Kuala Terengganu Time
I'm OFFICIALLY GRADUATED!!
BBA (HONS) BANKING & FINANCE 2010~
02.08.2010, a date to remember in my life where I'm officially declared as a degree holder of Banking & Finance in Multimedia University.
Wake up at 5am in the morning to prepare myself for my convocation ceremony which held in MMU Cyberjaya Campus. My family and I depart from Sunway to Cyberjaya and the duration is only 18 minutes. We reached Cyberjaya at 6.20am.. Oh My God, I'm one of the early birds among graduates.. Haha~ Just because want to get nearer parking lot.. =)
After the final smart card verification, I noticed that the Cyberjaya campus became crowded and crowded as time passed. I met many of my friends from different majoring in that early morning. Around 7.10am, the working committee arranged us for the gathered room, as the parents were move to their seats prepared by the committee in the grand hall. After 15 minutes, the graduates had to line up and ready to enter the grand hall to start the convocation ceremony.
The ceremony starts right after the arrival of our respective Chancellor, Tun Dr. Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali. The ceremony of giving away the scroll by the Tun Chancellor began with the Accounting students, followed by Banking & Finance and the rest. I'm number 203 graduates who received the scroll from Tun Chancellor. I'm proud to receive the scroll from Chancellor herself.
The scroll giving ceremony ended after 4 hours. It's the time for Permata Dunia before we leave the hall. For those who don't know what Permata Dunia is, it is the official song for our MMU. While the song played, my tears dropped. Don't ask me why.. Perhaps I'm too happy with my self-achievement and at the same time hold a name of Graduated Banking & Finance student! The students stand beside me looking at me wiping my tears away.. Lolz!
When I'm out from the hall, the first thing is to find my family members~ It's a MUST.. I received flowers from my family and we took few family photos. Again, my tears nearly dropped once I looked at my family members, especially both my parents. Without your continuous support and encouragement, I couldn't made it this time.. Thanks dad and mom.. Proud to be your eldest son! Not forgotten my naughty brother.
After the session with my family, the time is surely for my lecturers and friends. I took quite many photos with my lecturers and friends during the time. But sadly, not all the friends I can took with. Some of the friends could be labeled as "missing" because the campus was too big and crowded with peoples. It's common when it come to lost. Unfortunately, the cell phone could not be used at the moment. So, I just took photos with friends that I met. For those friends who I failed to met, so sorry for that and hope we can meet again!
Importantly, I had took photos with my 3 bros' and 1 sis' (My lecturers) namely Mr. Effandi (My Lecturer since my foundation studies until the very last moment of my FYP supervisor), Mr. Tan (My Lecturer for Management, Statistic and Research Methodology), Mr. Ng (My Lecturer for International Finance) and Ms. Ong (My tutor for quite a number of subject).. To all my lecturers, thanks for teaching and guiding me all the time in my university life. Your contribution is much appreciated. I wouldn't have today without you.. =)
After taking photos for some time, it's time to say goodbye to all my lecturers and friends. I had to rush back my hometown right after the convocation ceremony. So, I only have limited time to spend with my friends for photo session. I returned back my robe at 1.20pm and leaved Cyberjaya at 1.30pm... At that time, I just realised that I haven't took my breakfast and lunch.. I'm so excited and happy until I had forgotten I haven't took a single meal.. That time I was extremely hungry..
To all my friends: Congratulations upon your graduation!! Good luck and all d best in your future undertaking.. Take good care and keep in touch.. Let's frame our sweet and sour memories together.. Friendship forever!!
