the final showdown for us Gradnite comm team. after much sweat, tears, laughter, joy & arguements over the past (almost) 6 months, everything concluded last night. it has been a great experience for me. i learned alot especially to do with logistics & thoroughly enjoyed it. was put to the test of time-management, & sadly, i reckon i still stinks at it. vividly remember the last or second last day of tickets sales, & had to rush all over the place trying to get project work done. i admit that i really completely forgotten about my group's written report. we handed our report late, by about half an hour? & my final academic results aint glamourous too. borderline passes for everything. thankful that i wasnt retained.
not everything went well, since there was still some unhappiness & bitterness beneath the ice-berg, but it was better than the teachers hoped for. my OGLs were there, & 2 of 'em, Aaron & Abbas were performing for the night. my OGLs thanked me for setting up their Gradnight along with the other comm, & we just hugged our last good-byes. just pray for the best for their future endeavour. their last advice, remember to study hard, & start preparing for 'A' levels after Orientation 06. thank you, & i promise to refrain from joining too many activities. really!
the night ended off with most of the Gradnight Comm dancing away till about 1am i think. a small talk by the teachers & we returned to the hotel together. ran into some troubles regarding the hotel room. only two people are allowed in the one room we booked, & not 20 of us. about 5 of them, thus, went out for late night movies, but heard from Yuko later that the guys were actually sleeping in the theatres. the rest of us just kept quiet in the room, sneaking up in intervals so as not to arouse any suspicions. shared supper & dozed off at about 3am plus. alas, some of us had to leave early for sch, because of OGL commitments. left at about 6am plus? or 7am. the journey back to sch was rather quiet. most of us were still nodding off/dozing off on the bus.
post GradNight thoughts, feel that i've been rather bias at times, especially when trying to cover up for a classmate & giving excuses for her. was being protective of my friends & my comm, stood up for them even when they were quite in the wrong. but it's nothing serious. i've learn that between love & friends, it's really hard to make a decision. it's hard to make a choice, so i rather avoid, & feign ignorance. & i know that it's cowardly. but i really rather not make a choice. not now. on the whole, i'm proud to be part of the GradNight Comm. i've gained something special from this, & that's experience & maturity in handling certain issues.
yesh, it has been a taxing 6 months of preparation, & grades might have suffered & CCA performace too, but it pays off when the night goes well, & seniors enjoyed themselves. mighty proud of ourselves, & a good job well done. i'm proud to declare myself as part of the planning commitee, logistics team of GradNight Comm 05! cheers! here's to all of us :)
