So its FINALLY happened

I've passed my duties down! (Congrats to Harvey and the new RC committee of 2009/2010!) You know, I'm not as sad as I thought I would be..

You see, at first, I wanted to pass down my duties by the 30th of June (you can see I'm already past my deadline). I didn't think of how I would feel, or how it would happen, or what would happen after that. Then, I was invited for the band handing down ceremony. I saw Atiqah cry after she handed her duties down to Zaifi.

It hit me then that passing down my duties may not be as easy for me(emotionally, of course. Physically, I just have to pass the whole file and etc to Harvey and say congrats) as it seemed before. I still remember when I joined RC in form 2(Melissa's year) and was blur as... well, a younger version of me.. I didn't register for duties because duties were rare back then. The first RC meeting that I went for was a practice session where they were going to choose marchers for Annual Parade. It was at HQ and I remember it clear as day. We were all standing in rows and following commands and etc. They picked the older ones first, then Melissa looked at me and was like, "her marching okay, i think can kua" (and i remembered thinking 'of course-la okay, I was from band you know??') But now of course, I know that I wasn't actually very good back then... XD

Then when the time came for interviews and my name was listed, I went for the interview not knowing what the hell was going on. They wrote all the posts on the blackboard and was like, pick one post that you would like to hold. At that point, I wasn't very sure what a section leader or an asst section leader did, so i didn't dare pick those posts. Pandai-pandai, I bluffed, saying that i wanted to be secretary because I was good at writing. (actually, it was because I didn't want to pick treasurer( didn't like keeping money back then), didn't dare to aim higher than secretary(I'm not that perasaan, only form 2 k?) and also cuz I didn't know what the other posts were for, and was afraid that if I picked those posts someone would call my bluff...
Kononnya I was good at writing la, but I managed to emit the fact that I didn't like to write very much. Then a friend of mine(who was in form 5 at the time came to me and told me, "Aiyah, you won't get it la...') so I thought, no hope d, nevermind. But shock of all, I managed to get Asst. Secretary... Not bad...
And so begin my rise and dedication to the society... I really love RC, even til today. I've devoted a lot of time to it, (just ask my mum how many times she's scolded me for being too active) but I found that its the one society where I belong, where I fit in, which fits my nature...
I thought that passing on would be hard on me because after all the time and devotion to the society, I finally would not be needed anymore... I would just become another part of Unit 9's history.. But now, I think maybe that's not so bad anymore, and I'm taking it fairly easy. Harvey will make a good president, Grace and Su-Lin will be great assistants, and I have full trust in Jing Yee, Carolyn and Yuan Sin as well as the rest of the committees. So I have no worries.
Did I also mention that I'll be joining a VAD? Of course, after SPM la.. This means that I can still contribute to the school's RC society by doing whatever I can, seeing as I'll still be an RC member..
Okay, I know this feels like "my life story" or whatever, but you didn't actually have to read it if you didn't want to....And besides, its my blog, I can write whatever I want. Helps me relax, by writing everything down...

Ta for tonight, be back with more.. (obvioulsy not on this topic)
