Graduated!!! At Long Last!!

12 July 2008; 1500hrs; University Cultural Centre, NUS

That's the details for my Commencement (Graduation) Ceremony in NUS. After a long last, finally I've graduated with Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical) with Honours (2nd Lower). Looking at my transcript, those cross faculty modules are those that killed my grades, else I believe I could have gotten 2nd upper. Anyway, what's done cannot be undone, and I'm quite happy that I graduated from NUS in one piece..haha!!

Below are pictures from my Commencement....enjoy!

New phase in life...

At my gf's house now..she's not home...or rather..she's on her way home at this moment as I type..haha..came over to the house nearby the barber shop to have my hair cut...it's difficult to manage..

tomorrow is a long awaited day..my Graduation Day!!! my gf graduated 2 times (1 from NIE and 1 from NTU) and I've yet to graduate...now's my turn!!! yipee!!!

been looking for a job since my exams were over and happy to say that PSA and ST Aerospace offered me a job..at first..wanted to accept PSA as it's a global company but then.........

my dad's colleague worked in PSA before and it's the same job as what I applied and was accepted. Thus, he advised me going for that job as it has not much of prospects. After 1 hr of talking by my dad, he made me realize that deep within me, the passion for aerospace / aviation is there strongly and shouldn't just give up on the ST aerospace offer cos of working environment.

Like what my HR lecturer told me, "one may need to be in a not-my-wish kind of environment first in order to progress to a promising one", thus, I should go for my wish to be in the aviation industry..

will be signing the appointment letter this coming Wednesday and will start work the following Monday..don't really know what to expect just that happy that I can be near planes...haha!

All the best to me and my career in ST Aerospace!!
