seems like the best day of my uni life went by pretty good and pretty not good. when people say 戴方帽子, i'm sure it's not just a mere expression. but guess what? i took lots of photos but none of it with my mortar board. not very smart for a graduate i'd say.
my camera was really bad. the few pictures i took were too bright and thus, i gave up the thought of using my camera in the end. and also the people who offered to help take the pictures always had their hands full before i got my camera to them, so i was a bit paiseh to hang another gadget on their hands, what more a 3.2 megapixel camera which was only as good as my cybershot phone. and my phone actually produces better pictures than the camera. it might've been the setting though.
so i didn't get to take pictures with quite a number of the honours people. though we weren't exactly from the same batch, we did take a few mods together and i think they're great people. what's more, we're supposedly the same batch prior to uni. at least with the guys. haha...
the profs who went up the stage in their doctorate dresses made me feel like i was in hogwarts though prof shih was a mini-sized dumbledore. the pictures we took in the dresses minus the mortar board really made us look like wizards. and for some reason, when carmen went up the stage, she reminded me of hermoine.
and no, i am not a harry potter fan.
