My Graduation

YAY!!! It's my BIG day today!!! I managed to catch sufficient amount of sleep for the long day that I would have to go through. Cut it short, the convo ceremony started at 230pm, and all graduates were supposed to be seated by 220pm. Well, since my apt is just opposite USM, I thought I'd have loads of spare time by starting my journey there at 145pm. Boy, I was so wrong! We took the wrong turn in USM and ended up going in a loop which led to nowhere but the exit gate! Clock was ticking to 200...210...215... -.-" I was so so nervous thinking that I was surely missing the convo ceremony already! HF boldly took a narrow turn (because the road was blocked) to get to the convo hall no matter what, and fortunately it led to the convo hall. Phew, I ran towards it as fast as I could with my high heels (ouch!). It was such a relief to see so many graduates from my faculty still hanging around the lobby, taking pictures, etc. I knew I wasn't too late and could still make it! After much heart-thumping rush and help from my friends I occasionally bumped into, I managed to get the robe nicely worn, thank God! It was pleasant seeing all my coursemates again in the hall.

I am so glad that my parents came for the ceremony despite having to sit through the boring ceremony which lasted for 3 hours just to be able to watch me go on the stage to get my scroll. :-)

Bro, SIL (sis in-law), and Chloe were already waiting around 530pm. It was really wonderful to have them attending my convo to celebrate the joy with me, hehe. The convo wouldn't have meant so much without them, hehe. Bro truly gave immeasurable effort to be the 'cameraman' of the day (dedicated just for me :P) of taking almost 3 hours of pics with his geng chau nikon! I am truly blessed by all my family members' support and love! YEAH!! You'll get to see his masterpiece by the end of this post.

It was really sweet to be seeing my CG members (both from Hope and USM) being present for this memorable occasion. I also received plenty of gifts from them. My 'lil sis' also came, JUST FOR ME! Aww... I am truly touched by all their sincerity. :-)

The day continued with plenty of photoshoot with basically anyone I knew, HAHA! I had a satisying dinner with my family, not to mention the quench of thirst (PHEW!) that we all savoured after a few hours of dehydration! I believe not only me, but all my innocent family members also got caught in that situation... so cham... :-( More photoshoots after we got home. Ok, enough of story telling, here are the masterpiece as promised
