this is the last hour of 2005. ____________________________________
this year had been wonderful. the most beautiful and fantabulous experiences lies in this year. yet the most horrible ones existed as well.
this year had been way too fast, as i look back. the memories we had was beyond imagination, hardly comprehendable. i really treasure every single one of my friends who made a difference in my life. i treasure every moment i spend with all of you, and it will not leave me.
january and february, the days which we were all new to our secondary three lives, getting use to school and the different subjects was difficult at the start. chinese new year was a blast, where 6-1 had a gathering again. it was still and exciting road ahead of us, being half seniors and juniors, being crazy sec threes and hardoworking ones as well. really we didnt know what to expect. induction ceremony, the tough times i went through with shermaine. it was WORTHED me remembering. instructors, celebrating zhenluan's birthday. you wont imagine how close we got. it was the time where everyone was happy. and really happy.
march, the hawaii trip, and OAC 2005. when i grow up, i would remember that 2005 was the year that i first stepped into the US, hawaii. i've been there and i will not forget the times i spent with the choir people, and foo huiyi.
OAC 2005 definitely showed me what was friendship. i found the most touching experiences and worthy friends right there. the instructors of 2005, THANKYOU. sher, sining, malita, khong, mingjin, evelyn, zhenluan, cheryl yeo, dhilshad, malina, faizah, and everyone else. remember zhenluan's bday celebration? the void deck practices for our dance, and the 6days we had to go through together. that's what friends are for.
mavis tutorial, going to kovan together on tuesday evenings. bubble teas! yoshinoya, burger king! mad bunch of tuition friends, and the fun we had suanning and laughing with each other.
there was no midyears, resulting in us getting abit slack, but still! june was not a wasted month.
AEIQ - quotient without remainder. it was short, 2 days. i cant say i found true friendships within that two days but seriously, it was memorable and getting to know more people was really good. this student leader convention didnt engrave everlasting friendships, but a short and simple experience with all whom i met. it was simply, fun. all the pasar malam working, the dance practising, the love, me song, the AEIQ candles in the night, which was really touching a that point of time. then cat high invest, which made me realise and learn from various incidents. the people there were really mad, and it was just, fun. sher enjoyed herself, i guess that's one of my greatest relief. we were happy to be able to go through so much, really.
after the june holidays things got abit more uptight. more tests and exmas coming up, which drove us into the hardworking mode to prepare ourselves for the end year examinations. which brings me to the times jsg spent together studying at my house. there were marathons, of twelve hours, and we even enjoyed studying together. motivations really help. yuan, clara. vicki, xiner. thanks! amazing how primary school friends arrvied here together.
this year was really a time i experienced the hardworking feeling. i worked hard, but not hard enough. i need to improve. next year, i would get myself ready for more challenges, and distractions. well i cant believe how i sat there for twelve hours trying to do biology and amaths and i did it. the achievements were great.
involvement in the prefectorial board made me more matured too. i learnt from experiences and although it was a tough time, i made it through the year. im sure alot of you did too. although there were problems, but we're still a big family after all. think of how we started. those memories would stay there forever, and since there's half an hour left to a new year, this half an hour would be good to forget all and everything bad that happened. this would not go on forever, so i would choose to cherish what i have now.
my dear classmates i havent forgotten you. this year was great with you. how rebellious could we get, how suck up could we get, and how unglam could we get. but how bonded we actually were! the intellectual talks, the unglam behaviours, the moaning and groaning, and the new words we came up with, the going-to-breeks after school, and all we spent together. my crazy sitting partner SHEENA BENEDICT ONG. she's really someone you cant do without. cos she just rocks in trigo. and she rocks in giving us the CONKY look. sheena you rock.
not forgetting clara lock, yingwai, diana, liane, jazzy, huiyun, gwen, huda, fairuz, janine and ALL. thanks!
novemeber and december was a relief. it was really enjoy-myself-time. however, i could not get over the barrier of HOMEWORK the school provided us with.
I'M GIFTED, SO ARE YOU. this program has taught me how to be a better person. the appreciate your loved ones especially your parents, to appreciate life, to set goals and achieve them, to motivate oneself. all the studying techniques, all the real life stories by gary, danny and amin. the wonderful times where they talked for exactly eleven hours. thanks for going through this with us, and nurturing us into a better person. im sure everyone woke up from their dream and started to be motivated. and im glad they are.
my birthday, i still loved the surprise. thanks to elvis naima yumin manel!
the hongkong trip. i enjoyed myself THOROUGHLY and ALOT ALOT while i know some dont agree with me about hk being interesting, i still insist on my stand. i love hongkong.
the LEADERSHIP CAMP by CAMP HA, 27 and 28 december. im sure everyone wouldnt forget the chickens flying around the beach, the cold and chilling night where the instructors were bbq-ing away, the ammaeypadepadejiggereBAH!! santre, and the other crazy groups. the instructors, rudi, joyce, tim, chong and germin. the crazy part about chong, the how-zhenluan-arica-yusin-dhilshad-got-their-cough part, and the embarrassing moments of forfeits.
my relationship with people improved alot, on the whole. with my parents, the instructors, my classmates, jsg, and sophia-natasha-leeza gang. i will work hard next year (and sheena make sure you do) and i will do whatever it takes to get into vjc.
it's 5 minutes to 2006, and i took 55 min to blog this. sorry for the long entry and i hope everyone have a great 2006, forget all the pain and horrid experience you had, cos it's OVER and take the great memories along with you down the road. take good care of yourselves and dont fall sick so easily. i remember, cherish and love ALL OF YOU.
