PSB HANDOVER BBQ 2007
Yesterday was the handover BBQ for the 06/07 PSB. I’m taking deep breaths typing this now because I want to make sure that I am able to express myself fully without letting my mind wander and also because I do no want to get too emotional with my writing. So if you are interested to know more then please… read on.
The day before, I was telling myself as I was going about my daily chores that, “I don’t want tomorrow to come, I don’t want it to happen… because… I don’t know how I would react in such situations.” Alas, yesterday was THE day, the first handover of my sec 4 life.
I went to school yesterday, making sure that I stayed positive and brave. Met up with the rest of sec 4s and whiled my time away taking photos. I wanted to keep such memories you know…
Anyways, the sec 3s did a fabulous job planning and executing the BBQ yesterday. I genuinely enjoyed myself thoroughly eating the food that you guys painstakingly spent time cooking and even declined politely when we asked you to eat. You guys went all out to make sure that the sec 4s and Ms Tang didn’t have empty plates in front of them and the food just kept coming and coming. It was also a great chance for the PSLs and SPSLs to interact together and know about all the latest happenings in your schooling life.
So yes, THANK YOU for the wonderful time together and I’m sure all the sec 4s felt the same way.
After the BBQ, the sec 3s also meticulously spent time clearing up all the rubbish and making sure everything was in tip-top condition, even asking us if everything was alright. Of course, we gladly said YES because it was great to see all of you working together.
Up next was the video presentation that was Jont spent ages doing and I thought it was a wonderful video. It showed all the unforgettable moments and cool events that happened during the past year. It certainly invoked laughter and nostalgia in everyone. And yes, most of the laughter was courtesy of my segment of the video (which was undoubtedly the longest part of the video) that portrayed me in an uber embarrassing moment. Shan’t go into details about that...
At the end of the video was the results of the EXCO positions and I think the all those who applied but didn’t get in, accepted the new EXCO gracefully and clapped and cheered spontaneously for everyone. All the sec 3s made that moments special. Well the 07/08 EXCO is as follows:
Chairman: Glen Ng
Vice-chairman: Linus Ong
Secretary: Alphonsus
Logistics Heads: Jun Cong, Sherwin
External Communications Head: Weng Keong
Curriculum Heads: Oswin, Muslihuddin
Internal Head: Ze Wei
Special liaisons head: John
COONGRATULATIONS~!!!
Yep, so my successor is Alphonsus! *Claps and cheers wildly*
So after the results were announced, the new an old EXCO members went up and gave small speeches. Let me say now that I am very proud of all the sec 3s and I think all of you are special and unique in your own way. Being up there to give a speech, my mind was a blur so I missed out quite a few things so here goes!
I hope everyone in the new EXCO will treasure each other and the thick and thin that you will go through as you embark on your own journey. Do everything with pride and confidence and do it because you WANT to and not because you HAVE to. Work well with all your fellow PSLs because you guys cannot do without each other. Always remember that us seniors will be here to help!
And I quote from Dr Phil that:
If you want more, you have to require more from yourself.
This can never be stressed on enough because it’s what every individual does that brings everyone to greater heights and also PSB.
To my fellow 06/07 EXCO I can never thank you enough for everything and all of you have been the best buddies/school mates/EXCO members ever! All the best for everything! And to dear Kevin Ng, our PSF I/C, thank you for being there always. Your presence has been a wonderful motivation too! Don’t feel too sad about not getting a t-shirt, k?
I LOVE EVERYONE IN PSB AND PSB IS THE <3!
I CAN NEVER THANK YOU ENOUGH.
ROCK ON!
REMEMBER THAT:
YOU NEVER STAND ALONE.
KEEP THE PEER SUPPORT SPIRIT BURNING BRIGHT.
