Dedicating this post to my best friend Dennis =)

Yup, in the twinkling of an eye, we’ve known each other for 4 years. No lah, after you quitted german and joined mep, we started ponning general music lessons as early as sec 1 already, so that’s when I gradually knew you better. That’s why sec 1 we can start comparing results already x)

In sec 2 we were both positioned at the right of the classroom. Crap, it was that time when Lennard started giving me bad influence and played handphone games in class, particularly Real Football and Worms Forts haha, and that was how I learned his famous trick of playing the handphone inside the pencil box. -.- Then during mep lessons, we borrowed Ben Wee’s phone and started playing Real football too ><

At that time we were quite inseparable I remember, like go everywhere also together. Haha then I recall got one time where you solo-ed the rolling-ball-structure project while I did the geography brochure project, the latter being some epic flop. XP

Um yeah and then as we moved on to sec 3 I decided to not take triple science and also took history instead of geog…

But when I went back to school in December for RISE rehearsal and saw on the board that we were in the same class, I was really like super happy and felt that I made the right choice. Zhaokai was with me, and he asked “What’s with you and Dennis?” “Well, I don’t know, I just feel good having a great friend like him.”

Well in sec 3 you changed your mindset for the better, so kudos to that. Yeah I was still stuck with my ongoing addiction to handphone games and computer games, but that’s really mainly my fault, cannot blame you.

We grew further apart, both in terms of friendship and seating arrangement, and yeah people like Winston who also plays handphone games in class doesn’t really help. (Poor Joshua… smack in the middle of Winston and me) Um and other than RE, we didn’t do any more projects together and frequently I was sorta “dumped” in the leftovers group while you continued being closer with people like Bryan Kum and Zong Yi. To be really honest, I really felt quite sad and envious.

Actually I was looking forward to the bio lessons and Thursdays more, because on Thursdays we have MEP lessons and at least usually on that day we’ll walk together after history class to have lunch together.

Yeah finally in sec 4, towards the end of term 3, I finally straightened my thoughts and started mugging to salvage whatever is left of my 3.33 gpa. You did help me a lot during this phrase what, and especially MEP Stravinsky Rite of Spring revision =D where we have our question-asking penalty shootouts. I really enjoyed those times. But still, its too late to hug the buddha’s leg before the exam, and even last minute (actually like last 2 months) mugging can’t really held a lot, and even though I manage to pull up 8 bands to get a 3.56, its still a saddening gpa which really taught me a life lesson.

Sometimes I thought maybe in secondary 1, when Mrs Chiang gave vocal assessments and asked me whether I wanted to join choir, I should have said yes. But its okay, I don’t regret the choice I made, as it also got me another soulmate which I’m dedicating my next post to.

I hope you don’t feel bad, in life the person itself must be willing to change himself first before others can change him. No point telling the person how to solve the rubik’s cube if he refuses to turn the side himself. I stumbled in my third layer and screwed up my sec 3 and 4, but RI(JC) is a new solve once again and I won’t screw up this time.

Dennis, your name is still the first one I look out for whenever I open my msn and want to talk to someone, and the second one I look out for whenever there’s some exam/test/audition result. Yeah even though I still felt a bit bu-gan-yuan that I got pwned in academics in sec 3 and 4, it just got to show that the result you get is the amount of effort you put in (or the amount of attention you pay in class T.T).

Well, if you do need someone to compare your results with, to suan, to get suanned, or even to talk to (im a pretty good listener, maybe because in the past I hardly talk), just feel free to come look for me and I promise that I'll help you out to the best of my ability.

Thanks for your help, and all the best in RJ :D May you achieve what you set out to do, especially your bid for council.

Well that’s it.

(haha I dunno how to put labels, someone teach me)
