Every chapter of My Life

NTU Convocation!

2008!

Huat AH!

It was a special day for me, my buddies, my friends and our parents.
After work, my parents drove me from my work place. Met up with SY, XYZ and SK in the Resource Room. Took 5 mins to wear our gown and stick our hood to the heavy gown. The hood colour for SBS is Navy Blue edged with Light Green.. And last of all our Graduation caps. The moment I wore it, I felt like crying... 4 years of studies just for this moment of glory. So many flashbacks.
--> Our flintstones orientation group.
--> How SK joined our group.
--> SK and me studying while SY and XYZ bought food from Canteen A for us.
--> SY, XYZ and me drinking $0.50 coffee before lectures.
--> SK asking us questions that we couldnt answer during lectures.
--> All of us except SK, falling asleep during lectures.
--> SK offering to photocopy references for us.
--> Mindy, SK and me studying at the study bench, eating bread.
--> Mindy and me going to Netto, shopping in Ahlens, touring Europe.
--> Mabel, Serene, Carolyn, Leepei and me gossiping.
--> Many many more...

From strangers to friends to buddies...

Thanks to my parents for supporting me this far. MUACK! I love you!

Yeah! I have made it!

Thanks to my daddy for supporting my expensive education, for encouraging me to go for exchange programme. Thank you for not letting me to worry about financial problems so that I can focus fully on my studies.

My dad so funny lah.. he was so hungry that he ate the previous's batch buffet even before our ceremony starts .... then whacked the buffet again after our ceremony. He wanted to make his $24k worthwhile... lol..

Thanks to my mummy. For listening to my problems, my complaints. For doting me so much and for supporting every major decision I made in life. For giving me valuable advices. For being my best friend.

I brought my graduation bear along to act as a prop as I wasnt expecting any flower bouquet...

My buddies! where is Mindy and SK??

After taking some shots, we headed towards the auditorium to collect our seat number.

Surprise!!! Mindy gave me a flower! SO sweet right... Touched!..Thank you gal!... The flower is now at my work desk, served to constantly remind myself that I am blessed with pal like her...

Alamak, I am the only person wearing the "IGAVE" pin...
Wohoo...

Kok Kok didnt come for my graduation but its okay. To be frank, I wasn't disappointed at all, cos I know his heart is with me... LOL..
My Daddy and Mummy again!

The gown was too heavy and it kept falling back... After some re-adjustment by Mindy's mummy....Looked better.. Thank you auntie! XYZ and SY re-gowned as well.. funny lah... XYZ's arm got stucked..lol

At 530pm, the ushers guided us into the theatre. Setting no bad!

My Moment of glory... 15 secs

WOHOO... Finally graduated with a degree in Bachelor of Biological Sciences with Honours There were a few moments where I held back tears. Tears of Joy.

After the valedictorian's speech, tears welled up my eyes. Very touching! *CLAPS to Renchun*

After everything ended, one of the Masters graduate pulled his gf to the front and proposed to his GF. Right in front of hundred pairs of eyes. HONG HONG LIE LIE!

We headed back to SBS for buffet.

Throwing our caps was another touching moments.

All of us gathered just outside SBS building...The moment we threw our caps and it started drizzling..

So we threw our caps again.. INDOOR ...
