Even though you've become so old but your funny face will always lighten up our days.
, your weird laughter will always irritate us, your elegant poses will always wow us haha, your eloquent speech will always echo in our mind, your undying enthusiasm will always motivate and inspire us to pursue the common goal =) We guess the space allowed here is just not enough to list down all the good memories with you...

You've done so much for the family and without you, we can't be the way we are now. Our hearts are full of endless gratitude. There's no word that can desribe our feelings for you. Thank you so much for all that you've done Gwen.

We love you, and you know that.

hey everyone, guess what.
as i write this (its the night of the 8 may by the way), its been exactly a month since we experienced some of the proudest moments of our lives. watching the sweetest ip team dance beautifully, gracefully, baby-elephantly onstage amidst all the nervousness and inexperience, staring in awe as the jc team executed their plate dance confidently in all its artistic and green grandeur, the remarkable adrenaline and indescribable feeling of performing together as a team onstage, and the immense euphoria and how we erupted when the results were announced.
those moments will remain as something we treasure for the rest of our lives, probably never to experience again. HAHA OKAY OKAY NO EMO HAHAHA because for now, we can grab the opportunity to share our dances with others through our remaining performances! ((:
this coming week is going to be a hectic one, with dance almost every day. especially for those who are still trying to catch up with work and who have a thousand other commitments, you (and your parents haha) are probably going to feel worried stressed annoyed and tired. if you really really really cannot cope, please do let me know. really. when we say we are a family and we take care of each other, we mean it. tell me and we can find a solution together (: of course, i wish for everyone to dance, because only then is the dance complete, and because we need each and every one of you.
and not to forget, let's enjoy each dance session, cos there're not many left! can count with your fingers the number of times left you know!
remember, after these performances, we'll not get to do these syf dances with the same team of people again.
so enjoy it while it lasts and give it your best shot :D
i love you all
happy vesak day and enjoy the long weekend woohoo
REJOICE MAS SELAMAT HAS BEEN CAUGHT!
