Dearest SWOCs,

Wow. when was the last time i wrote something here...

glad that it's still alive (: because, i want to complain.. ' facebook doesnt allow me to register! ' I Shouldn't have even tried registering for it lah. Total waste of my time, and now i'm clueless to why i can't register.

Firstly, i'm not EMMily. Human beings are allowed face book right? ( even she has facebook)

Secondly, everyone keeps complaining that i don't have facebook so i decide to get one. See what happens?

Thirdly, i'm giving facebook 'face' by putting my pretty pictures ( and everyone's ) up.

Anyway, support DnD (: I've got my committee nearly up.

Chair : Ying Hui (D)
V.Chair : Grace (D)
Sec: Sue lynn (E)
Treasurer : probably Chee Kiang (A)

Prog IC: *drumroll* our beloved EMILY!!! (C)
Pageant IC: Edumund (B)
Publicity & Ticketing IC : Tommy (B)+ Keith (E)
Marketing IC : Joel (C)

Okay, enough of the randomness. I hope everyone is doing well, be it studies or in hall, relationship(s) and all. After the JCRC fiasco, some of us grew up overnight, some of us realise the obscurity of hall politics, and during the turmultuous few weeks, we made our decisions. Whatever choices that we have made... i guess we all do the things we do, just to be a little happier.

And i hope all of us are (:

With love always,

Sunshine.

I was talking to my friends cosily on the bed, feeling so happy that I have such wonderful friends. "Always be my baby" suddenly played from the computer at this moment, and tears just flowed out that easily. Love you guys!

How's everyone doing? It's been 5 weeks since SWOC ended, and the adventure continues within the block! :) I really miss SWOC, when I can just step out of my room, look at the messy corridor, jump right into someone's room and nua on the bed. Hope everyone is doing fine and room hopping as much! I'm totally dying under the pile of school work, and I realised I'm only in year 2! GOSH! I miss the outings man. Ok next up, lunch date! Haha let's go! (provided I manage to finish my essay due 4pm today :S) Do not forget the SWOCs, talk more than just hi-bye, I LOVE YOU PPL!

Congrats to Andy man! Woohoo go mesmerize all the aunties at OSA! haha :]

A Moment I Will Treasure Always. =)

开始的结束----- 致 SWOC0809

2008-08-10T17:57:00.003+08:00

结束了。。。

三个月来的计划、筹备、忙碌奔波；三个月来的抱怨、谩骂、胡言乱语；
三个月来的嬉戏、欢笑、月夜声歌；三个月来的快乐、惆怅、种种情怀。。。

8月8日，在十二人相拥而泣之际，我们的旋律也划上了休止符。

有人说过：“ 一件东西，总是等到失去了才知道如何珍惜。 ”

一件亦是如此，更何况是十一个真挚的友情？

一片空虚茫然，心中的十一个小孔，仿佛合成了一个无底的深渊！

我恨时间，不能让大家一直在一起；我恨天下，为何无不散之筵席；
我恨黑夜，再也不能随时看见你们的身影：我恨你们，在我的记忆中留下不可磨灭的烙印。。。

我恨自己，没有好好珍惜你们的友情！

虽说如此，一切也已经过去。

有多少的遗憾，也已无法挽回。

现在，我也只能祈祷。。。

我没有什么可以给你们。

第一次在部落格上载文章，把第一次献给你们，就勉强点把它收下吧：）

希望我们能和这篇文章一样，只是开始的结束。

希望我们能还有后续！

closure

2008-08-09T09:19:00.003+08:00

We have come a full circle.

From the freshies with their heads bowed, chanting ' Sheares Hall Sheares Hall.." , to the SWOCS leading the sea of orange. That moment, i realised leading a cheer infront of a crowd isnt scary anymore. That moment, i realised i fell in love with the Sheares hall cheers. Winding back to about 8 months ago, IHG... Ahh, me who dislike cheering , me, who couldn't open my mouth to cheer, finally gave not 40%, not 95% but 200% yesterday. 8 months ago, when i went clubbing, the cheers haunted me so much that i cheered in my drunken stupor, 8 months later, i cheered because i love them.

When SWOC started, it was so surreal. In each of our minds we had endless worries. Each day passed with us struggling to keep awake during the debriefings, and the 7th day arrived with us all in a mad rush to put up the best and perfect closure ever.

As I watched the masquerade ball come to its final moments, the song 'always be my baby' resounding in the background and the 12 so dear to me huddling close, the SWOC journey flashed across my mind. We ended the ball like how we dreamt it to be- a Sheares hall WHOOSH. So despite all the screw ups we made, SWOC '0809 was still a dream come true. Perfection is when we can accept the mistakes made. Thus, i would say SWOC '0809 was perfect.

Quin says, ' we work hard for each other. ' Emily says' the best that comes out of this is friendship' , Andy says' I guess, we've found our SWOC song' , Yayan says ' -silence-' ( she kept crying), I say, ' I found my perfecta'

And as the last Shearite left the hall, the emptiness and silence echoed ever so strongly, the decor in its half ruin state, was a epitome of how we have come nearly to a full circle then. I swear I would want to do SWOC all over again, and if i had a chance, i would step up as a SWOC again next year. I can't imagine others taking our place.

And because we put in our heart and soul, hence the tears and emptiness. I love each and everyone of you.

SWOC '0809
WHOOSH!

Ying Hui's story of SWOC part 1

2008-07-29T10:20:00.004+08:00

Let's live SWOC to the fullest to tell the story of WHOOSH.

The 12 who created dust into dreams and then dreams into reality. As the first step towards the camp descend upon us, perhaps we would loose the opportunity to pen down this adventure of ours, and thus the thoughts that were formulated would stay within and erode within. WHOOSH has been an adventure that brought 12 strangers together, an adventure carved into our hearts.

Quin would say ' three months of hard work all comes down to 7 days' . But these three months have been a whirlwind of events, an emotional roller coaster ride, and the fight between morals and integrity against Competition, which, like a black holes sucks me in. Sigh, the vices of competition. Yet, i've never regretted joining SWOC. Some of our entrance into hall was by chance; the random clicking of mouse by Ahbi. Perhaps at that time we were destined to meet, and the decision to step into that interview room that night sealed our fates. I've always marveled how each of us fit into our roles, not perfectly, but SWOC has been awesome so far, so i guess we were meant to be what we've taken up.

The next 7 days would pass by with a blink of an eye, before we know it, we would we putting ' i miss SWOC 0809' as our msn nicks. So let's put in our heart and soul to these last 7 days! As our dream unveil before us, and then fades away from reality into memories, at the end of it all, i know, we'll feel the same- we made it!

The end of this SWOC journey, signifies the beginning of another journey for us in hall.

WHOOSH!

Pefecta

2008-06-19T12:06:00.001+08:00

Perfecta, as defined by Andy, is " the defining moment of our life"

Be it in hall, or in life, how many of us can exclaim that we have found that perfecta. I was telling Emily, how we define our perfecta reflects what we desire most in life. Is it success, is it change, or simply, love? Mine's change for sure. I dread the viscous cycle that elicit boredom. What's yours?

Perfecta is that moment in time when we could feel that, that is the reason for life itself. With that perfect moment, it dosent matter how many trials and tribulations we go through, as long at the end, Joy and Satisfaction claims victory. Be it a surge of exhilaration, or sense of tranquility, when it happens, the feeling engulfs you wholly, your soul emancipated from all the burden you have been carrying. You know you'll go through everything just to relive that, because it's worthwhile.

At the end of it all, will SWOC be the perfecta for us?
