Was checking my emails etc n saw this post in Econs Hons yahoogrp..
Hi everybody,
Having obtained my graduation gown (though with much difficulty and laughter) (due to size problems), it suddenly occurs to me that we have all graduated (yes, i know i am slow). Watching the commencement video of 2006, I cannot help but reflect on the times, both good and bad that we all have spent together, as economics majors. The times spent in the Honours room until the wee hours doing macro (almost want to strangle Basant), to the wonderful times playing badminton, shopping, hanging out, gossiping and bitching about the world are memorable times. 7th July will mark a special date, not just because it marks a new phase in our lives, but it would also mark the last time such a major gathering of econs cohort 2007. I hope that as people goes up the stage, we will cheer each other on as we collect our scrolls. Meanwhile I will look forward to seeing you guys on Commencement.
For those confused abt what commencement is all abt, u can look at the videos at http://www.nus.edu.sg/commencement/2006/webcast.htm for reference.
The one for Econs is under 10 july 2006 3pm.

tears were forming in my eyes when i read e msg..
cant believe that we are going to part our ways officially veri soon...
while e memories of hons yr is still rather vivid in my mind..
in 8 short months, my social circle expanded vastly, forging mani strong friendships i never imagined possible..
ive even spent more time with some of them in sch than with my family members during sem 2..
i cannot imagine how different will my hons life be w/o them..
w/o them i most prob will break down while doing e assgnments..
w/o them, im sure my hons yr will be a pathetic blank n not dotted with numerous wonderful memories..
w/o them i may not be able to complete e grueling and challenging hons yr..
im realli fortunate to have known them.. they have certainly helped me grow and become a stronger person...
at this juncture, i will like to say a big THANK YOU to all of them. realli treasure e friendship and there will be a corner in my heart dedicated to all of you..
"Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this school
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's our time to fly....
As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change, come whatever
We will still be, friends forever"
