Farewell Party - A Success

The Farewell Party I organised ended successfully on 2nd November. A month later, I wrote this blog to express my feelings...a bit late, but better than never.

Roll of Honour
I would like to express my heartiest thanks to


Yoong Sin and Yoong Ling

a.k.a the twins,
my secretary and treasurer
my best friends......
Without them, there will be no farewell.
There will be no compliments, no success.
From the very first day I was elected the president, they have been greatly supporting me. They gave me advices when I firstly had some communication and misunderstanding problems with my members. They helped me make wise decisions, giving me honest opinions and thoughts. They helped me control and conduct my members, and also helped me solve serious problems.
Without them, I can never be a good leader.
They have been my eyes and ears. They worked hard and played their role with full responsibility. For the farewell, they did most of the work. They strained themselves physically and mentally for the success of the event. From financial planning to presents, they played an important role. They did not even had much food during the event. They helped me back up and adapt to changes during that day. They worked hard, never complaining.
How could I ever ask for more?


Eng Yap
President of Library Board 06/07
He is not easy to please, and it was no easy job being his succesor. Although he is very arrogant, proud and confident, he has a valid reason to do so. He hs been a very good example to follow. I learned loads from him. Thinking skills, courage, confidence, spontanousity...... When I faced problems (mostly concerning my members and teachers), I turned to him for advice and help. He provided me with guidelines and directions. He indirectly built my directing skills, job attitude and time management. Although I can never be as good as he is, I am still very good in my job, and the best among all on my year.
That's why I am President.


Suat Teng
for collecting money

Azman and Kalai
for being MCs. You both were the best I have ever seen.

Aik Cheong and Suresh
for being receptionists.

Shih Wei
for performing on the clarinet and flute.

Michelle, Suganthi, Mahendran and Charis
for the performance, although it didnt worked....sorry for the PA.

Cherry
for helping me on the survey and invitations. You are one of the most effective people I have ever seen.

Boon Fei
for borrowing me the player when I cannot find a laptop last minute. I knew you had a lot in mind and not in a great mood, but I still disturbed you a lot.......so sorry. And for calming me down when I was fustrated and not in an excellent mood during class.

Jun Bin
for entertaining all teachers when all the guests arrived late.

All of you who attended
who made the event a cheerful one.
who made my plan worked smoothly.
who made me so proud of my librarians.
who made me appreciate all of you.
who made me deserve the post as president.


Fantastic 4!! That's Eng Yap and the twins.


Such a complete photo, too bad I wasn't focusing.....hmmmm..... Committee 06/07 and 07/08.

TOLD YOU, I AM THE BEST ON MY YEAR, AND THAT'S WHY I GOT ELECTED AS PRESIDENT.
AND IT WAS PROVEN, OKAY?
ONE PROVERB FOR YOU, 'DO NOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER'.
I MAY LOOK NOT SUITABLE BUT IF I AM NOT, NO ONE ELSE IS.
I MADE MISTAKES, BUT WHO DON'T? I NEED TIME TO LEARN.
NOW I HAVE PICKED UP SPEED, AND I HAVE PLAYED MY PART WELL.
IN FACT, AFTER THE FAREWELL, YOU WERE IMPRESSED. DON'T DENY IT. THAT'S MOST PROBABLY WHY YOU KEPT QUIET.
TOLD YOU, I CAN.
I CAN NEVER FORGET HOW YOU HUMILIATED ME BEFORE.
HOW YOU TOLD EVERYONE ABOUT HOW YOU FELT TOWARDS THE WAY I DID THINGS.
HOW YOU THREW YOUR TEMPER TOWARDS ME IN PUBLIC.
HOW YOU EMBARRASED ME AND MY COMMITTEE IN FRONT OF ALL.
HOW COULD I EVER FORGET?
HOW COULD I EVER FORGIVE?
I WANT YOU TO SWALLOW BACK THOSE WORDS.
AND DON'T YOU DARE TO THREATHEN ME WITH THOSE WORDS THAT YOU WANT TO FIRE ME.
I AM NOT SCARED.
BECAUSE IF YOU DO SO, WHO DARES TO SUCCEED MY PLACE.
WHO FITS?
THINK. NOT EVEN A SINGLE SOUL.
