FINALLY, My First Student Has Graduated!!!

Yesterday I attended the graduation ceremony at Gurney Hotel for the last time. It was a significant day not because it was my last time, but it was the fact that the first student I taught at KDU College has finally graduated! She was not only my first student, but the ONLY student I have when I start teaching in KDU! I still remember the first subject I taught was History of Architecture I. That time the school of design has just been established and there was not a single book available for the subject I was about to teach. I took the initiative to choose and buy a very thick book which has since becomes the key text for both History of Architecture I and II subjects.

Teaching only one student was no joke at all. Forget about group discussion. It was lectures most of the time. By the way, did I mention that Uchi was also very fat last time...Maybe because of that, she was quite slow and sleepy most of the time. Anyway, it was really an experience for me because I did learn a lot during those challenging times, not to mention brushing up my history of architecture. With her graduation, my career at KDU has come to a full circle (not sure whether this is the correct description or not). I'm grateful that I have the opportunity to teach a group of very talented students such as Uchi, Kai Shyuan, Yi-Wen, Eilis, Nerissa, Dolly, Mursyida and Adel. Did I miss out anyone? I hope that I've imparted useful knowledge to all of them and may success be with them in the future.
