Well, the event we have been waiting for 21 years finially came and went...graduation day !!!!. My son Morgan graduated on wednesday 16/12/09 in Business ( accounting ) . What a relief !....RM300,000 later all he got was a piece of paper...hahaha. We had to pay for the seats in the auditorium and the parking. One would think after all that investments to QUT, at least the parking should be free...no,no,no...nothing is free here.
Really!! We went for dimsum and guess what, we had to pay for the chilli sauce, yes, pay for the chilli sauce. How to eat dimsum without that? They gave us one small saucer of chilli sauce and soya sauce....for 5 people.
The only thing that is free is the toilet paper, thin, very thin, but free. You have to pay for tomato sauce too. next time I will not leave home without it...chilli sauce I mean !
Anyway, the ceremony was interesting, seeing all the different shapes and sizes parading up front. Some dressed for the occassion and some graduated in shorts and slippers, jeans, t-shirts...oh so sampah!!!! the aussies are so laid back.Even some parents came in everyday clothes, maybe they havent got time to iron their formals. Who knows ?
Of course all the asian parents came dressed well, well at least in their going out clothes. They drink before the ceremony, drink after the ceremony and probably got all noshed up after too. Asian parents would probably go home and take more pictures...hahaha. Well, we didnt, cos we were so hungry we had to fill our stomachs first. But what a day. It didnt bring back memories cos our own graduation took place in another century that I have forgotten what it was like....hahaha....ok.gtg...eat again what else ?
