I guess, it's time for me to dictate how much I'm going to miss 2-7.
Hey 2-7, remember when we were 1-7? Our first day. We scrambled into class and randomly sat together in pairs. Mdm Ruhaiza came in. The first person she shouted at was Vanessa Yap. At first, that was the moment that I was scared. I remember, I sat with Sarah. :) After which we were reassembled again, to index numbers. Haha I remember Shun Sheng's Doraemon he drew. He hid it from me.
But that's not the point. We knew each others' names from games during Orientation like Whacko and such. The prefects, the banding of Mandarin MT classes. Back then we didn't think about our streaming. Back then the friction in our class was rougher than sand paper. Remember when Mr Loy used to teach us? Remember Mr Sim and his pedophile nature towards boys' backsides? Mr Heng and his one liner during his departure: "Parting is such sweet sorrow." Sigh, we're still one big yellow bananic class.
Secondary one. I remember the times when we had the newspaper trivias. Anyone remember what they're called? Remember the time Samantha was so angry and cried till her nose bled? Sometimes, if you think about it. It's the little things that are the cement between the bigger things. Haha and yes I do remember being Calvin's darling for a period of time. It was so funny.
Today, we're not going to be together anymore. Today, many of you cried over your results. But before that, let's talk about 2-7. This year, we had new additions to our class :) Fan Yi & Ms Li! Fan Yi became the best friend of Odelia and Vanessa Ong, and well well well, the rumoured boyfriend of Allson Teo the Sleepy. Ms Li probably was one of the prettiest teachers we had ever in the history of the school. :)
The first day of school this year was pretty horrific. I realized I was the shortest girl in class. Thus I sat beside Afiq. I was enthusiastic about it because he helped me heaps. Cute, too. Soon though, I changed seats with Sarah. Then I sat beside Thiha. And that's how I came to know about. Well you know who. Haha blame Mrs Ching! Thiha was a brother, and damn did we have so many conflicts. We fought so much. We had our handshakes that was constantly changing. And I probably announced the reason for his transfer from soccer to band. And he still denies the love!
Remember the wolf calls, 2-7? I won't deny I contributed to them a fair bit. But hey, Andrix too. He did change. From chubby to a tanned, fit man. Lionel too has a girlfriend now. Cheers! Haha, well. I guess we're tip-top in sabotaging people, right? :) It wasn't soon until we had our June hols' and class BBQ. It was a fail, that one. But it was fun, after all. The water bombs. The thrashing of Lionel by Mr Loy. The ghost stories. What isn't epic, my loves?! Then Ms Li left. I remember Sangeetha telling me her voice was shaking when Sangeetha asked if she left already. She was the most fun and best teacher yet. She bonded our class close together, packed closer than a pack of sardines. Mr Lin came too, I remember his Introduction video. Haha Do The Funky! People, don't get sad. We all have memories! :)
Oh then Si Jie's big dramas... Alex's Mad-Non-Stop talking in class. Allson's Marathon Sleeping. Andrew & Thiha minor-underage-homosecksual-sex in class. What else... well. I guess I must have missed something out.
Yes! Pink Sunshine :)
And yes! The fuss over who sits in front during the morning assembly in the parade square. Well.. ever since Ms Li left... there hasn't been anyone who was able to chase us up and going to the front. ;/ I guess it was all initiative.
Ah, then camp!
Camp was the most brilliant of things this year. I loved camp. Despite being separated from the other 3/4 of the class and stuck in some godforsaken hut with the boys, we were united at the canteen. Who remembers Ah Huat? He was my favourite! He kinda looked like you-know-who, right? Kayaking... rock climbing... the high elements obstacle course... eating... haha and of course. The campfire night performance! Sangeetha cried, I remember. Afiq was my partner. Might've looked like fools. But haha, it was worth the memory.
Exams came... hardcore competitive atmospheres! Zi Jian. Haha. Forever kiasu. William and his crew at the back! 4Eva Slackers. What else. Thiha! His craze over hip hop/ breakdancing. Ahmad & Tai Jong... forever fantasizing about girls with perfect hourglass figures and big bums. Remember it was only recently when the Name Tag offence was imposed? It was insane.
The results came back and many were left disappointed. SEP. Further bonding. Haha... and very much recently, the baking from Sam & Jas.
2-7, we might not be leaving or graduating right now. But everything, it kinda teaches you to remember every second you live next year with your new classes. So. Those who aren't really happy or satisfied with your classes now...
Hey. You tried your best, I'm sure. So I'll be direct. If you didn't study then what you got you very well deserve. But I'm sure many have strived and tried to grasp for their dreams. Don't take this failure as a forever take down for yourself. No - instead take it as a stepping stone! Don't let the miss for success let you slip and forever fall into the bottomless black hole. It just teaches you to try harder. Do submit your appeal slips! And if You ever read this - I hope you got what I meant. Listen, you're a friend, I hope like Thiha you can be my brother, except paler. Cheer up - I know it's gonna be hard but. You tried your best and we all know you deserve a spot in Pure Bio.
Now... the memorable stuff.
Cassandra and Jynhua! Can you hear Cassandra's sweet voice echoing inside your brain now? Calling... "Jynhua!" I know it always does. When I walked past the toilet at the fourth floor it did.
Jueying and Emerald. Forever together. :) Haha, you guys keep to yourself and well. You guys are really close and best friends. Shobbo and Meowmie! Haha :)
Dhiya and Izzaty. Haha you guys always bicker about small things. Weird pair, hehe. Dhiya's always fighting with Thiha, it's so funny. Lovebirds fighting. (wolf whistle) And then Izzaty's bangala. Haha.
Xi Wei and Sarah! Always attached to their handphones. One's some Mystery Guy and another's their Piggy.
Fan Yi, Vanessa Ong, Odelia and Allson. One's Jackie Chan, another's K-Pop, one more Pink fanatic and Sleepy Domokun fan. I guess we all know the couple in this clique :)
Sangeethaa! Our most fun fun fun fun fun chairman ;) She always had our welfare at heart, warned us about the kaching and was the most caring being in our class yet. We love you, Sangee! :) Thanks for everything!
Koey and Nicole :) Haha like Jueying and Emerald, they are inseparable! Nicole, like Sangee, you too care for us and warn about kaching. You're also responsible, haha. Thanks for everything too.
Jaslyn and Samantha! Thanks for the cookies, haha! :)
Vanessa Pancakey, Whatatatanaya and me. Man, girls! I'm gonna miss you guys the most. No more fighting about the most trivial matters... fighting over who's hotter and eating together. Gossiping about stupid things and eating McD's. Laughing hysterically and dancing madly. Sigh. Everything's gonna be different, bbys. ):
Jia Li. You idiot!!!
Ahmad & Tai Jong... forever funny bunch! Ahmad the joker and Tai Jong the Tiko! Haha the Jynhua fantasy eh!
Alex... Aiya we all know...

Si Jie - Forever gambling. Aiyo.
Calvin! Man, you'll be one dude I'll fucking miss! Stop denying you have abs, Cal. How's the Fei Fei coming along, eh? Haha. You and your music artistes obsessions. I like big butts and I cannot lie! See you Sunday ;)!

Andrix - Zai kia. Period.
Lionel - Another zai kia. This one is in love.
William & Ming Jie - The slackers unite! Haha
Cheng Jian - The IT man! hahaha
I guess that's all... if I left any of you out I didn't mean it! I swear. I'm just really tired after writing so much! Haha, well. Guys, we all walked out of 2-7 remembering everything today. Who knew it would end so fast. I'm choking on my tears knowing that we're not going to crowd at the door waiting for the next teacher to come. Things are going to change. And I guess change is why we're crying, now.
The boys will lengthen their pants. Many will skinny-fy them. Lionel, I bet. Ahmad too. Well.
That over with.
I'm gonna miss you guys.
Every
fucking
thing
that made us
where we are
why we're crying
and what others have defined or saw us as.
I love you all.
And I mean it.
Love, Your Useless Welfare,
Liting. :)
Haha okay I know the class tee is heck plain. I'm sorry.
