convocation marks the end of my academic life. Like a storybook, the convocation ceremony gives a recap of the emotions and feelings before concluding it with a fullstop. I didnt wanna attend convocation. Firstly because it will cost me one day's pay. (it is still no pay leave lah)2ndly because i don like waiting. As predicted, my parents are thrilled to be attending my convo. And also as predicted, convocation costs one day's pay and 1hrs 45 minutes of waiting. BIE was the first to be convocated. and i was the 4 row to go. HENCE> 1 hr and 45 minutes of waiting.
But it is not something i will wanna miss. on my way back from ntu, i know that my choice to choose NTU over NUS, BIE over CBE is correct. Convocation has the ability to draw this fullstop at the end of your chapter, putting all ur memories into place, tidying your emotions and push you forward. Thowing you on a brand new page, writting another story of a different style.
It is always when we look back that we see more good than bad. In the process of reaching this point, we have seeen on the bad, being critical and pessimistic. Only in looking back, do we have the luxury of slowing down our pace, reflect and be grateful.
In the 2 hrs, time seemed to have slowed down, images from the past floated by... making every picture I took, a story on its own. each story spinned off on its own from that picture.
I hope that our stories will cross again..

Gonna: throw the hat. get the script.
Already: Lose the specs.
I am sooo excited. But for the wrong reason. I am looking forward to my 'unpaid leave' next thursday rather than the convocation ceremony itself.
My parents are more excited than I am.
My mom was pissed with me today.
I came home from work with 1 packet of beijin roast duck roll, 2 X fish maw soup. I knew that she will be cooking dinner, but also predicted that soup wldnt be in the menu. Thats why i bought the fish maw soup lah.
AND SHE WAS TOTALLY PISSED OFFFF WITH ME>
cuz she spent alot of effort in making dinner and i bought food home.
SERIOUSLY. I was so hungry that i finished EVERYTHING.including my share of dinner.
I was pissed with her being pissed. But the freshly squeezed orange juice from the fridge extinguished any form of anger i had.
AIYAH. i will NOT buy anything EXTRA home next time

After watching the drama series of lifeline ( i think lah) i am inspired. I wanna do what i can to make sure smth will be done to the waiting time of A&E:)
MJ died. facebook was flooded. many video stores started to play the MJ videos. It is not like I do not like him. I think he's great! A pop icon. the real icon. pls. even beer aunties and uncles know whos MJ. try asking some ah peh who is britney. and you see the difference.
But, he did look better when he was black. it seemed like a rather racist move to make himself white ( if he did it on purpose). The picture above shows a video store in LOT1 playing the MJ video. AND LOOK AT THE CROWD. initially i tot the store was having some promotion or sale lah! den i realised they were looking at the tv. the tv beside was playing the boys over flowers ( korean).. and the crowd was significantly lesser than that of MJ. come on. 4 flowerboys also lose to MJ lah.
