Kor finally graduated!!! so happy for him! :D
You wouldn't noe how exhilarating it was when the professor called out his name. A resounding "Seow Shu Ming" echoed instantly thruout the audtiorium, and ppl clapped, esp my parents. I was busy focusing that precise moment where he shook hands with the Dean of Engineering. At the moment, my heart skipped a beat and i held my breath. How proud I was to see my dear brother, finally putting his on that famous blue robe and hat and walking up the stage. It has been precisely 25 years, since he was born and I could see tears flowing in Mum's eyes. They must have been so proud, to see their beloved son graduating on this very day.
After that we took some photos with Kor outside the auditorium. Some of his friends' parents didn't come, mebbe they haf their own private celebration later or sth. All of Kor's friends graduated with 2nd Lower Honours and above, quite a mean feat I would say. I'll be glad if i can grad with a 2nd Lower, think not easy man. tough competition.
and finally, last 2 days before my attachment is over!!! WOOHO!! YEAH!!~~~ i've been waiting for this day ever since like the first day?? Man, I can't explain how relieved I was to know that this attachment thingy is finally OVER. Yes, no more breathing in second hand smoke from that irritating, unreasonable biatch aka Black Widow, and no more doin menial work and errands and getting occasional stares and scolding from Boss. Come to think of it, Yvonne and Yemon are still the best colleagues here. Yvonne always buy us free food like goreng pisang, XO durians, cakes, BK, and what nots. And Yemon's laughter is forevar so bubbly n cheerful, it's always nice to haf her around. And we'll discuss about the food or songs she hear in Myanmar and what the things she do when she's back home and stuff. Loads of chit-chatting, gossiping about BS (esp gossips about HER, man i can write into a 2,000 word essay!!) and doing work together. This is prob the only positive side out of this whole attachment thingy. ;)
And i'm leaving this Sunday for Perhentian diving!!!!!! Another event that is soooo much anticipated (I have alr made plans since last July!!) :P Really can't wait to go diving man, altho i noe my stamina is super bad *oops* but still, i can't wait to feel the sea water, breathing in nitrogen, looking at the wonderful marine life and spending time with Ugin. :)
Boss is treating tom's lunch and Friday's dinner!!!! haha that means i can save on my meals again!! ;P this is so great! But i haven't paid for my Perhentian trip, luckily Mum is sponsoring me abt half of the trip, else I'll be so pok kai! O_o
'nuff said, time for my 'religious' readings of mrbrown, mr miyagi, kenny sia, finicky feline n xiaxue! nitez.......
