The graduation ceremony of 2006 started today. I was asked by Arata to take photos of her and her parents. Because her timetable is the earliest one (9:00am), I had to drag myself out of bed very early this morning.
This is my first time been to a Durham graduation ceremony, didn’t go in my first year. It’s kind of like matriculation as I remember. Students need to wear gown and they have different gown for different degrees and different department. For example this purple one is for science student and this pure white one is for non-science ones. Also I went to the law department ceremony this afternoon (students got different timetable according to their department) to congratulate my other friend Bonnie, it seems they have got a special one for law department. I was going to go inside the cathedral and see people shake hand with Bill Bryson (although it’s not that exciting to watch) because my friend got me a ticket, but I went too late and miss entering time. Never Mind, I will be the one officially shaking his hand next year.
Photos are uploaded to Flickr, welcome to have a look. I will go again on Friday to attend other friends’ ceremony and take more photos.
Finally, congratulation to all my friends who are graduating this year! All the best to life in future :)
