Hello I'm back to blog! :o) I realised I haven't been here in a while. Well, like I said common tests are over and we are all trying to get back to our original school-life cycle of play hard, study hard. Or is it play harder? and study not so hard? haha no can't anymore. Promos are coming up. *dodges the chair being hurled in my direction*
Went for RG sec 4 farewell last night. Or is it fine? It was so strange being an alumnus and watching the farewell concert. I still remember what it was like for me last year. Ok fine last year wasn't really an official farewell, but it was still a goodbye to the sec 4s nonetheless. I watched and listened as the played all their signature batch pieces... more specifically aventura. :o) I watched their facial expressions change as they played on. I saw the sorrow and I saw the tears. I saw the initial smiles turn to tears and I reminisced [sp?] about last year. All the nostalgia. haha. But still, it felt strange. Especially after the concert when all the posts were being announced. My batchmates and I sat outside in the foyer at the staircase where all the cheerleaders usually practice. We talked about the good old times and the present, and I'm very sure that each and every one of us wished that we were back in RGS band. I doubt that there will be many high times as there were when we were together as a batch. I still remember... we shared so many tears, so much sorrow. But through it all, we shared the joy, the happiness and who can forget, the crappiness. How we used to lounge around the band room immediately after school hugging mao mao and throwing dao dao somewhere across the room. *smilez* Our constant obsessions with various things like bridge [which, may I add, is still one of our obsessions] and chess. as in real chess... not the piece chess.. although it is an addictive piece. haha. How we used to lock ourselves in the band room when we wanted to pon lessons and we would just talk crap or sleep. How when we stayed over during band camp or illegally [*smilez* tse min, liu rui and xin *winks*] we would lay newspaper on the floor and eat, much to the dismay of xin. "NO EATING IN THE BAND ROOM!!"
When we got new tubas, the gigantic box they came in became our official "car" and we dumped tse min inside closed the lid and pushed her from the corridor all the way to the foyer where serine was. oops.
How Clarine used to chase us around the band room trying to whack us... and we ended up running out of the band room screaming our heads off [or was it just me? -beams-] and running through the corrdiors into the foyer down the ramp into the canteen up the staircase and back into the band room only to collapse from exhaustion and suffer at the hands of Clarine. ;o)

RGSSB batch 2003. May our friendship never fade. May our love keep us together forever. May the music that binds us keep playing on in our hearts. May the spirit of the RGS band continue to burn bright in us.
Love you all so much.
