Attended To the Memorial Oration

This evening I attended to an important event. It's the memorial oration of late professor V. K. Samaranayake. He is the founder of University of Colombo School of Computing.

Even though I thought to attend it just because some of my friends asked me to join, after the ceremony I felt that it was worth attending. This year's oration was conducted by Prof. J.B Dissanayake and it was an interesting speech.

However I missed the best part. :) Just after the ceremony the organisers had prepared some refreshments for the attendees with some drinks and foods. Since there were lot of people including our university staff and delegates from outside, I felt a little bit shy at that time. So, after the oration I left without taking anything.

There's a quote of late Prof. Samaranayake which I really like. So, I end this note with it.

"Do not wait for opportunities. Seek them and perform."
