Spent yesterday for the graduation. It was a LONG day, lots of walking, and having a massive headache at the end of the day never helps. BUt lucky Pete was there the whole day and took REALLY good care of me. :) Whatever would I do without him I'm not too sure. He just made the day so perfect. :)
Okay, switch off my mushy mode before people get too sick... :)
Graduation day is the easiest day to seperate the Asians from the rest of the population: ALL the Asians will spend a good part of the day in Albert park taking photos.
It's a good day to see people you haven't seen in a while though. I met a few of my friends whom I haven't seen in ages. It's actually quite good, and you do get to catch up with people. So it's all well justified. And of course, since I just got my brand new camera, you'll expect lots of photos being taken. Pete was having a lot of fun just playing with it. IN fact I think we might find a day when we're free to just go and take photos. :P
Anyway, it's scary to see fellow Chinese in these sort of situations. The majority of them are okay really, but it's the odd few that made me also understand why some people are racist (well, ALMOST). You see people that aren't really sitting around on a bench just standing right in front of it just for the sake that no one sits there and they can go back to it. I don't know... in a way it's almost expected. This sort of selfish inconsiderate behaviour is quite typical of us. Not saying we're all like that of course, and not saying other nationalities don't do it, but it does seems like a trade mark.
*sigh*I still hope to get over this complex about hating the fact that I'm Chinese, but on days like that, it's kinda hard...
P.S.: I guess seeing the engineers clearing up all the food in the free lunch within 5 minute isn't much better huh...
