What a day and what a picture here of graduates convocation. They ended their course of pursuit for that degree paper and begin another course of career for wages, fame, cause, politics and so forth. An interesting article in the Straits Times paper today that most graduates in Singapore do not contribute to their Alumni for they do not identify with it... thus not a emotional bond as yet. Nonetheless, what are these bear graduates for ? Whatever stuff these human graduates have with their Alma Mater is for their personal soul to sort out. These cutie 10cm tall bear are meant as a add-on gift with the certificate which some training institutes, learning centre, school are giving away to their students who passed out from their school. A symbolic act that you have muddle through their courses with your eyes closed like these bears - they are teasing you that you have done it.
A graduate comes to me and I sell her one at S$3.00/each. The school ordered 500 pieces and they paid me in a cheque of S$1000/nett. Simple mathematics, right? graduate.
