17/7/2009... another date to remember. What is so special about it? It was my graduation ceremony day.
I just looked at all the pix taken & I know I must write this entry right away b4 the feeling fade away. When I looked at those pix, especially when the ceremony took place.... it's really hard to describe my feeling. The feeling is not the same like when u receive ur degree or master. One word that I could think of is proud. Yes, I really proud of what I've achieved :). It's been a long journey & not easy. And now, I am sooooooooooo happy!!
Even though syawal hasn't finished his correction yet, both me & syawal wore the robe. So we had our family pix taken at the studio plus other pix that cost us about 150 pnd, huuhuhhuhu. Once in a lifetime, hehheheheheh. The ceremony was simple yet very sweet. I was the 1st recipient for the PhD award & u couldn't imagine how nervous was I b'cos it wasn't like u walk to the chancellor & he'll give you the scroll. I was really afraid if I do mistake, hehehhe. Here in UK, for PhD award, the chancellor will put the hood on you. For that you have to bent down. B4 that, you must put the folded hood on ur right hand. When the head of scholl announce ur name, u've to hand the hood to the special marshall beside u. He will then walk with you to the chancellor. After putting on the hood, the chancellor will hold ur hand & say something that I barely could remember what he said. The only thing that I remember is "U must be very relieved". indeed I am.
Anyway, syawal & syafique were there inside the hall but syra had to wait outside. I can only bring 2 guest with me. Besides, they have age restriction & syra definitely cannot get in. Syafique was very handsome yesterday & he actually was very excited too. He wanted to wear his scoat (bought at CBS at 20pence!!) since morning. Not even that, he asked for a tie!!. What a dear boy. syra is like always...sleeping,crying & hungry!!!. Ooooo... I just remmeber, she poo poo & I had to change her while wearing my robe. Normally she poo poo at noon but yesterday she decided to hold it until her mom wearing the robe, hikhikhik. What a 'naughty' girl.
Suddenly I have no idea what to write *sigh*. I just want to say... I am one happy lady, surrounded by all the ppl that I love. To friends who came yesterday.. thanks for coming & it make me happier even more.
I will try to upload the pix to my FB ASAP and put some of them here. I know my family back in Msia are also anxious to look at my graduation pix :).
