18th of September, which is today, marked the day that i realised that it is the start of a new beginning. And yes, we graduated today. 4 years ago, i thought getting to sec 4 would be like forever. But now i've realise that time really flies. It felt as if it was only a year ago that i got into Springfield Secondary School. And it's very hard for me to part away from the people that i'm really comfortable with.
After a long, tiring, dramatic day at school, we finally had to register our names and proceeded to the school hall for our graduation ceremony. It was a long and dragy one but it was overall fun. Because i was sitting next to Hafiz and Naddy, so we got to talk with each other and make fun of other people. And then, at this point of the time, Naddy just had to mention to me that that the guy who was giving his speech on the stage had his hair like a 'tikus mondok'. I'm not sure what that is in English but it surely reminded me of a joke we used to laugh to about a year ago.
And when the ceremony ended, wah, people got all teary. I didn't want to cry. But after hugging Farah, it made me realised that this is almost the end of our secondary school life. And everytime when i hugged somebody, my words got choked and i didn't get to say what i wanted to them. I cried so hard when it comes to Sheila. She seriously made me so emotional when her words started coming out of her mouth. That girl ar really made me cry so hard that i didn't get to take picture with the whole class. And it was also saddening when i hugged Hafiz. Although we have been friends since primary 1, he still want to see me in sec 5. Wah, we even made a promise to go sec 5 together gether. It really sank my heart to let go of these people.
About the future, i don't know how it will turn out to be. But one thing's for sure is that i am not ready. I'm not yet ready for the whole world. I am still not ready of 'letting go of my mother's hand'. I'm not ready to roam the world freely. I feel as if i still need to hold my mother's hand when crossing the road. Well, i'm sure you get what i mean by that.
Now, i need to get back to my art.
Wah, just when i'm thought i got rid of art.
It came back chasing me.
