it's mid october already and this means that i'm two weeks away from the big exams and 1 month and 1 week away from 8 month-long break. i'm getting mixed feelings about... everything, from graduating to A levels and YCOMM! this is going to sound slightly emotional. i'm sentimental like that. i take some time to get used to having certain portions of the life i'm accustomed to taken out. and no better time to have an entry to bring you down my memory lane.

we just had our last ycomm meeting just now, officially. the next one will be during comm retreat. i didn't know this earlier because i thought we were going to have a november meeting. it didn't exactly dawn on me that i'm going to miss being part of the comm SO MUCH. actually i haven't reached a final decision about staying/leaving the comm but i would most probably step down. maybe i'll hang around as mentos(or as mini mentos first, haha. mentos is like an alumni) but i was thinking on the way home and yes there's alot to be missed which cannot possibly be contained in this entry i'm going to need to write a long essay if i were to recount. 3 years of monthly (or more frequent) meetings, june and december retreats, the people i got to work with (half the YM at least). and i just went to dig up some old folders which i will go through again after exams,all the good ol' memories. photos speak more than words so, photos it shall be! i'll caption the photos.

in december 2003, the first comm camp i attended and was publicity i/c in 2004. this is sam josh sam and i by the way. i don't have any other photos of 2004. you know, we comm people never ever had one proper shot together as a comm. :( not in 2004, not in 2005, but this year will be different!

2004 is the year of very interesting meetings at evan's house, where we deplete her food supply. half the time i'll be lost, trying to/can't be bothered to figure out what the rest are talking about. now you know why i didn't contribute as much. :P and i think this was the year of "we love you and we're all the same age!"

this was in 2005, on darryl's birthday. this is an almost-complete comm photo. i think we're missing shawn sinyi evan and uyh. still had long meetings. this was my first year as pres. and the road has been made smoother thanks to the supportive bunch of you. we all support each other!

2006, when our meetings shifted to the "table and chair" room and meeting agendas were tabulated, minutes were very well organised. and our comm is 1/4 the regular YMers. this is a photo of us having brownies with icecream during june comm camp. we love our breaks! end-year camp coming up!

this is not meant to sound odd or very unlike me but i want to plan more meetings and comm retreats and have meetings and pray for the YM as a comm and ... (if i step down, the next pres is not supposed to slack and ask me to do for you arh! :P i'll miss doing them but i won't do for you)

the reason why i'm going to miss it so much is because it's been a big part of my life. the ym has been and will always be. more than any school will be because i've been in the YM for a good 6 years already. i know i'm technically supposed to be joining the young adults next year but i'll always be a YMer (I'll PON YACELL FOR YM!) all the years in YM i never really pictured the day when i'll be out of ym. nah, i won't be. you'll still see me whether you like it or not.

and then there's TJ. half of me wants it to be over as soon as possible, free me from this torture! but the other half will miss going to school, having fun with OG15, ponning lectures and tutorials, being OGL for o2 and o1 2006, and most of all, CG29/05! although we're kinda clique-ish, i still love our class! tuesday's going to be our farewell assembly for our batch.


OG15 was good while it lasted. we were almost the longest lasting bonded OG in terms of having OG lunches every wednesday. then week by week the numbers started to dwindle and one day it was 0 and then we didn't really talk anymore thanks to stupid school system of CG and SCGs last year.


then there was SCG 27 for 3 months. back then we didn't have to worry about schoolwork (of course some people do) and could lunch out as often as we liked. it's always the same 8 people though. (see above) to TAU SUAN TIMES, fuzzywuzzy, piffling! and scg 27 reunions that never came to pass. oh well, we still have a forum thread right?

the people i spent the most time with in school
CG 29! there's too much to say

ok that's it. next entry after farewell assembly. must remember to bring camera. for now, i leave you with all these photos.

welcome!
