Last Tuesday was finally my graduation ceremony. Most of us have been looking forward to that very day and i got to say, i was pretty nervous and excited about it. The one important thing on my mind though was actually "how do i look?!" HAHAHA. Had to look good in the pictures okay cause they were gonna be framed up! :D

Flowers from my aunt :)

We headed to campus early to avoid any sort of queue of people lining up to take pictures. Had our studio pictures done first then walked around searching for nice locations. Which wasn't that much if you're only intending on taking graduation photos. The other areas are more for photoshoots.

Michele was there too and she helped out with our group pictures. Thanks Michele! :)

Hello there :)

Went to Carousel again for last minute shopping for the family (after changing of course). And then at 4ish, i headed to campus early to meet up with the girls for pictures! <3 All pictures taken off Melissa.

We had to wait for Bowie to arrive, as usual haha. And his dad tagged along and omg, they sound and talk the same!

People were already starting to pile in and it was time for us to get ready for our ceremony. I kept fiddling with my mortarboard cause it was so loose and i was really scared that it might fall off when i walked across the stage. I think my hair got ugly though :S Wonder how the pictures turned out eeks.

6 extra tickets. I had a whole entourage of family hehe.

We had fireworks at the end and my gosh was it beautiful. Even cny fireworks back home can't beat that. But uh, its just my iphone that made it look retarded. No dslr sorry!

Mom and dad. I sort of cried when i hugged them. Really grateful for everything they've done and how they've supported me through everything. Even supporting me again for masters. Love you both!

Hug attack from the cousins!

It was packed at the refreshment booths so we couldn't be bothered to wait and i suggested we just head somewhere else for dinner. Laura wanted Italian for dinner so i suggested Ciao Italia. Saw a couple of graduates there too and oh, even Bowie and his dad haha.
