I HAVE NEVER EVER FELT THIS HAPPY IN MY 3+ YEARS IN NYCO AND XYZ. Not even in Sec1 when I was so IN LOVE with CO (I seriously wrote NYCO XYZ on pieces of paper during boring lessons) and so crazy in admiration of some seniors, I HAVE NEVER FELT THIS HAPPINESS before.

A few weeks ago, I said that what matters was to end off our years in NYCO well. No matter what has happened in the past, all the mental and emotional scars we are left with, WE DID END IT SO WELL. There’s nothing much we can ask for.
We have proven that we are not that lousy (as how we have felt since Sec1). We have no matter what lead our juniors and played our best and as part of NYCO, achieved GOLD with HONOURS. Half of us had no experience in SYF before, but I think most of our minds were crystal clear and we know very well how we should be leading our juniors and working towards music excellence. GOLD WITH HONOURS! It does not matter that almost ALL of us had no music background, because as proven, it’s the attitude that matters. It’s the mindset that gets us to where we want to achieve.

It’s probably going to be REALLY soon that we will officially be out of CO. We don’t even know if today was our last performance in our shiny BLUE uniform. I WILL MISS MY OVERSIZED BLOUSE AND SUPER LONG DRESS. This sounds MAD for someone who dreaded CO (especially Sec3). The moment I became a Sec4, suddenly, it just came naturally to me that WE do play an important role in CO and how we are will influence the juniors, and determine the future generations of NYCO spirit.

Juniors, especially Sec2s, in 2009 SYF, you are going to be the Sec4s (just like us now!). I hope that you did learn something from this experience and KNOW the importance to work and see CO as your priority at such crucial times. There’s no one there to tell you that “YOU SHOULD STOP WORRYING ABOUT HOMEWORK AND FOCUS ON CO FOR NOW TILL SYF BECAUSE YOU ARE PART OF THE 81 MEMBER TEAM!” How hard your juniors will work and how their attitude will be like is determined by your own attitude, enthusiasm and leadership. ALL THE BEST for the coming 2 years!

Sec3s, you are the batch whom we have watched you grow and change. Next year will be concert year, and it will be an equally important year! How 2009 CO will be like will be determined by how CO works together next year! You are going to be the ones who nurture the Sec2s’07 who will become the Sec4s in 2009. Concert is not something that is just for fun, it’s about creating good music, enjoying the company of each other and just makes CO shine even more! DO YOUR BEST AND TREASURE YOUR LAST YEAR TOGETHER IN NYCO AND XYZ!

Juniors, sorry if you all were SO tired when we drilled you all and just get frustrated very easily. However, all that worry, all that mornings, lunches and after school practices, all the anger (towards us – I know some of you seriously _______ us) it’s all worth it right? If it isn’t, why would WE SENIORS work so hard and worry our days and nights away over this?

From the moment of when the speaker comes out to talk a lot, and your heart simply goes thumping faster and faster with every single sentence that he says, till you cry out of nervousness. Right up to the point when 编号 8. 南洋女子中学校. GOLD WITH HONOURS! The tears that were out of nervousness momentarily changes into tears of unspeakable joy!

My fellow Sec4s, it is all coming to an end. Thank you for all the wonderful times, and making all things end well. All the tears (that many of us shed quietly – like maybe halfway through lessons) are all for the happiness that will live in us forever! All the best in everything else! SEC4’S 07 XYZ!

Thank you all in NYCO from performers, to backstage helpers, to instructors, to MRS EE, to seniors of generations and generations for all the work and effort and time. We can do it, and we did it! GOLD WITH HONOURS! REST WELL! Make up for all the lost sleep =)

P.S. For list of people I would like to THANK personally, visit my space.
