EDITED.Sorry, please reread the individual part again or below because I edited it.Wrote this almost immediatly after I woke up at 6am but forgot to post it and saved it under draft instead..So I was yet in a clear state of mind. Haha. Sorry =DHello.
I can say that today has been a memorable day for me.
And..I experienced all different sort of emotions throughout the day too.
I shall post what happened today according to what happened as the day went by.
So that I can always refer back to this day =D
Let's start the day now =D
Was late in meeting Yinglan for breakfast.
I was glad that she came back.
For..she always mentioned about wanting to return but never does so.
So after knowing that this week goona be the last practice for the Sec4s as well..
She came back =D
Had breakfast with her to relieved the old memories.
Went to school for CO.
It was the last dazu I am going to have.
And also the last I would ever have that beautiful(though with loads of scratches) cello as 'my Cello'.
Practice went as normal and actually, I was affected by something Guo said that I only went back to my normal mood after break.
Had break and it was giving out of Muffins time! =D
It was my first ever try to bake and luckily it went out alright.
Okay, the powder was ready mixed kind.
But still, eggs, water and butter is to be self-added..
And so..its still valid that I baked successfully right? Lols.
Must thank Chuiying for this though.
Because she made it possible since I didn't have a oven and know nuts about baking. Haha.
My aunt makes nice pineapple tarts and though I helped in the producing of pineapple tarts as in to add the pineapple(nothing else XD)..I know nuts about baking.
Well, I'm glad your like it.
Took pictures and haha, it was the nicest break I ever had. =D
Practice resumed.
Me and JunYan somewhat didn't play much.
Was slacking at the back.
Only that later Fusheng tell us to treasure the last few minutes. Lols
During the normal procedure of saying thanks to the conductor, I felt sad.
It started to rain. *I didn't know that the sky understands me so well! Lols, kidding. *
I don't know why, but Yinglan seem to be still like the same.
Hais.. =/
Let's jump to the part where they were all preparing for the party.
I was left with nothing to do and nowhere to go.
So I roamed around and landed in the library later.
Just when I got comfortable in the library..they were done.
So I stopped reading and went there.
All I could say about the party was that......
I really appreciate everything that you all(the juniors) have done for us to make this party work out.
Really. I give my heartfelt thanks to you all.
Though simple, its was heartwarming enough and it would definitely stay in my memories for a lifetime.
I shouldn't elaborate more about the party because its not like something that can be easily put into words?
So I shall just let the picture speak its stories when I get everyone's photo's =D
So now I shall talk about what I truly feel deeply in my heart about CO since CCA is stopping
permanently for us.
CO has been a part of me since I started life in NAS.
Though it wasn't the top of my choice, I still stuck to it as I thought of it as taking up a totally new CCA.
How I got into cello at that time was all a coincidence.
I wanted cello as it was the only western instrument at that time apart from Bass which is actually a family with us.
So cello&bass used to be very close..unlike now =/
But the conductor mentioned that alot of money would be spent, so I didn't choose cello.
But because Germaine sat beside me, I was called by the conductor to 'accompany' her since I had big hands too(LOLS).
And so, my adventurous journey in CO-cello started.
My
sec1 year wasn't much of interaction with the others.
Didn't learn much either because the seniors were busy preparing themselves with the upcoming SYF.
Didn't really interacted with many but mainly more with Huiling and Vick.
Both of them helped me with cello stuffs.
I still remember the times when I'm always rebutting Vick for somethings he said and he said this sentence once to me 'scarely next time your juniors all also argue with you ah! *with his smile like always*'
Hmm...does this seem familiar somewhere in my juniors?
Haha, why not you tell me about it?
JunYan, was my behaviour that time like * ? Lols
*Hopes not*
I thank Hui Ling for teaching me the things I don't know and being forever so friendly.
I don't know why but I could never been able to relate the other seniors to be as friendly as you at that time.
And also, for all the fun you have given me.
Sec2Stacia's batch left.
I felt that we weren't as good as we were.
Promoted to having juniors as well =P
A change in internal instructors.
Now..this is when Tian steps into my life. Haha.
I could never forget the first lesson we had with her in the classroom block.
And as usual..no not usual, that was the first lesson. How can it be as usual? Lols.
And so after seeing us play and me being as lousy as usual(now..that is as usual =D)..
I got scoldings. Haha.
I remember that I once asked her if she can help me to write those fingerings like 4G 3D 1A 3C just like how mrPan did.
And for that, I got a lecture by her for don't know how long but that also started me out on my journey to playing
according to the
notes and not according to the alphabets thing.
And I believed that this was the year which I improved.
Especially during the period of time and after the CO east zone camp thing that I went with Cat and Fusheng with a leg injury. Lols.
This was also the year when I interacted more with the seniors.
And also the year whereby my impression of YingLan changed.
Sec3Everything seem to just proceed as normal because of the busy preparation for SYF.
Every hard work and blah blah blah during this time frame is badly missed.
How we all work together towards a common goal.
Not forgetting that I had a unforgettable scolding from Tian again.
Haha, my cello life seem to be nothing but scoldings since she came right? Haha.
And I still remembered the times when me and HuiLing will be chatting on the phone..
Both gossiping..sharing..and others. Haha
Not to forget how I would rant to her about Tian scolding me for my bow posture and stuffs.
She agrees that I got the most and serious scoldings too. Lols
After the SYF(2nd April)..
it was the period of time when we all had this 'break' from CO.
And when we were back from this break..
The seniors were no longer here D=
We had to learn not to rely on the seniors.
Sometimes, I really feel helpless and frustrated.
Especially at the beginning when JunYan wasn't willing to help me yet.
Having no one to look for if Fusheng didn't came back.
Being handed over the duty as a SL..
there was so much rubbish to settle at the beginning.
About the missing items and blah blah blah.
At times, because of the disappointment gotten in return..
I even wondered, am I doing the right thing?
Is everything that I had done even matters?
Who understands the reason behind on how and why I did certain stuffs?
I doubted myself. More than usual.
The journey was a adventurous one.
And maybe I have since started being more sociable with others that I might not use to hang out with.
I also had to cope with the new life of having no seniors to hang out with.
And thus, I have even gotten myself a few better and closer friends.
Got to know more about the juniors after the interactions.
And I can say that though I always knew that they were nice in their own ways..
I never want to admit it to them XD
Sec4It came to me that time passes sooooooooo fast.
It seem just so vividly to me what happened when I just joined and now here I am, about to leave.
Happy moments never seem to last long hur?
Haha. I don't know what am I talking about either.
And right till the very last sectionals, I'm still getting scoldings.
Haha, isn't that way cool!
To have things ending just the way it has started.
Things that happened made me not want to do anything anymore.
But feeling so indebted, I can't help but would just render my help if needed though not appreciated.
Okay. That will be the end of my cello journey but yet the start of another's one =)
So to my juniors, take care okay!
Now, for the individuals.
JunYan : Errr..I have already told you what I have wanted to tell you. So there isn't much left for me to say to you. Lols. But still, thanks for making your presence sensed.
HuiYi : Though I only started interacting with you late, it's been fun knowing you. You do have your own qualities too. I bet you know about it already without me saying this.=D Sometimes, you have to learn to be firm on your stand. You would prove to be outstanding in your own way, but stop following the crowd always. Overcome the strings too okay! Lols. Jiayous! If there's anything..you can just look for me next door XD lols.
Shumei : To let you know, you were originally the one I thought to be the next SL. I'm not going to touch on this topic much as I don't want there to be like any grudges or what. But just to let you know, this is purely what I think; if you think its not applicable or what, just ignore it okay XD. Sometimes, you have to be more sensitive towards your surroundings. I'm not asking you to be fake or pretend liking something that you don't like, but certain actions sometimes might seem to be nothing to you but yet seems to be the world for others. Do help the juniors!=D You've been a nice junior and continue to rock on! =D and..don't appear to be so emo or angry hur? Lols. Next time when we meet..must say 'YO! WAZZUP DUDE!' okay? hahaXDD
Catherine : Hello! You're the first junior that I interacted with you know! Haha. I knew you were a nice person to hang out with right from the start. You never seem to lack of jokes. Be it dirty jokes or cold *grr...cold...* jokes. But you soon started disappearing =( . Haha. Remember the times when you and me were getting the most scoldings from Tian? Haha, you seem to be so fragile that time and yet I believe you are strong! Well, even though you might be lagging or appear to be lagging from the rest..you do know personally that you can do it. So the main thing is, why bother about what the rest thinks? You work for yourself and not for the rest. So as long as you think you've benefitted and done well, that's enough. =D
Yuyun : Yoyo! So..let's see... Hmm... I think I've nothing to talk to you leh. Lols! Did I once again break your heart into bits and pieces? Haha, well, I don't hope to do that. Use your E.T powers to fixed it back! Like you know, you've been one which some said that you're like my cello hou dai. Lols. 你对这个足见有什么看法呢? Well, I believe that you can see for yourself how much you have improved right? =D Sometimes, you have to adjust yourself to expect lesser then since the world will never obliged you. If not, you're just giving yourself unnecessary pressure. I believe that you will be able to do well and can lead. We'll continue any others in the letters k! Lols! XD You totally reminds me of myself and huiling sometimes.
Liying : Hello. You have been one junior which not only I think, but Tian thinks too that you're outstanding. You do have the skills and you get the hold of things fast. I don't really know what to say to you because I think you've basically been great enough XD. I still remembered that time when me&yuyun went to your place and we started being childish playing with the markers. Haha, and how I hogged onto your com because mine spoilt. Maybe I've yet to see that emo side of you because you're always hyper infront of me. Nevermind, that's a good thing! Remember..STAY HAPPY K! Don't miss me too much then turn emo XD
Gracie : Do be willing to work on your basics okay? Okay, I know you won't be reading this or what but I just hope that you'll know how to improve. Sometimes, you have to appear serious and shows that you do care about what has been said. You're always presenting those kinda 'Orh, Orh, Orh' behaviour. But whether you internalise on the comments given to improve, no one knows about it. Continue to work on it and you have HuiJie there to help you right? =) Take Care.
Serene : Though I haven't gotten to know you for long because you just joined us..I had great fun knowing you. Also came to know of how you all felt after the concert. I'm sorry that you all actually thought that the seniors were mean. And though yet not being that close, you were willing to take the step to be closer by coming for the party XD Take care okay!
Chanel : Though you have been one pretty mean junior by guailan-ing us when you first joined..I'm glad that you bother to listen to what I have to say on the way you are behaving and presenting yourself on others. I hope that you will continue improving on your skills since you have the interest in cello. Though being slightly slower then the others, it doesn't mean that you won't excel in cello, and from what I know, you've been slower then the others because of the wrong basics you know; about the G string being the C string on the scores. Do work on it and I believe you will get better. And...I won't tell you which floor I live at because I don't want you to give me a sudden surprise when I'm not ready. Lols.
To the other juniors that I have not mentioned, I just wanna say that you all can do it. (Tian sees the potential in you all. Haha XD) Just practice more and more and more. Jiayou!
Okay, I gonna end this post here.
It's been a long one and I guess you've been sick of seeing me typing.
So I shall end here.
Stop being so lanky though it has already been one lanky one.
Picture post will be another day. Haha.
And again, thanks for everything you all have given me.
Be it memories, gifts or anything.
And now I shall say it clearly that my juniors are really
lovable!
And also..I wanna say something!
The box really really really really really gave me a
pleasant surprise!
See how much I emphasize on the pleasant?
Haha. You know..it all turned out so sweet!
Let's see what happened k?
I was taking the stuffs out of my bag.
And I don't know why but the box just came loose and everything just spilt out of the box
very nicely..The pictures were scattered in a uniform manner, with all the paper hearts everywhere and all it contents...I was really really really really surprised when I saw it.
I was really really really touched too.
Because...everything just seemed so sweet!
The pictures were like only taken in the morning..
We only parted for a few hours..
And the next thing I knew...
The pictures were all inside...
Thank you! =)
Theres so much thing that is left unsaid.
