...And after 3 years, I've now graduated from UBD :)
Since usually not everyone couldn't join the convocation (because it's usually held around September and most of us would be off to our partner medical schools already), we had our graduation night in July!
We put alot of effort into preparing it! We even had our graduation photoshoot done by

We really love her work and decided to contact her for our photoshoot! I love all the shots!
Love all the details~
Basically, we had a formal theme, with our white coats and all & a red x white x blue casual theme..
Jane also took individual shots for the formal theme :)
We also took group photos depending on the universities/countries we're going.
#TeamIreland!
I'm happy that all the pictures turned out so pretty! I think Ireland's ones are the prettiest :p hehehe ♥♥♥
We then changed to our casual outfits
♥ My Medic8ion girls ♥
Don't you just love the lighting?? Perfect timing!!
My Medic8ion family that helped me survive through UBD days!
I'm also grateful to have meet all these wonderful people and made it through Class of 2015. You guys are the best :D
Jane was so kind and thoughtful to prepare our individual shots and a copy of group photo for each of us!
Cohort 8 Graduation Dinner:
I think my cohort is the first one who organised it in PAPRSB itself :D because the main building was just ready last year..so it's just the perfect venue for us!!
We are also trying to save money because we didn't want our guests to pay for anything so each of us contributed to the budget :)
My invitation card:
Everyone was allocated different tasks and I was under backdrop / Team Decorations!
So excited because I'm very into DIY crafts and art :3
Basically, 2 weeks before the event, we started brainstorming all the decorations. We were allocated $100 for it but decided to go with DIY to save money!!
Floral & fauna theme with 50 shades of blue dress code xD hahaha
Our centrepiece on the dinner table:
Our memory lane, with all our pictures and motivational quotes:
Super super proud of our "8". I got this idea from Pinterest :p but with different flowers and colours. Can't believe we made this!! Although we used up quite some paper and crepe paper..but I really love the end result!
Did out "Co" using coffee-dipped paper :D
Worked on the "Welcome" sign super late..you can see the black background looked patchy :\ but I'm happy it looked neat...? Hahaha
Cheers to the Deco Team!! Best team ever :D
We also ordered our Cohort shirt! FINALLY! After 3 years!
With our names and something that could represent us!
#dreamer
Zaf was so thoughtful to prepare appreciation gifts for all the volunteers who helped us with our event!
I didn't have the picture of our cake but it was quite disappointing because the fondant is too sweet T_____T and the cake itself was rather dry..
Nevertheless, kudos to the cake team for putting in alot of effort for sourcing different types of cakes for us to vote!
Had to go back IHS the next day to clean up the mess. The Sellotape that we used actually left a sticky trail on the floor!! D: We had to use oil and sponge scrubs to clean it...hahahah
Wouldn't have survived my UBD years without them (:
Pillars of my life ♥
I'm now starting a new phase of my life, in my partner medical school.
It's tough but I feel greatful to have come up till this far.
Stay positive!! Fighting!
