There's so many people that I would like to thank, but here are a few special group/specific people that I wanna thank for shaping me into a better human this year.
Council family
Council has been the greatest part of my 4 years journey in WRS. Without council, I wouldn't be able to be who I am today (i'm serious) Before I joined council, I was a lazy (still lazy, but better), disrespectful, extremely bad-tempered and hot-headed girl. Yes, I was that bad. And I'm absolutely thankful for the seniors and teachers that accepted me when I was in secondary 1 though I had a very messy hair and folded short socks and extremely ugly folded culottes + bad attitude.
In council, the most important people are definitely my Sec 4 councillors and excos. We have been through so many ups and downs! From our first ever Sec 2 mass dance on TASAD (i watched the video again and laughed like mad btw) to our first ever event planned which was the Sec 1 Orientation to so much more like the Sec 2 camp, RHD, NDP and TASAD etc. We're an amazing batch of leaders and I feel so glad to be able to walk through this journey with you guys. Everyone of you have motivated me to work a little harder for the council family. Having to lead our fellow friends and juniors isn't a simple task and having you guys with me really makes everything so much more easier and worthwhile. I love you all so much thank you for everything, really. YOU GUYS ARE AMAZEBALLS.
Here's a mega ass thank you to Mdm Rehana and Ms Zaliza (who would probably not be able to see this) for guiding me throughout this 2-3years. Thank you Mdm Rehana for the ever encouraging words and hugs (HER HUGS ARE DA BEST NO DOUBTTTTT) and thank you Ms Zaliza for guiding OCIP'12 Drama team and being such a flexible and caring mentor to us. You 2 are such great teachers and teachers like you are why I'm so inspired to join the teaching career.

Next up, I wanna thank my great great GREAT mentor Izzan who was there to give me truckloads of good advice and always being a great listening ear (even to stuffs that isn't related to council) I'm glad that I was of little help to your current happiness and I hope this happiness stays with you for a really long time because you fought and struggled a long way to get to whr you are today so all the best to ya heheh!
BIG HELLO TO MY FISHBALL FACE JOJO!!!!!!! Hi Jolene I just realised we do not have a decent picture together that isn't a polaroid..... This is so sad omg HAHHA!! Anyway, there's so many things I wanna thank you for but most importantly, I want to thank you for answering my phone call last year and having the 3h long phone call with me. We literally went from DISLIKE DISLIKE DEEEESSSSLIKKKKEEE to I love you I miss you jojo AHAHAHA damn it I miss you a lot!!!!! Remember those times when we gossiped?? YA those were my favourite times with ya and once again I wanna thank you for the morning of our Chemistry paper! Thank you for giving up your beauty sleep to teach me chem though I was late and I'm still uber sorry about it............. But you know, I'll always love you despite what even when you cut your hair short and look like powerpuff girl or become rounder and have fishball face I WILLLLL ALWAYS LARRRVEEE YOU <3
Guzheng ensemble
To my guzheng mates and juniors from SYF'13, thank you for all the patience and hard work during the 6-8months of preparation! Though during the practice sessions everything was tough and tiring, we managed to pull through and achieve a certificate of distinction + a chance to perform at expo! I'm pretty sure none of this came by easily and I'm hope this spirit continues to stay on even after the seniors have graduated or even get passed down to the next few batches!
Vivian, YiHuan, Xinyi, Laurene, Jin Wen, Zi Yu, Sin Yi, Sharon, Jia Jie, Doreen, Mun Foong, me, Jia Wen and Chengyang.
To my beloved Sec 4s..............................................................
Thank you for the amazing 4 years of experience in guzheng!!!! Most of us came in with zero knowledge about music and I'm glad we've graduated AT LEAST knowing how to play some cny songs hehe! Remember all the 财神到,拜年歌,迎春花 etc ok!! Those are my favourite memories of guzheng hehe all the crazily huge body and hand movements that we need to make and also not forgetting 10 repetitive times of 钩砣摩托 (???), 八度,点指 and finally our most hated..... 摇指!!!!! Remember how we would bite our teeth and hold our right arms with our left hand, thinking it would help to ease the pain and ache heheheh. OH AND OUR MOUTH EXERCISE to help us smile better before performances!!!!! I will always remember leading you guys in that stupid exercise I've learnt from literature lessons which helped very minimal in smiling better because most of us will end up opening our mouths instead of smiling HAHAH. I suppose we're the only batch of guzheng students that has so much power and energy even after a long day of practice. Long hours of practice was made fun because we were able to motivate each other and I remembered how we would always look forward to lunch and water breaks during holiday practices!
Speaking of which...... We have the craziest water breaks ever!! In the short 5-15mins of water breaks we can either catch a short nap/gossip/pee/drink a lot of water/laugh like mad/PRACTICE IN THE AIR! damn I miss you girls (including chengyang) so much I really hope I'll be able to see y'all in the near future love you girls (excluding chengyang heeehee) <3
3E1 Speranza/ 4E1 Diamonds
4-1 AH LEH LEH, AH LEH LEH CHIKA BOOM AH! OH 4-1 OH DIAMONDS OH 4-1 AH!
To my beloved Diamonds, I love and thank you all so much!!!!! I'm beyond happy to be in this class of 44 people; though we're made up so many different characters and personalities, we managed to pull through many different challenges as one. I remembered looking at the 3-1 class list and thinking to myself "oh shit... what kind of class combination is this! I don't even know half of the names I'm seeing here!!! shit la...."
And right now I've graduated and all I'm thinking to myself is "greatest class combi ever!!!!"
Though we're ranked 4th among all the 4 express classes, we proved ourselves otherwise. The students from our class were more than just based on academic excellence; we were able to prove ourselves in other different areas such as leadership abilities, talent in both athletic and arts section and many more!! It's all these differences that makes us able to compliment each others' strengths and weaknesses so perfectly.
Besides that, you guys make lessons so damn fun!!! Remember how we would often make jokes about every single small damn thing and the times we piss our teachers off? Remember how Miss Poh would rage us for not handing our assignments on time and shouting "YOU SUCK" when we're not able to do a simple chemistry question? Remember how Ms Dina would want us to give her sweets when she catch us eating sweets in class cos sharing is caring and how we would always bug her to have extra emaths lesson when Os are nearing COS "WE LOVE MATHS SO MUCH??" Remember how Mdm Chan would end up talking to us about life in the midst of SS lessons and give us small breaks in between so we're able to stay awake for the remaining of the lessons? Remember how Mdm Sue became the most hippiest teacher to us this year cos of her cool use of language such as "swag" "LOL" and her most often "nuh-uh-uh" head and finger shake? Remember how PE lessons became one of our favourite lessons in the day cos it's the only lesson which we didn't need to sit down in our uniforms and do some boring homework? There's so many things I want to remind you guys about, but most importantly, never forget all those times we worked hard together. Remember, the 2.28% each and everyone of us hold! I LOVE YOU ALL DIAMONDS!!! <3
FNN Class
Sorry if we're taking away the coolest FNN class award cos we are indeed..... THE COOLEST FNN CLASS EVER. You don't get to sing along to the radio when you're having practical sessions in the food lab, have camwhore sessions in the class, go on a class outing and take pictures at a cinema, play basketball and have bbq together LIKE OUR CLASS DO. Though it's a small class..... It's one of the benefits of being in this class hehe. Being in a small class allows us to know each and everyone of us better, and because of this, we're more bonded together! We all have one thing in common- WE LOVE FOOD. That's fosure if not why are we in this class hahahah AND NOT FORGETTING, we have the coolest FNN teacher ever! She plays the piano, has her own YouTube channel and listen to the songs we listen to. IT'S AMAZING HOW TEACHERS AND STUDENTS HAVE SUCH CLOSE BONDS AND I REALLY APPRECIATE IT. Thank you FNN class from 4E1 of 2012-2013 for making fnn such an enjoyable subject!!
History class
MY FAVOURITE SUBJECT OF ALL SUBJECTS IN SCHOOL. My favourite lesson of the week! HISTORY. You know when people tell me history is boring and I just look at them like ???????????? cos honestly speaking I don't see the boring part in it cos I simply love every single second spent in history class! I believe all of us have a common interest in wars and the history of people and events and there's something we all can't lie about.............. We love sick stuff. Yes, like how Hitler lost one of his balls (testicles) in war. We enjoy history lessons because it's like listening to a story told to us and we're just enjoying every single drop of essence from it. We love history just like how we love our history teacher, Mr Sung. He's also known as our dictator, and we are his Sungnators that lives in Sungnation LOL (weird stuffs happen during and after Os)
Most importantly, I want to thank this awesome teacher of ours that's willing to sacrifice every single bit of his rest and break time for us to make sure we understand each and every skill/part of the lesson. Even if it means coming for night studies though it's not humanities' week, we all appreciate your efforts a lot. Those extra notes and exams paper printed for us were almost beyond priceless to us before Os and thank you so much for going the extra mile for us. No teacher, I repeat, no teacher I have ever met have ever done so much for a class before. YOU ARE AMAZING AWESOME BEYOND WORDS. THANK YOU MR SUNG.
ALSO, thank you history class of Ken Sung 2012-2013 for being such a wild and spontaneous class!! You guys make me look forward to every single history class in these 2 years! LOVE YOU GUYS MUA MUA
(ps our Ken Sung/dictator Sung got married on 22Dec!! Wishing him a blissful marriage and yes have loads of Sung babies because you ought/need to contribute the growing population of SG!)
I'm splitting this post into a few parts, cos I believe it would be very long if I continued to type. HAHAHAHA don't worry there'll be more to come!!! Hopefully... I'll be able to make it before 2013 ends hahahahaha I doubt so though HAHAHHA but I TRY OK!
It's a goodbye for now!
