Warning: This post is going to be pretty sad? Idk think of a right word. But yeah you get the picture. So skip it if you want. (:

So yeah, sec 4 farewell today. Was quite fun I guess. :D I love my batch more and more by the day. :D Think I really bonded with them quite a bit over all these times :D
Mr Ang came! :D So it was like a combined farewell for him as well. Talked a lot; we've got lovely (6-people) batch pictures with him :D Hope he uploads them.
Everything was fun and okay lah generally. Until like the last part where everything got really sad and stuff I thought the seniors were going to cry. ): And I swear I was going to, too.
Like what Ili said, I really hope that wasn't the last time we're going to see you guys. YOU GUYS MUST COME DOWN FOR OUR GAMES NEXT YEAR! :D

So yeah, here it goes.

Dearest Sec 4 seniors, I know I have never been close to you guys. But yeah, believe it or not, you guys still make up a small part of my journey in rgsbasketball. I know I haven't been a really awesome junior who can play well and everything, but you guys are still willing to help me and teach me and scream at me and give me chances. Thanks for all that. Thanks for the encouragements too. They are really, really appreciated. But yeah! It's okay. All of you must join back basketball next year. And our batch will join back next next year, then we can play together again :D Yeah, kinda make up on my part for all the opportunities and memories lost and missing.

MR ANGGGGG! Really, you've been an awesome coach. You've done so many things for us that you won't really expect a coach to do. And most importantly, you were really the one who instilled that basketball spirit in us. And yes, our batch has been exceptionally close to you. Though I'm not as close, but slowly, the relationship builds up. Really hope you won't forget us, forget rgsbasketball and (heehee) especially our batch. Because we won't ever forget you! We promise to train hard, we promise to get that champion trophy. Thanks for every single little thing you have done for us. We'll leave and live that rgsbasketball tradition!

Now, rgsbasketball is in our hands, batchmates. Promise me, no matter what junk circumstances we go through, we will still be as one, united. I know, there are so many changes that sometimes, we are trying so hard to find back that rgsbasketball spirit that had been so prominent in the past. With so many changes, we really have to salvage whatever that is left, and continue living and leaving this legacy. RGSBASKETBALL SPIRIT CANNOT DIE HERE!
Cos, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going.
And no matter what happens, we know we still have each other to rely on. Cos we'd always be there for each other.

rgsbasketball, leaving behind a legacy. ♥

希望，它是人生中最耀眼的星星，黑暗中的一道曙光，照亮冷漠的天空、失落的隧道。人们不能没有它，因为它同时也是生命的泉源，是人们活下去的原因。
希望是什么？它是在人生的低谷中选择相信，选择战斗到底。它是信任，信任一天天空终究会放晴。它是坚持，无论发生什么事，不愿意受到任何的干扰。
每个人都需要希望。你的希望的源头又是什么呢？我的是救主耶稣，所以我要与你们分享一首歌。
(Hope; it is the brightest shining star, a ray of light in the darkness, which brightens cold skies and dejected trails. Humans cannot do without it, as it is the source of life, why humans decide to stay alive.
What is hope? It is how one decides to believe and fight till the end during life's deepest and darkest valleys. It is trust, trusting that one day, the skies will again turn clear. It is persistence; no matter what happens, unwilling to be disturbed.)

Anyway, I saw this guy who had been once down with stroke and thus rendered speechless (literally) currently.
You might be thinking, people like this are everywhere.
But no, this guy is old.
He doesn't have any family members to run back to.
He only got himself to fend for himself.
I think he's really brave.
A warrior; true warrior.
Really, it seems however hard life tries to get him down, it fails.
He never stopped hoping, believing and fighting.
And opposite him, beside me, was this cute little boy; barely three.
It's a new type of hope.
The hope of life.
I always believed new born infants were streams of sunshine that shine like rays of hope.
That's hope for you.

每个人都需要希望。你的希望的源头又是什么呢？我的是救主耶稣，所以我要与你们分享一首歌。
Everyone needs hope. So what's your source of Hope? Mine's in Jesus Christ, thus I want to share a song with you all.

His Glory Appears - Hillsong United, Faith + Hope + Love

You gave me hope
You made me whole
At the cross
You took my place
You showed me grace
At the cross where You died for me

And His glory apprears
Like the light from the sun
Age to age He shines
Look to the skies
Hear the angels cry
Singing Holy is the Lord

Goodnight, there's morning training tomorrow.
