Gowns and mortar boards???

From the title, I'm sure you can guess what is it that I'm gonna ramble about here in my blog. Okay, it is our CIMP graduation. Nothing really grand besides the photo-taking and all that. The people there who were in-charge of the gowns.... I have nothing to say. Those other graduates dunno how to use their eyes. They were like pushing around and I was really HOPING I didn't trip over or sth because you know, if I fall, it's no joke. Saying excuse me is like something foreign to them when some of them are actually ENG4U students. Haih... whatever la... they just don't care.

Oh yeah, thanks Suet Teng for teman-ing me until at least the inside of 4-17 where the hoo-ha was going on.

I forgot my stupid slip of paper(no slip, no deposit) but then again I was thinking HOW MANY THINGS would I have to carry in my hand? Expecting at least something huge to hold in my hand I ended up with:-

Devi's origami bird specially folded for me :)
The very blue cylinder that contained pieces of paper
and...
the leaflet showing their promotions of gowns plus photos and all that.

See?

Maybe I'm small-sized but I still think that gown isn't S-size. It's super huge more like L or even XL. It was bothering me from the very start of the speeches till the end of the ceremony. People were looking, I'm sure. :P

Thank goodness they didn't have mortar boards. They arranged us in ALPHA order in the lect theatre before going to the hall. So, you can imagine how long it took for me to get a place to sit (if u know my surname) What's more mr plouffe was like erm... (my name) can u sit in the next row??? Gah... kalau bkn pasal gaun itu kan...

Was brought to the hall and in between they were actually searching for Yanita. Haha... kenapalah kau tak datang???

Anyways, I was PRAYING HARD when I went up the stage.... because I was wearing FLATS and the gown was HUGE so anytime I made a WRONG step, I could just collapse. Because I couldn't wait to get off the stage, I went slightly faster and haha Mr Welch went: hang on hang on :) So, yeah, name announced...






I MADE IT :)
I walked up that stage :)
I heard voices. People were cheering for ME!!!!

:) :) :) Yugga told me she did cheer for me. Thanks gal. Thanks everyone for calling out my name.

Well, I thought I could just walk off the stage after receiving that BLUE cylinder container which contained papers inside. But, Mr Boucher caught me at the end of it all and gave me a HUG. I was completely clueless and blur about what happened after I received the BLUE thing that when he said he wanted to hug me I just went :- HUH????

LOL

OMG
He hugged me :)




Imagine that happening again during your degree. I'd be loads happier :)
