My Graduation Ceremony 2007

F-I-N-A-L-L-Y... the day has come...

MY final destination at Temasek Polytechnic has finally arrived... *woo~hoo!*

Woke up ard 7am plus to prepare... You think tat's early?? Nahz. My mummy n daddy woke up even earlier... *hahahz*

After breakfast, mam was the first to change... BUT her, erm, choice of outfit wasnt exactly tat fantastic... Later you'll see...

I was like, huh, can you wear something nicer??? Den she replied me tat she dint have many 'occasion' clothes... *roll eyes* She dressed so qing cai can! To be honest, I felt a little bu shuang coz she realli dressed up VERI nicely during my bro's NUS graduation ceremony... *sulk*

BUT when I saw my good old man, my bu shuang-ness evaporated as quickly as it had come... *hahaz* Even mam was impressed with his outfit (dad looks so suave!!!)... BUT she dint change into something nicer still... *diaoz*

We left house damn late... By right we muz reach there by 8.30am, but we left house at 8.30am... This wasnt a really good move coz WE GOT STUCK IN THE TRAFFIC JAM!!!!

Damn it... I was gan cheong like spider in the car can... Thankfully, daddy is a skilful driver and sped us there on time... *grinz*

Everything seemed to be in a rush when we got there... I almost couldnt find my assigned seat... *pai seh look* Was walking ard the TCC hall like an idiot... *laughz*

The ceremony started with us rising n 'singing' the National Anthem, and then the usual pep talks by the principal (the first time ever I saw him in person worz) and some big shot...

Then... THIS IS IT.

Time to get on stage and receive my hardcore Diploma in Business cert... *haiz* Was so nervous tat my stomach's growling... *hahahz* Visions of me tripping over on stage or other kinds of embarrassing moments happening to me and only me flashed in my mind... OMG so nerve-wrecking... It's been a nong nong time since I went on stage to receive something... Those were back in the secondary school days... *reminiscing look*

During the ceremony, I dunno why, but I suddenly got all emotional as I sat there, watching the top 4 award-winners and their parents on stage, and listening to the MC taletelling their stories behind their success... Dun worrie, I dint cry or wadsoever... BUT it's realli touching...

Thank goodness, after some hiphop dance performance, the whole thing is OVER!!! Which means tat it's time for some RECEPTION!!! *hahahz* And of course, some serious cam-whoring activities to accomplish... *wide grinz*

I abandoned my parents and went to look for my friends to capture our last moments together... *laughz*

BUT hey, my parents dun need me okie! They went straight to the food and ate in one corner... *lolz*

Okie dokie, enough said... Time to admire some of the craziee but great shots we took...

Getting ready for the day...

My graduation attire, which is all squashed up in the plastic bag...

Botak Lester & me

Hydi & me... Hugs!

May & me... Sweet!

Hydi & me, again. Check out her SIA bloody red fingernails... Cool... Hydi, soar to the sky in your Cleopatra bobby hair!!!

They used my cam and shot this. I guess they wanna leave a lasting impression so I will remember them forever and ever. Which is totally unnecessarily becoz even without their act-cute pics, I'll still remember them: Lim Ee May & Wong Hwai Yee Hydi, may you rest in peace... *hahahz* I'm juz kidding.

The four of us... Three fairies and One darkie... So classic...

Shaikh & me... I dint realli know how to spell his name, but it's pronounce as 'shake'... *hahahz* Caught him standing in a corner looking lost, and grabbed him to take a pic wif me... *muahahaz* He's a cool guy who speaks in a veri slang accent, and his heritage is a highly mixed one: Eurasian and Middle East... Cool anot???

Yufeng & me... She purposely stand behind me so my face'll look bigger! Sua xin ji lehz!

Ting Ting & Wan Ting... The two Tings... The only difference is that TingTing pass her Diploma in Biz with MERITS... So smart can!

Me & ShiLing & JiaLing... I like Jialing's hair can! It's exactly wad I have in mind, but I simply lack the courage to chop off my hair... *grimace*

There's a uninvited ghost behind Jialing & me... So bu yao lian can! Keep appearing in other people's pictures... *hahahz*

There she goes again... Let's forgive Hydi-the-next-big-thing-in-SIA, shall we?? And oh, I can't get Namira to take a pic wif me becoz she kept shouting at Thaya for being useless coz Thaya can't take nice pics of her... *roll eyes*

Poor Thaya, she looks kinda sad after being scolded useless by Namira, so I gave her a pat on her shoulder and cheered her up... But still, her smile looks kinda... forced... Namira! How can you treat your best friend lyktt???!!! *humphf* Oh ya, congrats to Thaya for getting admitted to SMU!!!!!!! You go, gal! I knew that Singh likes you afterall! *laughz*

I heart them...

*eew* Looks like Mam's picking her teeth with her tongue in this pic... Forgive her... We took this after eating... Muz be the food kenna stuck somewhere in her teeth... Oh ya, she kept praising the food, said it's soooo much better than NUS and stuff lyktt... As if it wasnt enough, on the way back home, she yadda yadda abt the food too... Aunties... *roll eyes* But I still LOVE them much much!

Swee Lim & me... Saw her on my way to return the graduation attire... *heehee*

Mrs. Philomena See & me... I was juz complaining to mam tat I dint get a chance to see any of my lecturers or tutors, when I turned and saw Mrs. See, my year 1 Organisational Behaviour tutor... She's a veri veri veri sweet, nice, kind, approachable and friendly lady, and she reminds me of my secondary school math teacher, also call Mrs. See... Wad a coincidence...

My three years old, hard-earned cert... Can't believe how time flies... *sighz happily* One down, and one more to go... *grinz*

Okie dokie, tat's all for now... You muz be wondering why I dint go celebrate after the ceremony or wadsoever, right?? Nahz, I'm dead tired... Wanna go straight home to rest... BUT I've still got enough energy to blog this as soon as I reach home... I'm a responsible blogger okie... *grinz* But being a responsible blogger realli takes up my strength... Gotta go and replenish some by napping... *hahahz* Tat's the life, man!

Ciao!
