Menjelang Majlis Konvokesyen USM ke-40


The USM 40th Convocation will be held on 12 - 16 August 2009, and I will be one of the graduands to receive the MSc scroll on the first session. But I am not as excited as during my undergraduate convocation at IIUM. The feeling is different. It's obvious.. I've just spent one year at USM.

Last time, someone said to me that the undergraduate convocation is a must, once in a lifetime. Unlike for Masters and PhD, people do not really care about convocation. It's maybe true. My wife and mom are those who really want to see me receiving the scroll for the second time. Well, fulfilling others' wish is quite a good reason to attend the ceremony. Right?


By the way, Alhamdulillah, I'm glad that I've reached up to this point, but of course the sky is always the limit. And very soon after this convocation, I'll be temporarily back to IIUM..Insya Allah.

Thanks cik illiey! Hmm..convo ni sbnrnya memerlukan pengorbanan ms & tenaga yg lebih..mmg penat, bersesak2 dgn org rmai. dah la kat usm skrg kes H1N1 agak menakutkan. Graduan & stp org yg msuk dwn pun kna screening test. yg pkai mask pun rmai..haha.
