Aqua!

I was reading Haowen's blog. His latest entry probably sums up what I've been thinking for quite a while. About Aqua, about my beloved HAT, about what we have done.

It's been a while since we have stepped down. And actually, the way we devolved our positions to our juniors and separated from each other was rather casual - no long letters of thanks, no tears, no hugs, no emotional reminiscence. I guess, we felt that we would still see each other in school anyway so there was no need to feel so sad about the whole matter.

But after Xiuming's birthday celebration and then Aqua winning the much coveted NE trophy stirred up intense feelings of nostalgia and sadness. I feel sorry for having left a HAT that means so much for me and sorely miss those good ol' days we once had together.

It sounds embarrassing but...I miss Suihang's almost nightly calls to babble about the what-to-do list. I miss listening to Haowen and Xiuming squabbling with each other and bullshitting like no one else's business. I miss those lame jokes. I miss staying in school late to prepare house stuff together. I miss the online exclusive HAT conversations. Guys, I miss you so!

It's sooooo mushy that I might as well save it for someone else. *coughs* But you guys really, really, really have been great friends to me and mean much to me!

We worked hard for this Cup...and now I shall look forward to witnessing my juniors holding the Cup high once again next year. And I shall hope my juniors have LOTS of fun and laughter together, like I once did with my HAT too!
