UNLV Graduation Day

Finally the day came for the 24 of us to graduate.. after one yr since our last lesson... The graduation itself was quite a joke as it was not the usual serious graduation ceremony.. but more of like a kindergarten class graduation... some of us got quite pissed off.. others were just glad to have not attended it at all... for me, i chose not to attend it but yet i turned up to meet my old friends...

Looking back at the past one yr, all of us have graduated and moved into the different areas which we want to be in... some of us have left the events industry, some like me have stayed in the industry, doing events and still refining the way we craft our events... we still have a long way to go but i know we will get there in the end...

on the way to the ceremony, i wondered to myself, if you were here with me, would you share my joy of graduation with me and be proud of me? I wanted very much to share this joy with you... while most of the time, my feet were not planted onto the ground, you were my anchor and kept me focused... now that i can plant my own two feet into the ground on my own, would you be proud of me?

the other day, cubix and i went into an indian restaurant and over there, naturally, i got reminded of you... the nice restaurants we went to, the boo boos I had made with the super sweet dessert and water and of cos, the moo moos and elephants which i loved so much... sometime further ago, your colleague dropped me an email asking about me and said she wanted to carry on being a friend with me despite all that has happened... while her reason for replying almost 8 mths later was rather unbelievable, i still couldn't let myself be friends with her again... sometimes, i wonder how would i react if i had seen you somewhere along the streets of our old office? would i avoid you or would i be gracious enough to forget everything and say hi?
