Last Saturday, my brother had his convocation. It was held at The Palace of The Golden Horses Hotel (Grand, isn’t it?). I don’t quiet sure why they choose to do it at this hotel. Yes it is a 5 stars hotel. But the contras is that each student can bring only 2 people they want to their convocation and a fee of RM100 need to be payed for each person. This is a difficult decision for a person to choose 2 people among their friends and family to bring to their convocation or to choose to save their RM200 instead of bring their friends or family. Maybe their place is to small to accommodate many people since their number of students that graduate today is quiet a number.

We depart from home early in the morning since the convo start at 10 o’clock. Arrived there, the first and foremost thing i wanna do is take many pictures there (mostly my picture. Hehe). Arrived there, we go and take my bro convo suit. When my mom and my bro wife done dressing him up, he went for a photography session. To my surprise, for one student to take their picture alone (the one that will have a bookshelf background. I wonder why bookshelf. Hehe.) is RM100 if i’m not mistaken. The price is higher if they want to take a family picture. What s price they put there. They are thinking that every students there will want to take their picture at their most proudest moment and put a high price for that. Huhu.

My brother choose his wife and mom to be in the room. It was a great decision but i can’t stop thinking what will my father think. But i sure want my mother and father to see my convocation :). But what can we do since only 2 are allowed per students. Between your mom and your father, who would you choose if it was you? Nobody can straightly answer that without thinking carefully especially if you think about either of their feeling. Huhu. While the convo is running, my father take us a tour around the hotel. Not much to be seen here at the hotel. There is no playground or arcade to played there while waiting. What a place to choose as a convocation place. What can other person who’re not in the convo room to do? After a short tour, we went back to lobby and settled there. I choose the most softy and comfortable chair and rest my body there. I fell asleep without knowing. Hehe.

It was a nice nap (more like cat nap). i went to my father and see him also sleeping. My sister is taking care of others there. I wonder how long will the convo take. I was surprise it is 2 hours program. I never went to a convo before. Even the one in UTP. Every time they held one, i had to go home for something urgent. Huhu. For the remaining 1 and a half hour, i went around the hotel lobby searching for any entertainment. There is a wall of fame where they held the picture of the vip that ever stayed there. After sreening all the faces there, I recommend my seat to my sisters and all three of us make ourself at home there while nother 3 of my siblings still at my father side. For the remaining time left, i played my game at my sister’s handphone. (if you’re wondering why not my handphone, since i got a nice camera, i gave it to my mom to take my brothers pic. Hehe.)

When the convo is finished, we group back at the lobby and take our family picture. There is much to write what happen along the waiting period but not very important to be told. We ask one pak cik to take our family picture there. But a problem arise where my handphone picture become blurry for each picture taken. It take time to readjust it but it can’t be fixed. But the picture taken is better after being adjusted. Another problem is that there is another thing inside the picture other than our family. It was the stick of that pak cik spectacle. But what can be done. We continue taking pictures of ourselve and went home after that.

That day is the most happiest day my brother ever had if i want to comment. He seems very happy to had his convocation today. But what i see most is the happiest faces of my parent. They must be very proud to see their first son had been so successful. What parent doen’t fell happy and satisfied when their children are successful. Eventhough they did not show from their expression (there is a kind of father tat show only serious face to their children even thought they feel happy at that particular time), one way or another you can see that they are happy. This make me more eager and spirited to do my best in my next 2 semester (is it?). Every child want to make his parent happy. Our parent had sacrifice many things to make us successful. It is up to us to take it or not. But making my parent happy is the greatest price to pay for every sacrifice they had made. Hehe.

I think i wanna go to sleep now. I had work tomorrow and since i’m using my little bro computer to write this blog, he seem like dying waiting for me to end. Shish. I will write when i had a free time like this. Maybe something that already happen one or two weeks ago. It doesn’t matter for me if anybody want to read it or not. Feel free to coment. Hehe.

    Salam.. Haha, ade pon update baru. Eh, sekali-sekala tu online la, bleh chat2 skit. Ko ape kabo? Seronok tgk gi convocation. Eh, bukan ke mmg kat mane2 pn, convo mmg boleh masuk dua org je. Kalo semua bleh masuk, benda dah xjadi cam spesial sgt pulak.. Aku rasa la, tapi xsemestinye betul pn. huhu… And, diorg xde pasang live broadcast ke kat luar, so org yg xdpt masuk bleh tgk dari luar. Kalo kat utp, masa convo akak aku tu, dia ade pasang video kat luar, so dapat gak aku tgk akak aku ambik scrol kat atas tu. Haha.. Eh, kalo ko nk online ke bgtau la, so aku bleh online gak.
