11th August 2022Today is a special day as it is my first time attending our school's annual academic award ceremony. As you might have guessed, I am an extremely studious person and a nerd without glasses. I got second place in the final examination last year so I was able to skip school for the day and have fun in the school hall receiving awards.
Firstly, we went to register our names and they gave us little stickers with numbers on them. Then we sat down and started reading our History textbooks since exams were around the corner (we never fail to prove that we love studying). To be honest, there was light background music, mic testing, and lots of people chatting and moving about so I wasn't able to focus or memorize anything.
After what seemed like forever, the ceremony finally started when the VIPs' arrived. The ceremony started with long boring but meaningful speeches from our headmaster and so on.

The ceremony then took a break with a Chinese orchestral performance. The music was elegant and graceful.
Then, it was my turn to receive the awards. I am extremely lucky to be able to take a photo with my dad on stage.

The ceremony went on with singing and dancing performances and awards for all the students who have worked hard to achieve great results in their SPM and STPM. I was blown away by the achievements listed when announcing our model student. She had won multiple competitions and even had a Grade 8 in piano. I told myself that I am going to try my best and get the model student award someday.
There was also a photo booth so we took a pic there....

We also got interviewed briefly without notice... I was pretty nervous, my voice was slightly trembling.
The award ceremony was a memorable experience. I would like to thank all the teachers and students involved in the whole preparation of the ceremony, the decorations were gorgeous. I wish to maintain my good grades so that I am able to attend this ceremony in the future,
