Ze month of great indulgence - Caryn's graduation

Ze month of great indulgence - Caryn's graduation

A week after Ed's birthday, it was time to celebrate my sister, Caryn's graduation.

She has just completed her Diploma in Advertising and Graphic Design from The One Academy (TOA). Whilst she was studying there, I was working as the Student Counsellor at TOA as well. And I used to be an active committee member for every single graduation ceremony.

It's so different now having to attend TOA's graduation ceremony as a guest instead of a crew.

Here are some of the pictures i treasure.

Pre-event:

Went shoe-hunting a day before the event. Bought this lovely pair of gold stilettos from Cats Whiskers. Peep toe shoes are da bomb!

Seeing that i've been over-spending the last few weeks, i wasnt keen to set my hair and spend another RM70+. So I DIY-ed my hair instead. Nice hor?

During the event:

My lovely sisters..Claudine and Caryn. Caryn and her frens are outside the hall awaiting instructions to march in...



Introducing the graduates of April 06

L-R: Shin Ying, Evonne, sis, Tina, Howard, and Lynda (she's the President of their batch). Lynda gave a very impressive and touching speech that night. Our family was so proud of her. She's Caryn's very close fren and we knew her eons ago.

According to my sis, her frens are all cam-whores..as soon as someone takes out the camera, they're all ready and posing... Yups, i so agree, cos i didn't need to say anything at all, these ppl just got the cue and posed maut as soon as i try to snap a picture of my sis.

Me with the pig, the cow and the cute pink thing (looks like a starfish or wat?)

Hahaha! Posing with these plush toys can be pretty infectious. Look...the bro is posing with Mr moo moo now!! Oh YES, we were really bored to death waiting for the convo to commence.

Caryn's supporters: Calvin, Ken (her bf), Sook Yee. They came loaded with flowers and plush toys.

Sweet memories...

Dad & mum with the graduate

The Three sisters

We were quite paiseh (shy) at first. Bringing so many pressies (see those balloons..oh gosh!), flowers, etc in... Dad was such a good sport. He was proudly ferrying the piggy (McDull) around...hehe, so cute!

Caryn and Ken and all the dan lain lain - kawan kawan sekalian...

The lecturer...

Doesnt this guy look familiar to you? He's Christopher Low. You would have seen him in the "I Wanna Be a Model" series as he's one of the regular judges. He's my sister's guest lecturer. Heard that lotsa gals love attending his photography classes cos he's so damn lengchai..

Seeing that sis was with him, I went up to them and chatted this guy up and took a picture opportunity with him...


After the ceremony, sis and her frens proceeded to party the nite away while the rest of the family decided to call it a nite...

Congratulations once again dear sister! You go girl!

Post event:
Came home and removed those hair pins on my head. I was so surpised that my hair was curling rather prettily. HmmmMmm.. I'm quite tempted to go perm my hair again... You see, i cut off all those curls in Sept when i went for my highlights.

nice? i likes la!
