Heyhey people!

Seeing that this class blog is rather stagnant for a week just like mine, I shall attempt to blog something here! (which i havent done for a long time im sorry =/) anywayy, im putting up the blog post that i wrote on 24/10/07, right after classroom cleaning. It was written for 409 obviously, and it's the reason why I made my blog public, after almost one whole year.

Yes, cause I want you guys to read it. So here's it again, for those who've already read it, im sorry to waste your time! haha (:
ps. i hope it's not too emo! the real goodbye post has yet to come.
-------------------------------------------------
Mmhmms, hello world for im gonna make this public for once (:

Alright maybe I shouldnt start this post with that. I really want to make this a good one, but im kinda sick and tired now so i shall make it simple. The real goodbye and thankyous shall wait.

So we finally watched mr teo's wedding proposal video after classroom cleaning (stace and husena had to go look for him walao haha). Yupp, no comments about it except the background music was really nice and it was...romantic and touching (despite the $1 roses -.-)

Mmm we had to rub off everything on our black board, and did i say it was the most amazing board ever? We had like 35 squares, each belonging to one of us in register order. I think many people contributed to the drawings on the board, which kind of represented each of us. Then we had this bottom right hand corner specially for the weekly class jokes, which were mostly sick if you ask me. Haha, siyi was the one who started the whole black board idea i think, thank you big hair :D

Mine was a fish picture, you should know why by now. Then there was "i love lays sour n cream" which is obviously wrong but funny, just like me. And stupid kevy had wrote this "sex bomb sex bomb" lyrics all over cause she was just being randomly crazy. Yeah okay digression.

Then classroom deco, which follows the theme "singing in the rain". We tried to take down all the raindrops on the window panes, it was tough job. Cant seem to get them off completely, or maybe I didnt even want to in the first place. Sal and Siyi did the whole cleaning of black board thing, while more and more people just gathered around at the back of the classroom, watching each and every square disappear, without even a picture to remember how crazy we once were, how we all had a different yet special entity within this amazing class itself.

It's been a year studying in this classroom, been 2 years I have known every one of the niners. and I dont know how long it will be to remember you guys, or to forget some of you.

So i was walking around, and lena looked like she was really gonna cry and so i sat beside her. We stared at the black board. Then I thought of us. How Lena and I began getting really close through the times when i really needed someone to talk to, and she was the one who gave me strength, trust and care. Unreserved. And I will always remember that.

Then I see xinying, then I think of yinfei, sal and maybe jnanee. How we were all a part of 207'05 but we forgot about it all too fast. It was a good and less painful thing to do, because that class, I wouldnt say love at all. But I am grateful for that class, because it made me treasure 309 and 409 more. It made me grow, really really. As a person. Throughout these 4 years, it has certainly been most memorable yet painful to think of those days in sec 1 and 2, but i thank you for the memories, even though they werent so good.

Then alina joined me and sat beside me on the tables for a while. Just a while, and I thought of last year when we were close, but just for a while too. Haha would you kill me if i mention all these stuff, how she'd cried so badly beside me watching 'I not stupid" and got me crying too, although i was planning to comfort her. How she asked me to go study with her but I always rejected last minute cause I was being too petty. And how slowly we become who we are now. But it's all good, because while you sit with me, and we look at the things we share disappear together, I thank God for having you in my life, before it taught everyone to be more complicated and reserved.

Then there was szeyen, who came around and started hugging everyone. She didnt reach me though, but I know what she was trying to do. We wanted to thank every one, for sharing these 2 years together, for growing up together and despite the sad/happy times, thanks for sharing with me, even though you didnt make the choice to. And there are of course, a few, just a few i wont be greedy, whom we want to keep in our lives just a while longer, as long as we can actually.

Then there was arias, who made me hold some weird beads for her while she wandered off somewhere. So i thought of last year, how i always called her cat and said "fish loves cat, we will never be enemies for real" but we kind of did. So the rest of the year was spent like that between us, but no one knew how happy I was to have received her email on the first day this year. It's the best new year present ever. And now we've become closer, thank you arias for forgiving and forgetting, for confiding in me and trusting me, for helping me and cheering me up when i was sad over chem results. I appreciated every bit of it. Thank you cat :D

There are still many people. Like lydia, who was going around throwing rubbish. And I would walk up to her and tease her like I always do, but when I told her I love her very very much, she'd always know I mean it more than anything else I've ever said to her.

Then there is latha. the awesomest class chair and friend ever, who will care at the most difficult times. Cows ftw. Then noisy and crazy people like wanqi and val, whom Im not really close to but they do make a difference in the class, in our lives.

Dont you understand, besides the times we actually bitched about each other, had internal rivalry, and fell into different cliques, we are one big family. this is 409 and im proud to say im a niner. Know when we always say we know teachers and other classes have been saying how 409 is so not disciplined and crazy, but that look on our faces tells me, you're proud to be one of us still. And it's always the right and wrong people you meet in the stages of growing up that teach you about life, about giving up and letting go. About loving with your heart and caring truthfully for someone. About knowing what you really want, who you really are and who will stick with you long long time.

Even if there were the bad times, when some ppl make you sadder than never before, you thank them. Without them, you most probably wouldnt be who you are today. We learn from each other, through all the setbacks we face tgr, or the problems we actually give each other. So here's a sincere thank you. For all the love, all the criticisms, all the judgements, all the forsaking and parting. Because they made a difference in how i have become today, and im proud to say, i love raffles. I love rgs. Nevermind the education system we always grumble about, nevermind the failures in tests we always have, nevermind those rumours around that only we know deeply that they hurt us big time, nevermind the late nights we had to endure for the neverending pts and work.

Nevermind everything else, because we took so much out of it all. i didnt live up to expectations, but im glad ive perservered and stayed on this track to the best i can. and for the friends ive made, who make me smile and who makes up almost my whole world. to those who hated or still hates me, thank you. it's through you that i got to know who are my real friends, and it's you who tells me there is no perfect person. you cant be liked by everyone, and who you really are actually depends on how you present yourself, not just what you always tell yourself you are.

so i shall end it here, and write a better post next time. i miss the black board, the dirty old jokes. the class playlist, our raindops and umbrellas. and in the end, it's every one of you. not just in 409, but in the whole level. it's 4 years, 4 years in our adolescent years. it's not really that short, to have the same faces changing with you, and not really that long, to really give us a second chance to start over and be a better person. so no time for regrets, and the time goes on. but just for now,

if i could choose again, i say raffles, definitely.
