post graduation blues

really having mixed feelings bout going home.

packing.... is really tiresome. continuously weighing and reweighing, throwing stuff, reweighing. sigh..

leaving... it's great that i'll get to see my family and friends back home. and eat all the hawker food. can't wait. but then again, i really miss my life here. my friends, my life group, my juniors, the ease of traveling, the companions to travel with, walking to the shops, basically everything here! not forgetting the nice cool weather and the super speed internet connection.

sighzzz.. emo emo...

the only thing i don't miss is the exams. man am i glad they are all over. for good. whee!

our ceremony was held in barony hall, which is actually a church that the university bought for a mere penny, then spend duno millions or how much to restore. it's really beautiful though, and gave a nice atmosphere for the graduation ceremony.



after the whole ceremony, we went to the reception for a very quick drink (more like finished it in a gulp), then fiona, jason and i went back in search of the barony steps where we were supposed to have group photos taken.

potluck for ray's 21st birthday

we had a surprise pre-birthday celebration/countdown at corinthians. nice music. nice place to chill. saw how a shot is done. saw some lucky guy get smooched by some drunk scottish lady. also finally met ray's sister. i think everyone had a great time. how could anyone not?


the next day was another surprise potluck for ray. all the food was laid out on the grassy area behind thomas campbell. the day was sunny and fine too.i think this time he was really surprised.

oxy caught in action.

people bringing food in.

potato wedges made by oxy since that morning.;p it was really addictive.

sam's fruit salad prior to mixing with yogurt.

mashed potato. seriously nice.

didn't manage to take shots of all the food. all were so nice. there was some indian curry, sandwiches, rice, bee hoon, vegetables and so on. and also chips.=]

birthday kiss**

ray's present from them all.

really had fun. they are a very fun group. really missed huey ying they all too! feel a bit nostalgic seeing as this will be the last event i can hang out with them.

anyways, to all my juniors, all the best to your final year! till we meet again.=]
