A Rush of Blood To The Head
Sometimes words can't really do the job of changing one's perspective or belief. Sometimes acts and achievements do the job better. This year's CCA award ceremony was incredibly moving. It has powerfully impacted me. I wanted to be like many of the people up on the stage. It moved me and it made me believe that nothing's impossible. And so, I made a promise to myself - to make a difference and take a place on that stage next year.
Talking about my school's motto, I went back to school - Hougang Secondary, last night for NPCC CAMPFIRE! Met Eagles and boy, were we high! Although, not many of Eagles turned up but we managed to bring the house down! I think we frightened most of the campers and even the teachers. It was awesome having to meet after soooo long and had such a memorable, entertaining and engaging experience and participation during the CAMPFIRE. Not forgetting, the everlasting laughter and madness from Andrew, SiongPo, Rebecca and Fangning. It was INSANE. Personally, i loved the friendship dance. It has never been so coordinated and significant. hahaa, we actually made NEW friends - the juniors! Impressively, we thought of a new cheer for Eagles.

The best part of it all is walking around school as a squad and falling out as a squad too. How i wish we could still go for trainings, march and fall out as a squad again and again. I used to mind. But now, I'm craving for those memories. Yesterday, it was so memorable. We actually "Bersurai" after 2 years of not doing so as Eagles! Haha, ALTHOUGH ANDREW DIDN'T GET IT RIGHT AND STARTED MARCHING OFF FIRST! It still brought tears to my eyes. I didn't regret going for the campfire last night, in search for the memories to ease the pain inside me. We've been Eagles for 6 years and counting simply because once an Eagle, always an Eagle!
I used to cry a lot during my secondary school years. In fact, I cried all the time. Even when there are no tears, my eyes have the haunted hollowness of someone who is sobbing inside. But thankfully it ended and i stopped grieving with every piece of my soul before the years end and somehow, it paid off (:
I feel like I'm a totally different person now - stronger but still as busy and disorganised. I have contract law report to be completed and revision for accounts! TIME is never on our side, i must say. Next Monday, school re-opens and I'm not even moving on yet. It's TIME to move on.
