convocation

i attended my sister's convocation today at sheraton subang(5 minutes away from my house)
she graduated with Master of Pharmacy (IMU-Stratclyde pharmacy programme) with distinction!!
it was a good opportunity to wear the baju kebarung! haha! the same one my sister wore for her convocation at University of Stratclyde (which unfortunately, i didn't get to attend. sob sob)
we went there not-so-early. they closed all the parkings already! had to park opposite the road, and had to walk quite far. i was so kekok wearing the baju kebarung. no practise walking you see. never worn a baju kurung since my high school days.
saw many colourful bouquets of flowers, teddy bears with mortar board. still cannot locate mashi maro with mortar board. :(
took a seat in the ballroom and a few rows away, there was this lady holding a bouquet of sunflowers with a mashimaro wearing a mortar board. it was sooooo cute!!!
anyway, the ceremony was..well like a convocation la. haha.
speeches, and conferment of the graduating students.
congrats to all of you!! ^^
and i was thinking..hmm..i'll be attending my own convocation next year (if all goes well)

gorgeous bouquet of roses from my sister's bf. bright sunny yellow and classic red.
now there are three bouquet of roses st home. two dried ones. and one fresh blooming one ;)


why am i carrying the flowers???


something looks wrong
me being gatal stole the mortar board to wear, can officially wear it in..erm...three and a half years time (and yet again. if all goes well)
after the ceremony there was the reception (something i was looking forward too. hahah!!) and lots of photo taking.
looking forward to my own convocation!!
