happy n sad day of my years in school
today is the day of pop( passing Out Parade). an emotional day, and broke record for being the most emotinonal parade ever. i will always remember this day all the way i go to aussie( that is if i can get there).
today we started with practising our drills, our last march, our last time wearing that uniform, our last time as official ncos. we were really pek chek with some of the irregulars.....nvm. so we carry on.
the parade started.we were standing there ready to march in. thoughts came in to my mind. 'i am passing out. the last time i am going to march, the last parade in np, the last time wearing this uniform, the last time as official ncos, the last time.....of everything.' tears formed in my eyes. thoughts repeatedly came in. then xiang, the pc1, commanded us to march in. i cannot march and wipe tears rite, so i hang it there. then at that time when i see the GOH squad, sec 2s, did better drills than i expected, my tears just gush down. i think the whole parade i was the onli one that tears came down. but sure got people also feel like crying. then shane say those words, i cry even more. of course never make sounds la. then i took the cert and sovenior. i down there dunno to smile, to cry or just to stay cool. and i wiped off my tears before marching to mr low.
after the parade, we went to take lots and lots of photos. we took grp photos. happy moments came in. make me smile, make me laugh. we had refreshments.
after that, we went to see videos. the ncos did a good job. bert, zhi zi, thank u for the effort, and all who helped him, thank u too for making it memorable.
they promise us to make our taps turn on, but it wasn them that make us like that, it was chest's videos. the song, the pictures, the fun, the memories. eventhough i watch the first two tons of times, but i still cry. my tap turn on because i was remembered of those days we had.
apparently, all of us cried except for darren. the ncos, unexpectedly, joshua cry too. that shows we are close to him. evn not as close to them, the sec 1s or sec2s, also cry. i'll miss them, miss the teaching and learning from them. i will miss their smiles and laughter. i will miss their not up to standard drills and campcraft. i will miss their naive attitude. i will miss everything of them.
then it was teechuan's turn. he wanted to let us hear what he dedicated for us on the radio. but it didn work. eventhough he had a veri long speech, but the one i most like is that ' we are true friends. ' yes, we will always be. forever be.
then the closing part, i wanted to say something, but i decided not coz they need to go home to rest.when they leave, i see thir backs, walking away. i then realize, this is no more for me. i no longer am one with them coz i am already retired. i cried.
then closing time, see sue there, reminds me of me the first time there, i start and end the parade. and i commented, ' the last time '. yes, its the last of everything.
then we went to marina south to eat dinner, steamboat cum bbq. we ate to our full. we eat alot and talk alot, had alot of pictures, have alot of fun. until.....
however our fun was somehow trashed, but we still have lots of fun.
maybe one day i should have a post for pictures.
