Temasek's Light...

The time is ripe. It is all over now, my epic voyage has finally come to an end. These past four years following the guiding light of Temasek Secondary School has finally faded. People rejoice in unison while I took a final look at the school which I enrolled into. I looked back on the days of the school taking part in National Day Parade, the everyday lives of a mere student of the school, the duties of being a peer support leader, the fun filled and full of frolic end of year camps, the Pahang Trip and the once in a lifetime experience the school had showered on me. I just cannot believe that I have finally ended this journey being a temasekian.

I will miss people who I considered friends, Mrs Ou Yang our principal who would be leaving the school, the teachers who had imparted all their knowledge, the PSL family and excos, Mr Oh, Ms Lee and not forgetting the group of people who have supported me all the way, my committee, Proj-teens. I will miss them all for they were the reason why I have kept my spirits high. It has been a short yet enriching journey and to me, those fond memories with laughters, smiles and a simple 'hi' were the ones I am unwilling to let go because they kept me alive.

"We will be the best that we can be, for all things new cause we believe. We will shine with pride, Temasek's light for all the world to see" and "All we can give is the life we live" were part of Temasek's Light's song and I find them rather meaningful. All I can give is the life I lead my life towards school, community and people around me. Temasek has taught that valuable lesson. All i want to say is 'Thank You' to Temasek Secondary School for it has given me a life which I would never want to forget or trade. What lies beyond in the future, let it come by itself. For now, I just want to spend these few days to reflect on the past.

The Temasek Light shall never fade for its spectrum will always shine beyond the distant horizon. It is time to bow out and appreciate what the school has done for me and for me to remember the treasured and precious moments every single day I spent in my school. All because the good things in life never last forever...

This post is insired by "You Raise Me Up" by Josh Groban dedicated to Temasek Secondary School, it's students mentioned in the post and especially to Mrs Ou Yang for transforming the school and bringing it to greater heights.
