reminiscing about those days of sharing joys and sorrows, difficulties and hardships, those memories flood back to me as if it were just yesterday we were together. Yes, the summer volunteering has ended, but we will always stand side by side, still reminiscing about the beautiful memories of those days. For me, those days were not meaningless; I learned so much and built a truly meaningful friendship. That was perhaps a blessing for me. It is because of these feelings that when we had to say goodbye, when each of us had to step into life, to choose our own path, no longer walking together on the same road, suddenly we all felt so sad, a sadness that cannot be named. A strange emotion welled up inside us; perhaps it wasn't strong enough to bring tears to our eyes, but it created choked sobs within.

Soon, these college friends will also go their separate ways, flying to new horizons to pursue their own dreams. But please, let's cherish the best memories, forgive mistakes and petty grudges, and keep the unspoken feelings to ourselves. May we strive tirelessly with the passion of youth so that tomorrow, from this school, we will become useful members of society, remain steadfast on the path we have chosen, and be the pride of our teachers.

"It's fate that brought us together as brothers; no one walks the path alone, and we have such wonderful friends..."

I love the Faculty of Humanities more than ever. It has given me friends, loving relationships, dedicated teachers, and the essential knowledge base to prepare me for life.
