Convocation – B. Sc. Engineering, University of Moratuwa

We (2004 batch) had our convocation on 25th June 2009. Yes it’s a day to remember but I feel it as the last get together of our batch. Anyway it was a nice and bit tough experience :). Bad thing we couldn’t get all our people at least for a one last pic because they were here and there busy taking their graduation pics.

Finally….we are graduates. The essence of 17 yrs education. I am really thankful to my dear parents who brought me up here, from the very first day of my school life. I’m sure they were so happy to witness that moment. Also, to Saliya who encouraged me through out my university life.

Isuru (our field top) got the gold medal which was awarded for the highest GPA.  Well….he is bit worried coz he has to keep aside a piece of gold 🙂 – just kidding.Congratulations friend. Well done.

CSE Batch 04 – Going down

According to the tradition of Dept. of Computer Science & Engineering, UOM we organized a treat for the staff after graduating. I’d prefer to call it as our Goingdown since it was the last time we(our batch) got together officially. So it was much like a goingdown. Almost everyone from our batch, couple of juniors and CSE staff were there to share the moment and it was a great pleasure to see all our mates after couple of months.

They were not changed a bit 🙂

One of the videos we played there, showing the footprints, goes here. Cheers 04, The batch of love and unity.

Hit the Grounds – 2008

Hit the ground is an annual cricket tournament organized by the CSE department of University of Moratuwa. Cricket matches are scheduled among the students and software companies. I got the chance to play for 04 batch in two consecutive years (2006 and 2007).

This time there was not a batch 04 team because all played for their own companies. So I played for WSO2. The unbelievable thing is we got the championship (WSO2 had never been selected even for quarter finals before:)). It was a nice experience to be in a winning team.
