Memories...

Time flies, before i noe it..my 3rd ROP Camp is over..As i was walking and walking, memories of my 1st ROP and 2nd ROP came flooding back constantly..
During my 1st ROP, i was a freshie who didnt pretty much give a damn bout all e politics then, and wasnt scared of anything and ended up surprising all the evaluators and Arts Club seniors.
During my 2nd ROP, i returned as the sole person re-running, and felt the whole world on my shoulders. It was much tougher than my 1st ROP, due to the expectations of running for President, and that i was leading an entire group of freshies with only Rayner and Bobsie by my side.
During my 3rd ROP, as i walked side by side with each and every single one of the 27th..i cant help but think how they ll be like at the end of their term..when they look back and realized how much they have grown. This is the start of the journey and adventure of their lifetime...

As i sit here in the clubroom at night alone..i realize it may be one of my last nights here alone..it is 5 days to AGM, where we ll hand over our coveted keys..
And as i type my AGM report and review the Club's progress over the year..i cant help but smile to myself..yes i am proud of 26th..And i have never ever been more proud of them...
I love this group of people..this group of friends..i really love them..even though as President i had to be niao and scold some of u a lot of times, i hope all of u understand that deep down inside me, i have never liked or enjoyed doing it to any one of u...and that i love u guys as much as my babies.. =)
It has been a wonderful journey seeing all of u grow up...the time has come for me to step down and move on gracefully..seeing Ruby getting fired by a barrage of questions reminds me of myself 1 year ago..it is tough no doubt, but this is a toughening process for the incoming President where he earns the mandate and respect of the people. The day has come where I ll be handing over e baton and the next lap of journey to Ruby, and i wish him all the best...
i love u guys..i really love you all..
