Farewell ceremony

Today is the day which the Farewell Ceremony is celebrated. Of all of the days I've been through, today was the saddest. If you have never been through all of this, you will never understand why this is sad.

Right after the sixth Fun & Games class, our class monitor called us to line up outside the class. All of us know whats going on. Its the ceremony that every Year 6 student has been through before——the Farewell Ceremony.

When we were in the school hall, we saw all props and things are already putted in place and order. After 20 minutes we reached there, the principal lectured a speech about leaving and being useful to the country and all that stuff. Afterwards, its show time.

But it wasn't relax time for us volunteers. We have to give teachers and the students drinks, yummy food, forks and spoon while they sit there and enjoy the shows that the students prepared.

Here's a list of the shows.

• Dance of Oh! by Girls Generation and We're All In This Together
• Dance of some random Chinese song which I keep forgetting its name
• Solo of the song Tong Hua
• Dance of the song Nobody But You which made me tremble

And pretty much I can remember, that's all of the shows. Although there were only 4 shows, but we got to enjoy the nice fried rice which has eggs and cucumber in it.

After the shows, some random girl from a random class gave a speech about thanking the teachers and all that. Then, we have to sing sad songs about leaving. About 5 people wept.

Afterwards, our school celebrity——Tan Jia Wei, who has won many international and country badminton tournaments, told his story about his training and his tournament story.

Then, the Farewell Ceremony ended. We have to walk around the hall and shake hands with all of the teachers at school, while they congratulated us with short, but meaningful words. 90% of the girls cried, and 40% (including me）of the boys cried, not just because of their iron grip, and the sad song, it's because the thought that we will never get to see our fellow mates and teachers again.

The 5 minutes that most of the people cried, was the saddest 5 minutes I've ever been through.

Afterwards, we sadly walked back class in order, scrubbing our eyes and thinking of memories.
