O-Week!

I left o-week yesterday with mixed emotions, very very mixed!

This is my 4th and last o-week! My first as a freshie and thrice as house i/c.

I can still remember my virgin o-week then. It was not too bad but not as fun. My house was not the loud one back then. It was relatively quiet and I remember that back then, my arts camp OG had to be splitted up to 2 grps for o-week. I had different OGLs and councillors for arts camp and o-week!

So when I was asked to be house i/c at the end of my yr 1 by Hock, I told myself, I wun allow those things to happen to my freshies and year after year, I have done my best to keep the entire arts camp OGs together for o-week, doing my best to try to keep the same councillors. My freshies dun have to go thru that I went through. Not that it was bad but that the fun could have been better maximized.

And so T-house was given the best house once more! On that note, I could not help but glow with pride. And I think I have really grown attached to T-house. I was telling Euwen about that, and he told me, 'T-hse' is an abstract entity, perhaps it is the people I have grown attached to.

While, it may be true that I have grown attached to the people, I have also grown attached to the structure and identity of the house. Perhaps, it is because the T-hse today is a built-up from 3 years ago and I could see my labour, sweat and frenships in it that makes me feel a special bond towards T-house.

Ask me if I would have gone another house if given a choice all over again, the answer is NO.

Even as a freshie, when I was in A house, I wished I was in T-house, the T-house then under Clement was possibly the most fun and rara house or so it seemed!

Yesterday, I walked away with sadness on knowing I will not come back anymore since I m graduating in a couple of months. Time flies and I can still remember the scene of queueing at MPSH, getting my 1st laptop, matriculating as a freshie.

We make frenz, tons of them as we go along in our journey in NUS. But there's only one of us, and it is hard to give equal attention to them. But orientations like this somehow bring us all back together, reminding us, that your frenz r still around.

I have said this many times and I still wanna say this, I am in deepest gratitude to Eric and Amy who had no intentions on coming back but yet came to help. To my dearest OGLs, Qianfu, Anhong, Doris, Chingfeng and Yenghong, who have given their best efforts beyond measure. Excellent is beneath them. The house could have ran well even without me! All my freshie councillors who always complain that I never thank them but deep inside, I know these guys could have well chosen to stay home to do bidding or come as a fresh freshie but yet they chose to come as councillors to help. Of coz, my freshies w/o whom o-week would have lost its meaning!

On another note, my personal frenz who have remained close till these day! Wanling, Qianfu, Layz, JJ, Jingyi, Wenhui! These people, though some of them were busy with rag, had their spirits so poured in! I could feel it despite some of their physical absence! I am truly touched!

And to my fellow house i/cs, Ben you have learnt and grown a lot and tat's excellent! Hocky, my president of 26th M.C. and personal fren whom sometimes sit puzzled with me at the occurances of certain phenomenon. Chongz, whom I have been acquainted with since jc years, and wakeboarding kahki: I am glad to have worked with you 1 last time as hse ic. Chang Ningz, who was my 26th M.C, deputy publicity director... it was woah, working with you and of course Michelle, I really enjoyed talking to you!

And my dear P.D and DPDs, o-week is over and we ended off well despite hiccups! :)

And to frenz of other houses (actually mainly from S-house): Leon, Carol, Jingheng, Bit.. u guys have cheered me more considerably in the midst of my physical tiredness!

May the frenship burn forevermore
