The Conventional Commencement Ceremony.

We’ve got the valedictorian speech. We’ve got the name calling and systematic queuing for our scrolls. And we’ve got the award winners!

rebecOur valedictorian.

awardThat’s me!

Many people are curious what are those awards that I’ve won, here are the formal descriptions.

prizes

gold medal

  • Lee Kuan Yew Gold Medal: Best graduate throughout the course of study
  • Leslie Wong Memorial Medal: Best student awarded First Class Honours
  • Monetary Authority of Singapore Book Prize: Best student in BBA Hons exam
  • DaimlerChrysler Prize: Best two Honours graduates
  • Annie Tan Medal & Prize: Most Outstanding Female undergraduate.

The last medal is the one that I’m most proud of and thankful for! It’s an award given to recognize female students who not just do well academically but who are also bilingual and had contributed to the community.

I am bilingual and am proud of my heritage! HAHA! At least now, I have another skill/talent other than studying. -_-

I’m toying with the idea of bringing these gold medals to pawn shop for gold valuation. HAHA.
