UTAR Convocation August 2007.
I've attended 3 out of 4 UTAR convocation.
Not because of I am a big fan of the ceremony but I am once again summoned to bear the mace.
This session is a little bit different compare to the previous sessions I've attended.
I have a lot of friends graduating in this four sessions.
Suddenly start to imagine the moment of my own graduation.
Watching Ed Khing, Yee Ling, Siew Lee, Angel, Nancy, Kai Xin, Esther, Lydia, Ravi, Pak Kin, Mei San, Fish etc etc graduating makes me feel like time really flies.
Next round gonna be Ms Liew and Joo's turn!
To all my friends that graduated, my heartiest congratulations and apology cause no flowers and dolls from me~ hehehe!
So to be fair with the rest, Ah Leng and JOO I am not gonna buy any for both of you too!
Hohohohohohoho! Okiez.. Let's have a little flash back of what happened in the past two days.
SAT 25 Aug 2007,Early in the morning rush to UNI for my RMP test. A final "mid-term" test that I have.
Finish the test earlier~ Rush to WISMA MCA!
It's a rainy day, the roads are slippery~ Dun worry there isn't any drifting action i made.
Reach the place around 11:15am, the first session has already ended. Saw many graduates cheering and taking pictures down there. As usual the concourse area is packed!
Found Mei Yin there and taken pic with her, tried to look for Jason to take picture but sad~ he has gone home! sobz sobz..
Look for MR Ping Nian after that who attended the session “on behalf of me"(someone gf graduating with first class Hons degree huh~)!
Got my invitation card from him and then I proceed to the hall.
Guess what, the first person i saw is ALEX, not the ordinary Alex but ALEX the bald!
He really shaved all his hair!! Chit-chat with all the people there. Saw a lot of familiar faces.
Jonathan is scheduled to bear the mace on the 2nd session. He is damn nervous till can't take lunch. Hoho! Well, remind me of the fist time Alex and I went to take the mace, but I thought our appetite was quite good at that time! hahaha!
Chee Wei was there as well, he attended the first session. He then tried to bear the mace and walk through the hall~ and yeap! He manage to walk through the "runway"! hehe
Taken lunch with everyone there. The catering this year is.......... speechless! Probably that's why Jonathan didn't take lunch huh?
Michelle then arrive to join us while Chee Wei and Alex left.
Finish the hot spicy ginger lunch, we went in to the hall and wait for the ceremony to commence.
Ms Sum then show up! Sitting besie Michelle, we had a long talk on the recent hot topic! What kind of hot topic? hohoho~ It's classified information not for open discussion. After the graduates took their scroll, we went in for a little refreshment. Gone out to take pic with Angel, Nancy, Ed Khing, Yee Ling, Joe Yee, How Wey etc etc.. and Guan Tong in shorts and sliper ><"! That's wrap up the first Day!
Sun 26 AUG 2007Woke up early in the morning around 6:00am. Brush brush my tooth, took bath, comb comb my hair~ then head towards Wisma MCA! Arrive there around 7.15am. UTAR bus is already there. Went down to chit-chat with Ms Yee, Mr Lim they all. Took breakfast with all my DEA buddies~
Kak Suraiya starts to tell story about drama happens in her family. Can't really remember what it is but I could barely recall that it is something about her cousin's Kuching ex-bf fly all the way from kuching to KL, vs the current bf here in peninsular. Well, it's an interesting story to listen to. ^^ Our breakfast today is again disappointing~ Bee Hon with ikan bilis that looks like sambal but has no sambal taste! Someone took the pic and said want to complain~ dun remember who exactly! but pls do so!! Coz the meal is really SUX ler~~
After the breakfast went to take picture with Ah Fish! My secondary school friend who graduate in first class hons degree!! Congrats congrats him a bit! Smile Smile and "chak"!!
After blow blow water with him, I went back to the hall waiting room and started to change. Yeah~ forgot to mentioned~ It's my turn to bear the mace this round! Got myself the X'mas tree rob~ wore it with
gloves and wait for the moment to come. Bearing the mace this round is fun to me! Didn't really feel the weight of it anymore. Smiling all way through till I reach the podium and place it in front of the G.O.H. or I should rephrase cause our G.O.H. Datuk Sri' Chan FFK last minute! It should be placing the mace in front of Tun and Tan Sri then.. hehe.
After all the Tan Mei Mei, Lim Pei Pei, Chin Lee Lee took their scroll for approximately 1 and a half hour the thrid session ends. As usual, went out and "chak chak" some more pictures! Met with Kai Xin who was being interviewed! Glad to hear that she has been head-hunted to a few place! haha! Well, i went in to the hall again for the 2nd session together with Simon and Ms Sum. Nothing special happens after that. So guess that's it for Day 2! After so long dnt write blog in English, really makes my hands feel stiff That's it! I am not writing anymore!! TATA!
