CONVOCATION - Graduation

Imagine I am now at TCU. Names are called one by one. Finally my name is called and I walk myself to the Chancellor. The university president gladly give me my earned scroll. Presumably I am the only Malaysian who receive my scroll that day.

Humor?

1)I thought no one reads my blog. Someone asked me whether it was the correct date that I arrived at SAAS airport Oct 15th 1990 and my accident happened on Dec 2,1990. I have my International Passport which stamped arrival at SAAS 15 Oct 1990 , 29 May 1989 and a police report of the Dec 2,1990 accident.

2)Now that Chrysler has started to pay its loan to both the US and Ontario governments, the world auto industry is taking its feet again. I am sure Proton and Perodua will build better design and economical cars apart from having greener engines. Although I did not see Chevy Cruze at the 2010 KL Auto Show, I am sure Proton and Perodua can make as good cars as Chevys. Of course a poor farmer like me will still drive the low quality Perodua Kancil I bought in 2002.

3)Talking about cars I remember a teacher in primary school Mr Foo who owned a VW just like my father. Those days everyone who owned a VW would have boom boom engines(the noisy engine exhaust). Mr Foo would arrive at the school a few minutes before the bell rang, so when we heard the boom boom noise we knew Mr Foo was coming to school. My father's VW was producing a lesser exhaust sound.

4)I always regard May 29 as an important date. P Ramlee died May 29th 1973. Malaysia has proclaimed May 29 as Seniman Day to honor people like P Ramlee and his friends. Another figure that I like is A.R .Tompel. The movie "Ahmad Albab" which Tompel played an arrogant wealthy father gave me such a significant impact. A baby was born to a poor farmer who married the arrogant wealthy father's daughter but the baby never stop crying until that arrogant wealthy grandfather knocked on a door. Then the farmer was bestowed with a hidden treasure inside a cave.
