******CONVOCATION******
On a usual day like today, I would be soundly asleep at 6am. But today I had to drag my sorry ass out of the bed to go for convocation. Was feeling so darn lazy and tired after everything when I knew that I can't drag myself back to bed after convocation, OK sorry for the early whining.
Our convocation held at Sheraton Subang. IMU seems to have all its convocation ceremony in Sheraton Subang. It was quite an elaborate affair to acknowledge the achievements of all our students who would be future doctors, nurses etc..
Seriously there was a time when I didn't want to come for this because the road to become a doctor is only halfway, so when I heard convocation... I was like wat??? I only thought of it almost towards the very last moment. We ain't doctors yet, so why a convocation ceremony? But If I were to follow my good ol' reasoning i wouldn't have known the astounding number of people from our batch making it into the dean's list, the Gold medalist, meet back old pals, scrambled to take pics and of course take our Graduation Photo.
Everyone was dressed for the occasion. Somehow, even when this is not da real thing yet, the atmosphere had that certain kind of importance, like a step towards greater things.
There really isn't a point to narrate the chronology of events in our convocation. The most jaded part of the entire illustrious affair was when the big shot who "was bestowed the power to start the ceremony" started giving his speech, which I feel sort of mar things a bit."That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."Neil Armstrong
Now for pics, too many to load to slide. So juz put some here for viewing pleasure.
Ok the gist of it, our batch M204, a legendary batch, as Jay had put it had the most number of students in the Dean's List.
It totally demolished all previous records of students who made it previously in other batches. We had an astounding 74 people in the Dean's List.
Khoo Hau Chun was the superstar for the day, our beloved Gold Medalist.
Indeed I believed our batch is one of the greatest batch around, gifted, talented, brilliant, active and different.

I believe that many great things will come from the people who came from M204.
I sure hoped William and the peeps in da camera gang managed to upload tons and tons of pics for all to see.
