felt super emo today. haha:D i think everyone will be. i mean i know some pple will say it's stupid to feel so emo, cos we will be seeing each other again (at least most of us) nxt year. but i still feel that it's quite sad that we are leaving rgs alr. after all, the environment will change, people will change.
i think im very contradictory. cos in the past years' farewell assembly, everytime we say bye bye to the sec 4s, i will be like "is my turn going to come soon?" there's this feeling of like "hey i cant wait to graduate and move on to rj and grow up". but now im like "noooooo, im growing up too fast. i dun want to move on so quickly and leave all the caring tchers and all the nitty gritty things of rgs behind". this entire year i haf been counting all the last things i will do in rgs, like my last swim carn, my last racial harmony day, my last eya, my last fried food day... there's juz too many!!! haha:D i still rmb last wk when we had our last fried food day, everybody was insisting that we should buy all the various fried food from the diff stalls and eat them for the last time in our rgs lives. there's juz so many things i cant bear to leave behind.
it's funny how sometimes u only learn how to notice and cherish things when u are about to lose them. it always happens to me. too many times. i only realise how impt some things are to me juz when im about to leave them behind. sad rite? i shud improve on this weakness of mine. muz learn to live everyday as if it's my last and cherish everything and everyone while i still haf the chance(: a couple of days ago, anzie was telling me "hey did u ever notice this thing along the corridor and that tile at the foyer" and stuff like that. i was surprised throughout all my 4 years in rgs, i nvr ever notice these little things that i pass by everyday. it's only when im about to leave that i realised how beautiful and unique these things are.
oh and another thing that makes the day even more emo for me: saying goodbye to mrs tan. we had this surprise farewell concert for her today(: i think our school's v/principals and teachers and students are all very sweet. the whole school put in a 110% effort into making mrs tan's last day in rgs a very memorable one. and mrs tan is one of the best principals ever!! im so glad she din leave last yr like she was supposed to at first. i hope she will nvr ever forget us!! :D the whole school showered her with well wishes, gifts, tokens today(: while listening to her make her last speech, i almost felt like crying kaes. but i din la, must control(: i was telling myself if mrs tan was touched to tears then i will cry too. haha, but she din (at least i think she din watching her frm far far away), so i din too(:
thank you to all the teachers, principals, non teaching staff, canteen vendors, greenman, security guards, gardener for making my 4 years in rgs such a comfortable and memorable one! thank you principals for always taking care of our welfare and bringing the school to greater heights! thank you teachers for showering us with tender loving care and concern, despite the many times that we made u angry and disappointed. thank you for putting up with all our nonsense and imparting to us all the useful knowledge that will carry us very far in our future endeavours. thank you non teaching staff for always lending us a helping hand. thank you canteen vendors for whipping up such delicious cuisines to fill our empty stomachs. thank you greenman for maintaining a clean and conducive environment for us to study in. thank you security guards for ensuring that we will definitely feel safe and sound while in the school compounds. thank you gardener for keeping our school clean and green!! without every single one of u i think i would nvr ever enjoy coming to school(:
