i can be free.
help me to see,
everything fall into place.
wake me from dreaming.

yes, i am free.
it's so ironic. i never expected today. at the end part of a certain journey in my life that was greater than i had ever imagined. the end of something; the beginning of another. and i walked away with more than just footprints in my heart.

looking back, it was more than what the past 3 years taught me in tutorials and lectures. ten years down the road, i can still see myself sitting down to lunch and catching up with friends who have entered my life as classmates and have places in my heart now as life-long companions! "thanks" for all the wonderful memories, just cannot save my life.

i'm just going to miss all the little things: saving seats when we enter the lecture theatres late, bickering over which canteen to have lunch, running up to Level 6 for the PC labs, Level 5 for our lockers and Level 1 for the FPP; and sitting out in the orange and wooden benches outside UltraSupply to discuss projects or just to spend time in making jokes and laughing at each other. come to think of it, that printing shop does have various names: EasyPrinting, EaziSupply but i called it UltraSupply. how come nobody calls it UltraPrinting? :D

the last year was the most fulfiling for me. although, yes it was the most hectic semester in 3.2 that i can ever remember. Major Project started early, unfamiliar at first, confusing, frustrating, helpless and stale in the middle, busy and VERY chaotic, never-ending, does-not-click-with-CNY, frenzied and a total mission-impossible towards the deadline, stressful and anxious with the poster presentation but a well-deserved, satisfied success at the end. all those long days in the PC labs, transferring ourselves to the library after the labs close at 7 and sleepless nights are totally worth it, just to hear Evaluator 2 say that it was a job well done :')

wasn't coping well with the exams and deadlines for last-minute reports towards study week but i'm glad it's all over. it's the company in the form of friends that i will definitely miss. bumping into grace at the bus stop, seeing jodie walking in front of me at the bridge, hearing yinggie's laugh around the corner, stephanie saving a place for me when i'm late, sharon's hair blocking my view of Mdm Ong in the LT, rose always around to offer a hug when i need it, seeing someone in my class fall asleep during lectures when it's not me. many more instances, i'm sure (:

but it's not really the end. i still have one more semester! ahh. it'll be the class who will make it so much more different just by being around..
