Ha, finally settled down to start writing=p
The past few months had been one of the best moments i've had... Thanks to my friends (u noe who u are).. Deciding to stay in hall during the 1st sem was something which I desire but not a necessity, even though I live in the east. But the prospect of being around my friends was the main deciding factor. And of course bcos my dear friend who tried all her means to secure a place for me. It's really sweet & I truly appreciate that gesture.
Upon moving into SH, I felt totally lost. I muz say that not attending any orientation camps or the like is simply, bad. I knew no one in there except my jc friends.. I know they had tried really hard getting me involved in hall activities, in meeting more ppl in hall, in engaging more in their conversations, but somehow things din seem to work out as expected. Even till now, I’m sad to admit that I still dun really know many ppl in my blk, what more the entire hall...
Nonetheless, as I moved out of SH last wk, it was hard.. I din bear to leave... All the memories juz flooded my mind as I walked out hall... I missed a lot of things in hall. The suppers. With dan, most of the time... somehow, we are always hungry at midnight.. but it was a gd thing... at least, I tried to put on some weight; dunno if it helps but well, I can never put on enough weight.. glee... den, tat bernard's always complaining of putting on weight!? Hai.. come on, juz do more crunches man... haha.. Mark will join us occasionally and eley too=) Missed the fried rice (with chilli, yum!), chicken naan and black pepper chicken... SO hungry now... growl...
Aca practices were fun too... though I ALWAYS screw up... sigh.. I guess i'm still trying to get used to singing in parts after a long break from choir. The ppl in aca are nice and very welcoming... very talented too.. GLC was really a good experience. Despite several public performance experiences, it was terribly stressful preparing for GLC. I tink it's probably the expectations of ppl in hall and myself... Till now, I still thought I sucked during the performance but ppl were encouraging, which is comforting. I tink I could have done better. Now that I’ve left SH, I wondered if I would ever get the chance to perform for SH again... sad...
Of course, the most memorable times in hall were the late nights when the 5 of us stayed up in eley's rm to chill out & chat.. Xin's birthday, belated MAF... in dan's rm, watching the penguin documentary & doing up the scrap book for eley... In my rm too.. And mugging together thru the night during the exam period.. I muz say that all these times spent together really brought the few of us closer... much closer than we were in jc... huixin even drew up a pic of our future houses (the one with dan drowning... HAHA!).. It’s a wish tat is hard to fulfil but the thought matters.. Really.. I'm so fortunate to have all of u as my friends.
In no particular order:
Thanks to eley for getting me into SH, for keeping me company when I needed it most, for confiding in me when I din give any constructive advice, for jogging with me, for studying with me... for everything u've done. Thank you.
Thanks to huixin for keeping me company, for putting up with all my nonsense, for mugging with me, for having dinner with me.. And everything else. Thank you.
Thanks to dan for being my supper buddy... haha.. for mugging with me, for your company in aca ( I wld have been really lonely if not for u), for ur videos & jay's album... haha... Thanks man!
Thanks to bernard for all the encouragement and for ur effort in trying to get me into ur clique though it din work out, for lending me "full house" vcd (love it man!) and for mugging with me too. Really appreciate it. Thanks brother!
Thanks to mark for making the effort to join all of us in SH, for mugging with us, for shopping for gifts, and for ur presence at the Good Luck Concert. Thank you!
Bernard, Dan, Me, Huixin & Eley... A pity Mark wasn't around
I feel so long-winded.. haha... but I really really appreciate everything cos these are unlikely to take place again after I moved out, after huixin sets off for Berkeley, after eley graduates.. sad.. how I wish I could let the time halt for a while to let the memories linger abit longer...
