IF we hold on together video: Download (46)

Yesterday, we had our farewell party. It was solely planned and organised by our year2s and year1s. During the first part, the juniors sang “If you hold on together” with james, yinwhee, hajar, fahmi, hendra and wani playing the kulintangs, and our new kulintang sectional leader- meiling conducting. Like what the Atika said, we joined this cca instead of choir for a reason. But i dont think it’s so horrible. At least it is audible to ears.Then, we were separated into four groups and played taboo. Taboo is a game whereby a group will send one representative. The representative will have some cards with words on it. Let me illustrate for you:

The representative will try ways for his members to guess the word “sarong” by talking and describing it out. However, the representative must not say the words like “malay, cloth, etc”

Then, we played “Monkey finding chairs”. It’s something like musical chair but another way. The “monkeys” will have to snatch an empty chair to sit down. The people who are playing are to ensure that they do not have empty chairs at their sides, if not, they will be forfeited. A direction (left or right) will be given, and everyone will have to move. After many many rounds, we had quite a number of people forfeited. So, it was time for punishment. Leong gave the instructions and the people will have to follow.

After the games, the rest of the yr3s came from their lessons. So, we started the “award presentation ceremony”. We were given 30 seconds to say our “thank-you” speech. But the people before me did not. When it was my turn, Miss Lim gave me an envelope. Inside, there’s a cd with my angklung sectional leader successor-Wani’s notes, certificate, our own cca collar badge.

So, i started my “30++sec” of speech, describing my feelings about being a SL, and the wonderful times i had with my year2s during sectional. This is quite an unprepared speech. I missed out alot of people. The “30 sec” time limit was driving me crazy! So, i’ve decided to pen down my actual speech here. (the speech will be published after this entry)

Then, we viewed a short video clip done by ili and hendra. Memories.. memories.. Started tearing. pictures of our performance at imm, grand copthrone hotel, lau pa sat, esplanade, syf.. And the most saddening part was the “people that we’ve lost“- In the memory of Fadinah.. I have been controlling tears from flowing down. At the moment, i feel like ~~scolding~~ ili and hendra. Of all, why this? why rub salt to our wounds? I was forcing myself to smile, but i failed. The most touching part was the picture taken with my sections. All my juniors with me holding a flower. The message there on the video was “the year2s will always support you“. The message was so strong as i feel that the “you” is refering to me.

Then, we had our food. Our utensils are nicely labelled.I love the food. got bee hoon, chicken, hotdogs, fishballs and eclair! While eating, this 2 girls were bullying me. my dear shir just went to Macau just today, and this two girls- sherlynn and edith act 亲密. feed each other, making me jealous. “Shir! must faster come back. See? they all so fast bully me le.”

It was soo sweet when 3 of the yr1s gave us biscuits. Although they dont know us, but they made this for us! That’s so sweet of them la. im so touched!I used back our orange ribbon we used during lau pat sat performance. 我想回到过去.
