Graduation day

Where am I these days?

I was honoured to be invited by my friend to attend her graduation ceremony on 13 Dec. On that day, Dunedin was full of joyness and sunshine. It was also a good sunny day to capture many many photos as you like. We took alot of photo on that day to capture every scene in campus so that my friend can have all beatiful memories where she have been studied in Otago Uni for 5 years. What I can say is the weather, people all perfect! Even though I am not the main character on that day, I still feel excited and happy when you see so many graduans and family took photo in front of the Otago Uni main building - the ClockTower. Such atmosphere reminded me so much on my graduation in 2001. My family members were with me that time, all the way down from North to South just to attend my graduation.

Around 3pm the graduans and audiences had taken their respective seats in the town hall and the background music was the live-play of the typical classic scotland music. The Cancellor started his "busy job"to award each graduan and shake hand with them. A graduan was so funny, when the MC called his name, his supporters at the audience seat shout out "Go, go Michael!" He was so relax and when he got up the stage, first, he shaked hand with the Cancellor and then, all of surprise, he approached the Cancellor and hug him tightly. I can see the expression of the Cancellor, he looked a bit lost and shocked. haha. the serious and formal atmosphere turned up to be comedy scene. Not bad. Every one was laughing happily.

After 1 and half hour, the graduation ceremony was ended. Everyone went out to wait for the graduans. I managed to see SB and her family members and managed to take photo with my friend - with her huge certificate. It looks great. Her dad and cousin were very proud of her! After a long day, we decided to walk back, and believe or not we order 3 boxes of huge pizza for only 4 persons. We really had a good day on 13 Dec. Happy!

To Anh, CK, Karen: Congratulations & all the best for your new working life soon! CHEERS!

food

I miss msia & spore food so much. Everyday I will have some time craving about those delicious food! What to do, I am not a good cook, I can't expect myself to cook those delicious dishes that I desire for. So normally when I miss hometown food, what I will do is go to the friendly house in town to have a bowl of chicken noodle soup. Even though it is not totally the same as back home, but it works to cure my desire of eating and homesick. Trust me, it works!

The other day, I missed Spore fish noodle soup and fish soup + white rice. Yum! Man, mouth watering! Last few years when I worked in Singapore, the office is located nearby the eating paradise, is called Ah Moy Street. Food there is cheap and delicious. It is so hard to find a seat during lunch time. So you will easily spot out many tissues packet put on top of a seat or a big umbrella put on top of the table, this is the culture, hehe! This means that the table or seat have been taken! >>>p I am looking forward to eat my fish noodle soup soon, with the spicy chilli and lots of black salted bean and ginger! yum...

Today is all about food!

o eh o

I am still finding a job, still trying very hard. . . One of the company wrote me an email to acknowledge me that my application for the job was failed. The more I received this kind of emails, I guess I will get numb soon. Never mind, never mind, search again, hope there are other doors waiting for me. Be positive always!

These days I am in the "waiting" mood. Waiting for my thesis result, waiting for emails, waiting for calls, waiting for fren to come back, waiting for any job applications, waiting and waiting. Waiting for uncertainty is kind of scary though. Well, life is not a straight line >>p

Stay positive is the best solution at this stage...
