Nothing lasts forever,How fast the year goes by! I still remember the first day of school, when everyone didn't know each other & we were so quiet and now, the last day of school is over. There were big changes over the year, new friendships, old friendships remade, broken friendships fixed. New subjects, new teachers, new classrooms, new books, new everything. Now it all seems so familiar to us, complaining about homework, hanging out with each other, mugging for exams, etc.
At first, I was disappointed, but not surprised, to be in 1/1. All my best friends were in other classes & I was afraid of being lonely. Though now when I think back, I realise there was nothing to be disappointed about. Making new friends, leaving things behind are all part of life. And I'm grateful to have been put in 1/1 after all, because I made really close friends, as well as got to know alot of people I never would have met if I hadn't been in 1/1. I was never really lonely either - there was always someone to talk to. For that, I thank everyone in 1/1 for just being there, even if I never talked to you much. Because even the littlest thing any of you have done for me really means alot to me.
In 1/1, I learnt many things I wouldn't have learnt if I had been another class. We had the best teachers anyone could ever ask for & for that I am immensely thankful. I'll never forget the fun history lessons we had with Mr Fausta Tan, during which we spent half the time talking, cracking lame jokes (okay only Mr Tan did this, haha) etc. All the other lessons were also great fun, with Mrs Tan Aye Leng, who was always so caring and fashionable (heehee) and taught us to be rockets not rocks, Mrs Helen Tan, who made us mix around and bond with each other, Ms Shanthi, who always made lit lessons x100000000 entertaining and productive, plus all our other teachers, Mrs Vincent, Mrs Wong, Mrs Lee, Mr Armstrong, Ms Ng, Zhang Lao Shi, Kang Lao Shi, Mrs Zailee, Mrs Nicks and Ms Chua. I have to admit, strict as some of them were, I learnt alot from them and I'm very grateful to them. Thank you teachers! :)
Lastly, I think 1/1 '07 is PRETTY DAMN AWESOME :D Though everyone didn't know each other at first and everyone had their own cliques etc, I'm really glad we managed to work together in the end and win competitions like the Chinese New Year decorations as well as interclass tournaments like Class Banner, Captain's Ball, Netball, etc! :) Though I agree winning isn't important, it does prove how much we can cooperate and how much class spirit we have.
Don't stop, never give up
