ON A HAPPY DAE AT FASS DAY!
I was supposed to take my IPPT at 715 am this morning...but guess what? I woke up at 1 pm instead whahahahahahaha!!
Aiyah nmind la book again next week heh.
Anyway I went for FASS Day today at the invitation of the Deans Office, to help out with the parents' tour & sharing a bit of my own FASS experience in general. Met a lot of juniors as well.
Really enjoyed myself, and again, lotsa past memories flood me. Really honoured that the Deanery use me as 1 of the "show-case" graduates hahahah. I guess todae is just 1 of the little things that I can contribute back as an alumni (I m so not used to being called this term haha!), and I do hope to continue helping out the Arts Deanery in whatever way I can. Esp in terms of imparting career advice n mentorship programmes for current n future undergrads.
Hopefully long term wise, I can be able to inspire fellow Arts undergrads n encourage them to pursuit n fulfill their dreams.
Prof Straughan & Joanne also filled me with some great news that really made me quite excited!
Apparently this year they are making some changes to the Commencement ceremony. In the sense that President SR Nathan ll be coming for the 1st session I think... And they have drawn up this so-called C1 list of past student leaders who have done well in NUS..Prof Straughan and Joanne have submitted my name into the C1 list. Which means I might be able to receive my degree scroll from President Nathan himself on Commencement day. I was really delighted to hear that! And fingers crossed that I fulfill the criteria to be in that C1 list.
Obviously the downside is that I wont be going onstage with my Political Science peers to collect my degree scroll. But I can still be present during the PS Commencement ceremony, which really matters a lot to me. =) Wanna throw my mortar hat with all of them haha.
