goodbye, pretty ladies.

HELLO CHOIR.

i know i didnt have a(nother) chance to give a lovely speech to you girls just now, but i really want to thank you all for one of the most amazing nights of my life. from every moment of your planning to every second of the night, i knew that so much had been poured into organising this for us. and we really want to tell you that we appreciate it so very much.

thank you for the wonderful scrapbooks and the hugs and the smiles and the songs and the pictures. it's been four years of memories jampacked into one emotional night (though i didnt really cry) and it will be for each and every one of you girls too, soon.

i've had a great time with the committee leading the mgchoir, and there's so much to learn from each other. the most sincere and heartfelt thanks to the mgchoir committee 0809 for being awesome (of course) and giving your best to the choir.

ellissa, you're extremely long-winded but that's what makes you who you are. you think you have big shoes to fill, but actually you have pretty big feet too (: have faith in yourself, have faith in your committee, have faith in the choir because that's what/who you're going to be leading.

ruth, i know the heart of yours isnt done with the choir yet, and i know you will continue doing everything you can for everyone you meet. support ellissa and support every girl in the choir, and remember to turn off the lights and aircon in the chapel and yell at the choir for not arranging the pews properly. i know you'll enjoy it (:

yannting, you remind me of myself, i've told you this before. you're going to lead the choir to even greater heights with ellissa and ruth and the rest of the committee, i know it. and remember, keep the passion, because it's rare (:

daphne + rachael, congratulations, you two have gotten the hardest job of all (in my opinion), but i know you two will handle it well. (: support each other and work together, and remember not to lose any money or scores (tsk tsk tsk).

rachel fits + lee khim, you two may think that it's impossible to take over violette+christine, and of course you girls wont be able to. you'll take on their roles and continue growing in it, so that the choir will bloom under your guidance.

christina, marian, christie, michelle, siying, maria, weylynn, sarah, just because i grouped you all together doesnt mean youre too insignificant to be listed individually. it's because i just want all of you to know that, by working together, you all are going to be the ones who impact the choir the most, by impacting each individual girl who enters and leaves. i have faith in you girls. (:

it's going to be a rollercoaster ride of emotions, but it's at the end of the ride, that you'll really wish you could go on it again.

i know,
because i do.

all my love, and all of God's blessings.
liz.
