My MTIM Graduation@UQ (15th Dec 08')

Harlo mates, how's it going? Hohoho, Merry Christmas, everyone!! I've just got back from my superb wonderful trip in Melbourne, don't really want to come back from that fantastic & fun city!! Great city, friendly people with nice weather!! I will blog much about the trip soon...so stay tune for that~

Yeap, finally, I have graduated with my postgraduate course (Master of Technology and Innovation Management) on this very special day, 15th Dec 08', at University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia. After a year and a half of hardships, its time for me to step up and face the reality to get into working career!! There were 2 important things that made this a very special day. First, my ever beloved dad and mum managed to attend my convocation, my two brothers (Hooi & Jiow) with their warmest regards and the luxurious Tissot!! Second, KC & her family attended my convocation too...really thanks to them for spending their precious time here.

This marks the temporary end of my formal academic career, at the age of 23. But I will keep learning for sure, from people around me, things or even news around the globe. It is always intriguing to meet people from different cultural backgrounds, demographics and geographical locations~ I'm really glad that all my fellow senior friends (the usual gang) have done with their study career too, some will go back for good and be good government servants (Kidding ya)...some will apply for PhD studies (Good on 'em)! No matter what it turns out to be, I will be here to wish them best of luck for their future in all sincerity!! Please keep in touch, people...miss all of you~

Love,

Friendships that never fade...

Hot summer, hot hot summer!! The heat wave is hitting the Sunshine state (Queensland). I can't wait to head south for cooling weather...The scorching sun has burnt my skin and I'm like a big PeachyBoy now...;-( Someone please help me to treat my sunburnt cheeks...

The graduation week has started from this week onwards, the dates of the convocation differ according to the faculties in the university. Oh yea, I have successfully finished my postgraduate course and the convocation will be held on 15th Dec (Monday), Weee~! All my fellow gang of friends (biotech geeks) have graduated on 1st Dec as well...JZ has booked me in to be his personal photographer, hmm...its time to sharpen my skill before YOU come over next week...heee!

I have known all of them ever since my arrival in Down Under...These 85' born people have been my greatest mates, chilling, eating, growling, fooling and so on...Time passes in a glimpse and our study life has put up with a great fullstop. However, our friendship will definitely continue to grow for sure...These are all the wonderful moments:

For those Pharmacy graduates (ZW, KF, Shirley, Amy, Ena), I have to apologize for not able to attend your convocation on the 12th Dec as I will be in Sydney with my family. Hereby to congratulate all of you, take care and stay well...

I wish you all the best, may all of you have a prospective future and shine like Twinkle Little Stars...Without all these cares and companies, I wouldn't been able to keep going until this point...Thank you, my beloved friends...

Love,
