Just some words from the big fellow..
Hey fellas.. After a long time.. I finally found the way to get into the class blog!.. Haha.. Okay.. I got stuff to tell you all.. A lot of things.. So much so that.. I dunno where to start.. But I'll try ok?..
I'll start by these.. Remember?.. Remember the first time all of us met?.. When everyone was a stranger?.. When maybe only one or two knew each other?.. When we first met.. Most of us held blank faces.. Unsure of what to do.. What we should do.. Unsure of how to react to one another.. We were like empty bottles searching for something amongst the crowd.. Blank souls waiting to be written with fire of life..
Then.. Remember?.. Remember Orientation?.. When everyone worked through team games.. Worked to keep each other through?.. Worked and strive to shine out among others.. When we finally started talking to each other.. When roads and path of different people finally crossed.. When the 'me' finally became 'us'..
Remember?.. When Wilson was transferred to a different class.. How we all wrote petition for him to stay with us?.. For all of us to remain as a whole.. A one class.. Unbroken and bonded..
And remember?.. All the birthdays celebrations?.. All the outings?.. All the events that took place in the past 2 years.. All the fun we shared.. The laughter we had.. The lame things we did.. The lessons we shared together.. The time in LT4.. In the classrooms.. Scoldings we bore together.. Efforts we put together.. Motivation we provided to each other.. Compassion that we show to everyone.. And most importantly.. The love we shared together as a class.. The love for fun, merriment and the love of simply being together as a whole class..
Remember all this.. For what its worth.. It is the class that kept me going on these 2 years.. The encouragement that everyone gave.. The motivation to keep going despite all the failures that I have made.. Everyone of you made that whole difference in my life.. As I told Jack the last time.. He was the one main reason why I stayed in NY after the release of 'O' levels result.. The class made up the other part of the reason why I stayed..
To the guys.. Remember all the stupid things we did.. The times we shared in LAN.. The times we shared in playing games.. Playing basketball.. Playing soccer.. The times we yelled at each other for nothing.. Scolded others for the mere fun of it.. The times we spent sleeping in LTs.. Everything big or small that we did..
To the girls.. Remember all the times you all shared eating in the canteen during breaks.. All the gossips you all talked about during the breaks in between PE and lessons.. The times you all spent sitting around.. Just talking.. Every moment of your lives in NY..
To the class.. Remember this spirit.. Remember all the things that you have done.. Remember all the things we shared together.. All the times we shared together.. They are the memories which will last.. Everything that we do.. It was not me or Jack that made a difference in 0621.. It was all of you.. We were all the different mosaics that made up the whole picture.. The beautiful picture that 0621 has painted..
And now.. Chapter 1 of the story has closed.. With the passing of our 2 years in NY.. And Chapter 2 remains blanks.. For us to write our new story.. To carry on our legacy.. SO.. GUYS AND GIRLS.. ARE YOU ALL READY?..
To the guys.. COME ON.. WE ARE GG TO BE BOTAK.. For those who are feeling sad.. Dont.. We are transiting from boys to man.. (i hope).. Its just a short 2 years.. During this 2 years.. We will stick together.. Got any prob.. We got lao da to settle it for you.. Plus.. Your welfare rep here isn't for nothing.. Got prob.. Come find me.. I will settle for you.. And oh yeah.. Jack is so free.. Im sure he will be able to help.. Right jack?.. Haha.. I sure hope to see everyone w/o the hair.. Its gonna be a funny scene.. Haha.. On the more serious tone.. WE WILL SURVIVE THE NS.. Like I said.. STICK TOGETHER.. WE GOT ALL THAT CLASS/TEAM SPIRIT.. NOT PUTTING IT TO USE IS A WASTE..
To the girls.. I bet most of you are working or kind of working.. Whatever it is.. Gain as much experience as you can from it.. Its not easy to gain experience nowadays.. Whichever chance you all have.. Grab at it.. There's no such thing as a bad job.. Just that you have not found the right one.. Be patient.. More importantly.. Strive for the best in whichever job you are at.. You attitude determines everything.. If you think the job is terrible.. So will your mood.. Learn to look openly.. Im sure all of you will be able to find a job you all are happy with.. So.. Have fun.. And take care..
Right people.. I guess thats about what I wanna say.. Before I go into army and forget about this speech.. And lack the time to use a comp.. Haha.. Meanwhile.. All of you people take good care of yourself.. Got people bully you.. Tell me.. I will beat them up.. XP.. Joking la.. Stay cheerful and lively always..
With hugs and grins..
