Busy bee

I haven't updated the blog for a while. Mainly because of the excessive amount of workload this month. While feeling x'mas passed not long ago, easter is ahead soon. Time flies so quickly that it's beyond description. 

It was shrove tuesday few days ago :) Anyone made any pancake at home? I always think shrove tuesday is another classic example of valentine's day- It has been commercialised by the market. So people buy more flowers; chocolates; flour. but I guess....'Pancake day' is more like a tradition. Still remember 3 years ago, I was an alevel student at Monkton, making pancakes with clarendon girls at my houseparent's kitchen. Although I don't know there is such thing as pancake day before I came to England five years ago, it has become like something that 'must-do' once every year.

By the way, I can feel summer is coming to town. So excited! Can't wait to the day when I am wearing my graduation robe and hat. It is the day I have been looking forward to. Recently, I have heard some people around saying there is no point attending the ceremony- I strongly disagree with this. Because for me, ceremony is a RITUAL or TRADITION that you will go through to PROVE YOUR ABILITY TO COMPLETE AN UNIVERSITY LEVEL DEGREE. It is a compliment and a honor witnessed by your lovely families and friends. Especially to yourself- three years of hardwork won't go into waste. I bet I will cry that day...ha. I despise those who think they are intelligent and aren't willing to put any effort/ responsibility on their work. So...maybe this is why they think ceremony isn't necessary, because there is nothing on them worth celebrating.

XL size strawberries always go well with pancakes :)
