Between End of October & Early November 2012~

Hi readers! How are you? I know that I left my blog for quite long. I was too tired and lazy to update my blog. I would like to apologize to my blog, I will try my best to update you. Last week I was busy with a 2 days of workshop training, rehearsal, photo-shooting, friends meet up and lastly, my first big day of my life. I was lucky enough that I can attend the workshop because I managed to get a complimentary seat from the organizer and I do not need to work for 2 days. The workshop was about the importance of sustainability for infrastructures and it was a wake up call for everyone, to protect our mother Earth and also our future. After the workshop, I have to work for a day before I am on leave. There were so many things that I need to follow up after the 2 days workshop. It was not easy for me to finish the things before I can take leave on the next day. I was thinking what will happen if I take leave for a week or a month? Last Friday, I went back to my university to attend the rehearsal for my big day. It was a boring rehearsal because all I need to do is to remember where to stand only. After the rehearsal and lunch, my ex-classmates & I went to few iconic places in my university for photo-shooting. It was hot when we wore the robes under the bright Sun, jumped here and there but it was worth and fun because we know that we do not have the chance again to take picture together in the future. It took around 2 hours to complete the photo shooting. Went to Puchong to meet my ex-roommates. Ate and talked for hours until midnight. It shows that we did not meet for a long long time and many things that we wanted to share, from the hostel life to study life and lastly working life. It is not easy to maintain this kind of friendship. Saturday was a family day for me. Had a family photo-shooting together and I realized that the studio that I booked is not cheap. But I hope that the quality of the photos will be very good since the studio has a good reputation on photo quality. After dinner, my best buddy purposely came all the way from his house to Kampung Subang and he gave a gift to me. I was grateful that his sincerity, skipped his dinner time to meet me. It's a good friendship between us and I hope that it will last long. It was a nervous night for me before my big day. I was thinking what will happen on my big day. Slept less than 5 hours, I rushed to my university on my big day morning with my parents. I need to be at the hall compound by 7am. When I reached there, I saw many graduates' family members and friends at there. Thanks God. It was a chilling day. I do not have to sweat a lot. If not, I will smell like a fried squid. I met few of my ex-classmates. Most of them were late. Maybe it was due to the distance and time arrangement. I noticed all girl classmates put on their make up. They transformed from a study look student to an office lady. Same goes to guys, wore formal shirt and looked smart. It was a messy event. Too many people. When I entered into the hall with other graduates, everyone were looking at us. It was the moment that we can walk like a Hollywood star on a red carpet. We looked so cool. After the graduates & VIP processions, the ceremony started with the opening speech continue with the scroll conferment. It took 3 hours for me to wait for my turn to receive my scroll. Imagine how bored I felt in the hall. During the conferment, I saw few of the graduates acted funny when the received their scroll from the Pro-Chancellor. I think it was a pathetic act and they should respect the ceremony. Meanwhile, everyone of us were thinking on how to receive the scroll while looking at the camera at the same time. For me, I was thinking that it's better for me not to look at the camera and just concentrate on the conferment. It was a delighted moment when I went up to the stage and receive my scroll from the Pro-Chancellor. I greeted him and he replied and smile at me. Luckily I did not fell down. After 30 minute, the ceremony was ended. Every graduates walked out from the hall together for the last time. I saw many people out there. They were waiting for the children or friends who just graduated. I met my family members back outside. I was happy that my family members able to joined with me on my big day and my few of my friends came and met me. I would like to thank them  for their presence &the gifts. I managed to have a dinner with my juniors because I know that I will be not going back to my university for a long time. Meanwhile, I was a little bit sad after my big day because I could not manage to take photo with most of my ex-classmates and also few of my friends that could not come. Too bad, no fate. Life still need to move on. I am officially as a 'Bachelor'. I have to plan for the next step of my life and I hope it will goes smoothly. Big thanks to my family that encouraged & supported me to study so far until this level. I love you all. Gratitude to my teachers from primary and secondary schools who taught me well. Thanks to my lecturers from college and university for creating me as a 'Bachelor' today. Happy to know a lot of friends during my 17 years of study. Best of luck to everyone.


Before I end my post, I would like to share a poem that I heard from a movie on yesterday evening. It was an inspirational poem that moved my heart.

Though much is taken, much abides; and though

We are not now that strength which in old days

Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are...

One equal temper of heroic hearts,

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will

To strive, to seek, to find,

And not to yield..

Nice Jump!
