FINALLY...

Hi,

think its been sometime since anyone posted here so i shall be e first! haha.its really been a long long time like 3 full years since we last sat at macdonalds at kallang after our lifesaving course to talk about going to vietnam at end of 2006 which we eventually did. along the way we went on to undertake e nyaa(gold) to give e trip a purpose and it more then fulfilled its initial objectives. it gave all of us an opportunity to meet up during the jc life to do project, something that we hated at times but now looking back it definitely allowed us to stay in touch with one another whether its to play soccer or what.

we did what was required of us and achieved what we thought it might be too far away at most part in time.many times we felt like giving up really even i could nt take it anymore and how i wished it could all jsut end. its nt e projects that were difficult but e longlong time that we had to go thru tt made it challenging.i always tell myself that i would definitely cry or whatever when i receive e award but just yesterday i did not.

i didnt because looking back now it wasnt actually that tough at all. what made me felt like giving up at that moment was just that second of thought and nt giving in to that moment of madness was what lead me to yesterday. it was also because i knew there were 7 other great friends who was strivin along with me throughout these three years of hardwork.

if there wasnt tt discussion at macdonald and if there wasnt mr khoo, i dont see how we could go overseas for three year straight and backpack together.

if mr khoo didnt talk to my mum on tt faithful night to allow me to go kayaking(first breakthrough)i wouldnt have been able to kayak, learn lifesaving, go vietnam laos cambodia thailand china for e next three christmas,possibly even join odac go india, climb mountain, go for camps or even become a cadet inspector.

if the few of us did nt embarked on nyaa(gold),we would nt have stayed in touch(even for e most hated reasons frankly)and kept good relations with one another,laughed at each other and still nt get angry with each other.we would nt have been great friends for these six years.

if nt for soccer,we might nt have bonded so well. seriously, i think we rly love soccer alot la keep playing thou we screw up alot of things while playing we cant help but admit its our love for it that bonded us together.of cuz sometimes need balance that love arh.

if not for all our preserverence and hardwork and determination, we would not have successfully achieved all these as we stood by each other during the times we needed one another.

and most importantly, if not for mr khoo and his great deal of patience with us(and all our soccer),we would nt have achieved all these.

at e end of e day, receiving e gold award isnt really that glamorous afterall when u looked back. all e kayakin and skills that u have learnt, service u have contributed to e community are just part of e requirements. its really nth. its e ttime we have spent together doing them all and achieveing them all that matters. thats wd e award represented for me. looking at it now its just a badge sitting on my desk(without proper box somemore.lol)but it stood for our friendship.

i wear it with pride to show that we are truly e best coming this far and hopefully its nt the end(WE STILL HAVE VIET LAOS CHINA 2008).hopefully many of you guys share my thoughts and

YES WE HAVE FINALLY DONE IT AFTER SO LONG!!!

THANKYOU FOR ALL THE HARDWORK AND EVERYTHING!!!

WE ARE THE BEST!!!
