May 8, 2009 Dr. Benjamina Paula Flor College Secretary – College of Development Communication UP at Los Banos, College, Laguna Dear Dr. Flor: Hope all is well with you and your family. I wrote to formally inform your good office that the undersigned (sophomore standing) will be leaving the College of Development Communication and will transfer to CAS BS Computer Science, hopefully, this coming academic year 2009-2010. For two semesters, I tried to see how I would fit as a development communicator, but through the course I realized that journalism is not for me. I simply cannot see myself in a career that entails a lot of writing and communication. I felt that I may not excel in this field if my heart is not into it. My passion is actually computers and I believe being in a course that deals with programming or web designing would bring out the best of skills that I have already honed in the past several years. Honestly, BS Computer Science was my first choice during the application for UPCAT, unfortunately, I didn’t make it to the quota. Nevertheless, I tried to absorb journalism into my system, but at the end of the day, it just doesn’t fit. May I please ask for your kind understanding with regards to my decision as this is about my future. I am sure you will agree that a person will do very well in a career that he or she is passionate about. Thank you so much and hoping for your favorable response. Signed:
