Convocation – An EUPHORIC occasion!
Finally… the day has came and I GRADUATED!!!
The convocation ceremony held at Sheraton Subang and we were required to be there by 7am for briefing, rehearsal and robing. We were late... as usual... Haha. Sorry to May as we made her late as well.
The ceremony started at 10am sharp with the procession of US. It was like we are superstars as everyone starred at us when we walked in the grand ballroom on the red carpet… we were seated and the ceremony began with the boring speech... after the boring speech, we waited for our turn to go to the stage and receive the degree folder from IMU chancellor. We walked a big round around the hall to receive flowers, this-and-that before we went back to our seats. After the conferment, it was the announcement of Gold Medalist, Dean’s List and Book Prizes… and… the END of ceremony!
I've finally achieved something GREAT in my life! I've made my family and friends proud! (I hope i did...) I've reached a great milestone in my life!
In the robing room, Pey Ying was adjusting the hood for Chuan Zhen.
