THANK YOU

3 years in Gyss, not a big deal at first, but the people made it a huge deal.

The very first time stepping into Gyss, hostile environment invited me. It made me wonder if I really made the right choice coming here. People stared at me as if they had never stared before. It was after school hours, so the place was filled with ferocious animals. I'm glad that I survived that.

I was late on the first day of school. I remembered it was P.E and the first person who stared at me was ASHLEY CHUA SI LI. The next person who approached me and talked to me was SHARI CHONG JING ER. Well, I didn't really cared about her at first cause I couldn't be bothered and was wondering if she was making fun of me or something. Days passed, and I've made some friends. I made friends with the few who were more less dangerous, WEE TONG, FELICIA, VIOLET, KIM. I had to sit next to ADELINE for almost every lesson cause she always have an empty seat next to her and I knew why after much lulz. I didn't really bother making any friends and people think I'm some anti-social emo 'i-am-in-a-cult' girl with my haircut. Then I made friends with people sitting around me during Chinese lessons. LOUISE was my partner and sitting behind me was MARTIN who would ask for tissues almost everyday. ZHI PENG and ZETSU was in front of me. Everyday, I would have ZHANGXIN and YOK next to me during morning assembly. They made me feel welcomed everyday. Slowly, I began to love this place.

The very first time I got invited out was to IAN and DARREN YEO's soccer match at Grange Road. Martin invited me, so I went thinking that it would be no harm. DARREN YEO had that look on his face which told me he's danger, so I didn't bother talking to him. Oh, and it was ASHLEY's sister's birthday that day.

Then I was the popular girls' best friend. ASHLEY and SHARI helped me fit in and I made so many friends. It was great.

People in Gyss had given me the best memories ever. Every little bit. From the awesome people to those tacky people whom allowed us to bitch about. How much fun and how much I gained. From Sec2 camp, to Prom Night. Every second and everyday has it's story. Thank you my dearest friends.

[in no special order. I just name whoever comes in mind]
ASHLEY
My best friend for 3 years and counting. Though you won't be able to graduate with us, but still, at least we had been together for 3 years. We had gone through more than ever. Heartbreaks, heart to heart talks, tattooing, shopping, laughing. There was so much. Thanks girlfriend, you're the best.

We could be buried next to each other when we die, we never know. Take care dearests. Without you guys, journey through Gyss wouldn't be so exciting, so unforgettable, so KIWEK!

P.S this took me 3 hours.
