Farewell


       Just like the oracle in the movie the Matrix said, “Everything that has the beginning has the end”. Now, it is toward the end of Bridging course. And I never expect it will come so soon that it seem I have just walked in our CELC #03-03 classroom yesterday and just seen tutor’s and classmates’ friendly face.

       Chinese people believe that, “In this huge world, we met not because of coincidence, we met because of destiny”. So we should treasure every people in our lives. I still remember my anxious feeling when I try to find my name in the white board after our pre-test. When I found out there were more girls than boys in our class, I knew that I would experience a fairly unique bridging course.
       
        And it is true. Under the lead of monitor Mengnan and assistant monitor Yunsheng and suggestion of “evil consultant” Xiaoxuan, we carried out a lot fun and “healthy” games and activities, such as “please close your eyes at night”, “werewolf” and “guessing number”. And we recorded a lot of funny video of the game losers. At this place, I should say sorry to Jiadong for trapping him so many times in “guessing number”. Besides games, the two outings are both memorable. I still remembered that all of us sitting around next to the sea in the dark sky, eating together in the hawker centre, riding bikes in the heavy rain, having barbecue and the hotpot in RV and waiting for the thunder getting away.

       In addition to all kinds of activity, I also went through a fantastic learning journey that I would never forget. Tutors were amiable and shared a lot of stories with us. They are more likely to be friends than teachers which help reduce the feeling of missing home. I have never thought that class can be fun and relaxed. Especially when tutor brought us some snacks, I hoped I can keep on this bridging course all my life.

       But bridging course does not mean an end. We are still in NUS, in Singapore, in this world. We are still friends. I know that one day we will meet again, all of us.

  1. Dear Longfei,
    Yes, it does seem as if these six months have almost come to the end very fast. It didn't seem like a long time ago when I first met all of you. I have truly enjoyed getting to know all of you; the other tutors have all told me that Class 3 is a very nice class! We've appreciated your liveliness, the goodhumoured banter that goes on in class, the readiness to participate in group activities, and the willingness to help each other. I'm sure you will continue to meet up as a group whenever you can in the coming 4 years. Do keep in touch with us too.
