Ever since Mervyn quitted Maple, I have no idea of what he likes now. Anyway, he still likes to sing this song at least

Some pictures, some memories

We used to stare at the front of the class room, waiting for time to pass ever-so-slowly, sleep when teacher is not watching, copying down notes which we will mostly likely not to flip through again till the exams. Now looking at this empty classroom and blank whiteboard, somehow I feel like having one more day of lesson here, at this place, which we spent the whole of 2008 in. Miss the times which we studied together as a class.

This side of the classroom, the place which all of the SRs"gathered" during the last days of school, when exams were over and we were allowed to sit any place we like. If I wasn't late on the first day after school reopens, I could have been there too. (however it was fun sitting with JK) It isn't really a chance that we can come by everyday, the chance of coming together as SRs, and spend hours of time together.

Mann I like this corner. Had fun calling Mervyn to on and off the lights, and having half of the class to insist on turning on the lights and the other half to insist on turning off them. Tricking the teachers and made them think that there were something wrong with our lights. And its hard to believe that after one whole year, there are still some Cresmicans who havn't figure out which switch is for which light or fan.

The classroom is finally empty, after one year, and the tables and chairs all stacked up. Nobody will be using them for now. The classroom which was always filled with 36 people now deserted. Too many memories about this place to count, too much words about this place to say. It is THIS classroom, THIS school, not any other place, that's our home.

Considering that we spent more time in school than any other place when we are awake, and interacted with our classmates maybe even more than we interacted with our family members, I would say this is where we belong.

And this, the place where it all started. 1C classroom, with our class flag pole leaning against the door, being where it belong during the last few hours of its lifespan, being at where it was "born", being at its home. Who wouldn't want to be at where you truly belong when time is up?

Remembering the time when we first come together as a class, everyone seems to be like strangers, didn't know each other, not sure who will become your friends and who might become your enemies. Some people seem to be so open and lively, but some seems to be quiet and distant. However, what we truly know is, this is the people we are going to be with for the next two years, no matter whether we like them or not.

But just through three days of oreintation, we had unknowingly become one family. Soon after that, we learnt how to work together, how to deal with each other, and how to be "36 people, 1 identity" Series after series of events happen after we officially become Cresmicans, the first class gathering at Shaun's house, class outing at ice skating, and many other more, which bond us more than ever. Then there's level camp. Which I think 'what doesn't break you makes you stronger" and "true commradship is developed through overcoming obstacles together, and not just enjoying the good time together"

Before we know it, we were promoted to sec2. Then, an interesting classmate arrives, by the name of Junkai. Had trouble dealing with him, pulled Mr Tan down and made him busy over our class spirit. Some people were emotionally hurt, some people began to outcast him, some people wanted to help him get into this class but failed. It might be the biggest obstacle we faced during these two years.

But now, after all of it were finally over, and we would be going different classes next year, all these somehow seems memoriable to me. To those who were hurt by him, do you remember who were there when you were feeling depressed because of him? If not for him, would you be able to feel the care and concern of your friends when you needed them? Will you be able to truly understand that there's all kinds of people in this world, and hence able to face people who are like him when you grow up? For those who outcasted him, would you be able to learn how to separate yourself from certain person so that you can protect yourself if you hadn't had a first hand experience? And for those who tried to help him, there's no reason that you should be discouraged from helping other people in the future, as he was one of the harder cases to dealt with. And I believe that your efforts had helped the rest of the class.

For the above reasons, I want to thank Junkai. For being such a unique classmate, for allowing us to prepare for the worst when we grow up and step into society, and not living in the illusion that "everyone is kind and the world is perfect" anymore.

I'll also miss all the teachers, especially Mr Tan. Thanks for being there to guide us, to help us bond when we were still sec1. Never before had I met a teacher who spend so much effort just to organise outings, and focusing so mcon his students and always wanting to help them develop to their fullest. Even sacrificing his personal life and only marrying when we were promoted to sec2 and could take care of ourselves. Wishing him good time with his wife and the future of his teaching carrer.

It had being wonderful being with all of you for the past two years. Best wishes to whatever you plan to do in the future, and keep in touch.
