Graduation

I just had my Leavers' Ceremony & 4L class bbq. Also, helping out, probably for one of the last times in school as a student, in the school's open house. For me, this week has marked the end of my Marist journey.

I'll cut to the chase. Leavers' Ceremony was about taking photos. Enjoying yourself with the teachers. Being there in school. Taking in the atmosphere. For that One. Last. Time.
It was somehow... nice to be back in school. The school that groomed me to be the person i am today. Good? Bad? I'm sure its the former.

I went out for steamboat with 2C afterward. It was, i am sure, our last dinner together in our school uniforms. It was great fun. Nothing mattered anymore. We didn't have to talk about our 'O' Levels. We just enjoyed ourselves. Enjoyed each others' company. The feeling of it was just great.

In addition to that, the very next day was my graduating class' BBQ. It was a blast! We were really as a class then. It didn't feel divided. well, most of it anyways. haha. I think everyone enjoyed themselves too. Ms Koh, Ms Lee and Mr Lim came as well. I can't emphasize enough how fantastic it was. The pictures are on facebook. they'll say everything for me. We were all smiles. I thought i was never going to miss this class. I was wrong. I love it.

And today, was the open house. I helped out at Ms Koh's request. I didn't feel as much 'involved'. The new ICT programs were something i was totally unfamiliar with. I guess its a sign that its time to move on, and i have no idea whats in store.

Its now the curtain call. I'm graduated. I'm no longer part of the school. After a whole decade. I have mixed feelings about it. And now, the holidays ahead seem kind of empty. I dont know what to do. The previous year, i had events. camps. Outward Bound. Bintan. Confirmation. now.. its kinda just a blank piece paper waiting for me to write. Right now, I'm craving for some company. Some people on msn just really didn't help. Listening to Taylor Swift as well. Her platinum album is really good! haha. okay okay won't digress. (Listen to Forever & Always Piano Version) :P

To add on to the open house and my graduation, i watch as parents and pri 6 students explore the school. I knew, to a few lucky ones, they're gonna make it big in this school. And when i mean big, i mean that they're gonna make wonderful friends. expose themselves to various aspects of life. Root themselves in the right values. Discover themselves, and excel in what they never thought they could do. With the help of the perfect teachers here.

Just like i have myself. Right here, in Maris Stella High School.
