HO Farewell....
Friday, December 02, 2005
I will not blog about grad nite, because I feel it's nothing compared to HO's farewell. There was no manner of a proper good-bye at all, only mad prancing about in the center of the ballroom and the awarding of a bunch of awards which included one for nice buttocks. But thanks to Bryan, Natalia, Yong Long, Shupomtop, LimZY, Sheryl, Yao Peng and Sok Shin (littlebean) for taking photos with mi.Yesterday was HO Farewell...and it was all I could do do keep from cracking up. Reached Aljunied MRT early, with my two big bags....Ningxi was already there, she thought I was moving house....then the alumni seniors turned up, talked to them alot. Sec 2s appeared to fetch us to Pebble Bay condo, rushed for bus and sat there almost falling asleep till I finally caught sight of the pebble bay sign and roused myself. Got off, went into the condo....sec 2s were "escorting" sec 4s into the function room, but apparently my arms were full....nevermind that part, it's painful.Got into the room, thank you for the welcome juniors, and sat down....watched Yu Lan and Jiemin (oyster) talk funnily, then they served us dinner....that part is painful too. And then there was a long gap, and then presentation of prizes....I got a card each from Liting and Yan Ru, a small bag of sweets from Yining which also contained a card, a flying pig from Sok Shin, a, erm, toilet plunger, a black jacket, and most important of all, a small folder of cards from each member of my dear Octave....but please, this part is very painful too. But thank you for all the presents juniors....I will keep them for life, except perhaps your sweets Yining, sorry....And then came the performance by the sec 2s....I didn't exactly understand what was happening but I still enjoyed it....it was very funni, and more importantly, it's by HO juniors....and then all HO juniors came together and sang a song for sec 4s...Say Goodbye....it was very difficult to keep my eyes dry....and very painful listening to the song....my heart refuses to accept I must say goodbye. Yet still, I always knew I can't stay forever in AHS HO. True love never dies....can I truly believe that?And all too soon, it was time to go....I gave all my presents to Octave juniors, hopefully you will all feel the care that goes with them....and I'm sorry if they're plain....Qinqin's and Mian Mian's presents too....and then, before I could, they were talking about lorry. So....I take my bag and walk out....what else is there to it? And then, I get lost....so I retrace back to the function room. Remaining humans -- Shihui Keli YuLan Jiemin Sok Shin Elisha....talked to them awhile....then we left together....all of them happily talking and mi behind, kicking stones. The rest of the night is pure pain, but thank you Elisha and Qinqin for trying to cheer mi up, and Qin and Mian hope you like the presents. And....that's how it went...."sometimes goodbye though it hurts in your heart is the only way for destiny"....this statement refuses to stop coursing through my mind.....but at the same time, I try to believe the last sentence of that song. It was a good farewell, and thank you for organising it juniors....no one comes to my blog, so I don't think alot of you will read this before other posts overlap it, but I just want to say all of you have a place in my repositoire of memories that I shall keep as long as I live, in this life and the next....and I ask, finally not that you all remember mi, but that all of you keep the HO bond as strong as possible.....friendships forged this way must not be broken easily....and I wish all of you the best of luck for all your future endeavours!*tries to be strong....* thank you Elisha
