Convocation
7th November 2017. Two months have passed since my convocation day. It was a bless.
I am aware that I don't have a beautiful smile. I wore my biggest smile the whole day. I didn't feel nervous to the extend that I couldn't breathe. I was delighted and knowing that my best friends are by my side, I felt happier than usual.
Waiting for our turn to go up the stage, I saw Masters graduates with the course of Remote Sensing. It came to my senses that I want to be like them. At least, someone who owns a specialty in a certain area. It will come later.
Also, I've never felt so blessed to be given an opportunity to pursue my studies and eventually obtain a degree. I love my parents so much for all the chances they let me have. For all the expenses, time and effort, I sincerely can never repay them. They let me do whatever I wanted despite losing money. I believe Allah has set a good place in the hereafter for I know they truly deserve it. Let me repay them with kindness and care.
I can claim that I worked hard for this degree because I know I did. So are my friends.
Moving on from studies was an awkward period for me. I was used to going to classes, ladang and meeting friends whenever I liked. I liked my social life. It was different then. Everyone had each other and calling one another for a cup of Nescafe and a set of Majuna's roti bakar was never hard as now.
After all these years, the time has come for us to finally part to our own destiny. No more casual hours of lepak session at Majuna, my most favourite mamak place in the whole world. No more carpooling or hitching to class, ladang or anywhere in the campus. No more reminding each other to come to class, knowing friends are waiting. The past is over. It is a beautiful memory and I will cherish it for the rest of my life. Best age ever.
I don't have any slight intentions to cut ties with anyone I called friend. Let's continue being friends for decades; till our last breath. Hit me up for a cup of coffee or tea and a conversation to your preference. I'll be there.
