My Degree Convocation…

Finally, is my own degree convocation…

Went to college early in the morning with my family. We taken a family studio picture outside of the hall ( and also my personal’s). The guard went screaming in the loud speaker asking all graduates to group at the right side of the hall, but everyone seems doesn’t really taking that as a command coz we are still taking our own sweet time preparing to take some shots here n there especially the studio photo station beside the hall is an attraction. hehe…

At around 9.30am we are arranged according to numbers and entered the hall via the centre door from the hall side… As this is like a super grand event, they were playing some circus music while welcoming the great batch of graduates 2008 into the hall… hmm… for a moment i though we should walk with our hands hanging long forward touching the floor like monkeys rather then convocation gown…

On the way goin in, I first saw a group of lecturers are sitting on my right, and most of them had actually taught me before and we are quite close. Then I saw my parents ahead. They managed to grab the first row for parents seat!! haha!! Both my parents and my lecturers were equally excited as me.. one of the lecturer Ms Chew suddenly saw me in the queue, she she went :"WAH LENG ZAI LO!!!" without realizing her voice is a bit too high for that grand entrance for the graduates… (LOL!)…sighz making me blush only :P the feeling of greatfullness, happiness, touched, all came in at once… because i know, they are really happy to see me in this gown, in this day..

So we sat down accordingly and then the ceremony started with speeches by Vice Principle of Campbell University, where we get our extended degree from, and his speech goes Wala and Wala… talking about GCC standards and bla bla bla… i rather he talks about GSC lol.

However the scroll handover ceremony started earlier then all of us expected and so we went up the stage one by one to collect an empty scroll cover. lol (cert to be collected from office)

So that’s it after all…

4 years spend laying eggs in the college, and the result is 10 seconds on the stage.. umm.. ok lah maybe 20 la.. coz i purposely walked slowly.

ANYWAY, congrats to everyone that grad together that day.. is an honour graduating will all of u guys especially my dear coursemates. However i just felt sad for unable to capture enough pictures with most of u, and some even din get to see each other due to too many ppl around and we are all meeting with own family, relatives and friends that were visiting us. Just wish to thank you all for being a great companion and coursemate all this while.. always take care ok!

First of all, Thank you mom and dad, and hopefully this will be the best father’s day gift to you… Also thanks to my dear, for being with me all this while… you all are the best motivation for me to move on… love you all…! =)

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all my lovely lecturers, some of them really inspired me a lot. But sadly i could not get hold of many of them to take picture with me… Thank you Ms Lim MS, Ms Chin(IT 1), Ms Chai, Ms Chiew, Ms Ting, Ms Ker, Ms Kathleen, Ms Chok, Ms Chang PF, Ms Anjoe, Ms Tan LP, Ms Tan(for short story), Ms Foo, Ms Sylvie(for English), Ms Tan(for OOAD), Ms Kher, Mr Yong, Mr Wong YS, Mr Lee HY, Mr Lee KK(Web service), Mr Tho, Mr Low KH, Mr Mark Merry, Mr Lai, Mr Ku(OS), Mr Yap, Mr Stephen Tang, and very sure that i’ve missed many many more that i cannot think about at the moment. You all have guided me well all this while. I will never forget about all of you..

Also to everyone that make it to my convo, i’m really touched. Some took leave(*interview for new job after my convo..*ehem*), and some postponed a trip, and many of them never make it there but presents/flowers came in too. Thanks for all the flowers and gifts.. I’ve got 7 bouquet of flowers in total and also 7 presents. Those are really unexpected!!

Now i know why there are occasions that gals might complaint they are recieving flowers till their hands also starts to shiver… because they are REALLY HEAVY! and frankly speaking my hands were shiverring after taking the flowers for some photo taking session till I need to actually put them aside…

ALL of these are mine…. =) The 2 lil pics on the left and right side of the pic actually came in later and I missed to take a pics together. Can you imagine there are even other graduates that actually "borrowed" this scene to take their picture? omg…

and those flowers and gifts actually dominated most spaces of the car while taking them back home…

For those who cannot make it, thank you too for sending in smses to congratulate me, especially a call from Australia and another sms from UK! =D ….  Appreciation is the best return i can give to u guys. Friends forever and finally, a SOLID thank you!!

LET  IT FLY!!!!!

for more pictures please visit my photo Album in friendster profile.. currently i’m still collecting pictures from everyone since I myself din get to shoot many pics from my brother’s digi cam.

p/s: for other friends that having my pics for convo(which i think there’s still bunch of them), Kindly pass to me via email : K_H_Ying@yahoo.com or burn into CD/DVD or upload to my friendster profile… thx a million!!
