nostalgia

one year has passed since we stood at the rooftop. it was an amazing feeling. to have gone through one year, and now, yet another year. it seems like ytd when we stood together, shouting R-A-F-F-L-E-S, giving everyone hugs, notes, encouragement....

council camp always makes me feel overwhelmed with emotions. in 2005, i never felt so accomplished before. it's like going through the whole camp makes you feel that you will be able to achieve anything, just anything. and with everyone else always right behind you, cheering you on. every single person mattered.

one year passed, and when it was time for us 25ths to conduct the camp, i felt like i was on a mission, to pass down nothing but the best to the 26ths. i told myself, i gained so much from the camp, i want the 26ths to gain even more. seeing my buddies did everything i did the previous year, i felt so much in their position, to want to fight in their shoes once again. but all i could do was to give support from the side, and through our actions, let them know the true meaning of a councillor.

as a grandbuddy back in school this year, i felt like reliving the memories again. i almost teared when i heard their cheering, and saw their running around. i was so worried for hy as a ccic, also worried for david as a vice-pres. but glad to see they were both alright on the 2nd night. buddy time was cancelled, and poor jun and kang who bought so much for their grandbuddies, they didn't even manage to see them. talked to david till 1230am before we left school. it was a really good convo.=) then stayed over at jun's house. i nv failed to sleep earlier than her each time i go to her house.=X

met 25ths for breakfast at macs before going to school. cc video was amazing. met up with my grandbuddies justin and vivian! justin is so....a lil boy despite his size. vivian is a really really nice girl.=) derrick came back too! so together with shuyan's tree, there were 9 of us.=D jerik and matthew decided to crash since dani couldn't be around, so our group became 13. afterwards, jason with his and rng's buddies saw us and asked if they could join! so in the end, a group of 16 were sitting in thai express, and making a reasonable amount of noise. heh. but it felt really good to catch up. talking about the good old times, and talking about what we're going to do with our own individual lives. after all, the age range was from 16 to 20. i do hope david sends us the photos soon!

i really do want the family tree to last much longer than it did last time. and since i work so near school, there isn't a reason for me not to go back to school and talk to my buddies and grandbuddies. my line is ever so powerful. HAHA.

and i must say, alex and alvin and lincoln are really funny but damn nice guys! when i was back on the second night, they came up to me and asked me how i was etc. and i felt quite touched. like i nv did get a very good chance to talk to them, but they were still concerned about how i was doing and all. oh man. nice juniors i have rite. awww....

a 24th is getting married. ?!?!?!?!

ah well. it always felt good going back to rj, despite how awkward i sometimes feel.

hmm ravenscoft on saturday. sat right in front so my neck was aching like mad. play was.....alright. but i guess sometimes it's all in the name of charity. i really hope they can achieve their target.

received a letter from usp about an interview. i'd really have preferred gms to usp, but i guess at least i know that something good seems to be emerging. but then again, interview has always been my greatest obstacle. it's not easy for me not to screw up my interview. but at least i know at least SOME organisation doesn't just look at results. i have to go look up on game theory, and read up on current affairs.

gms is confirmed gone. and any nus scholarships for that matter. hai.....

jaslyn whispered to me saying that i might be able to stay till june. i want to.... but i dun want to keep my expectations high too.=X

fri's tuition was good. partly because it was chem, and also cos it was a good session as i finally got to know him better! talked to dylan quite a lot about his family and stuff. glad i didn't choose to postpone it.=)

on an ending note, to jun, thanks for always understanding. nv could imagine life without you in jc, and until now.=)
