26th July 2011 officially marks the end of my academic life. After having spent 23 years of my youth in education, I have graduated! I made my parents proud and I know they have been waiting for this day ever since I stepped into the university.
Daddy & Mummy!
Before the start of the convo ceremony.
Then the Dean & Professors arrived.
And we sang the National Anthem.
Soon, it was my turn! I was still What'sApp-ing boy that I am really scared because I have stage fright, since young!
Spot me?
Video!
Our valedictorian made a speech on behalf of the Class of 2011 (Bachelor of Engineering) and requested for all of us to stand up, turn to our parents and give a round of applause to them as well as to ourselves. Standing from where I was, I felt a surge of emotions - Touched. My parents raised me up and brought me to where I am and I am really grateful to all they have done for me! I have not disappointed them! :)
After a long 2 hours, the solemn ceremony ended.
To the reader who requested for a snapshot of the heels I bought, here's the one which I wore to convocation! I chose a simple plain design without any additional stuffs because this is one pair I can go for interviews. :)
In a desperate attempt to change to my pair of slippers because I never got used to wearing heels! Lol.
The graduation bear which boy gave me :)
Then we were all so famished we headed to the buffet corner!
Busy smsing away to brother
Boy met his ex there!
:)
Mechanical Engineering ladies!
Brother came after the whole ceremony because he had meetings to attend! :(
Family shoot.
At Lee Wee Nam Library where I always used to go!
I have made it! :)
