Dear batch,
I know hardly anyone comes here anymore, but I'm still going to make a post.
Thank you so much, Batch, for everything. Back in Sec 1 I hardly knew half of you, but it's amazing how 4 years could have done so much to change me, to change us... at campfires, AAs, camps, urban hikes, profi badge courses, it was always Batch that made everything fun and exciting. And striping after striping, Batch never failed to give me a shoulder to cry on and words of encouragement and hope to hold onto. Honestly, I cannot imagine what Guides would be like without all of you.
Every year, we watch the shadows of our seniors who have guided and inspired us fade away. But this year, it's our turn to let go of Rgguides. It's really hard to know that we'll never get to have patrol corners with our patrol, cheer loudly at other schools' campfires, bang on the toilet doors when juniors are showering during Camp, sing Taps at the end of every Guides session... the emptiness is sinking in slowly.
I know there are many things that we didn't do very well, and many problems that cropped up throughout our term, but I'm glad that we stood by each other and held on til the end. I have to say that Rgguides is definitely one of the most significant part of my RGS life, and it has given me many sweet memories to look back on in future. And Batch is definitely my #1 reason for loving Guides.
Although we have now stepped down, I hope the new COH will do us proud, and that our juniors will continue to spread the Guiding light on and on. It's time to put our trust in them, because they have grown so much these four years, and watching them reminds me of how we have grown together during our own 4 years.
I love you all so much, and perhaps it is because I know that our friendship will not die just like that, that I am not feeling as horrible as I thought I would. In any case, there is still AA and possible Urban Hike, let us do our final best for Rgguides and leave (for real) with no regrets.
Lots of love, Bren

jiayou for eoys, then we can have guides chalet!
haha yinleng... you failed in making me stop crying...xD hehe but thankyou for cheering us up k! i love you (:
sigh...after crying yesterday, during farewell, even after i took a nap when i got home..i'm still crying whenever i think of it... gosh i can't believe myself. when i joined guides, i really didn't think that i would be this attached to my CCA, my patrol, and of course, my dear batch...
thank you batch09, for always being 24 shoulders to lean on, 24 people to cry with, 24 lovely sisters in guiding...you all have really brightened up my life! and in your notes you all wrote things like thank you for being enthu, cheery, etc... do you know, i'm only so because there's you all around to make me feel loved and happy... i love you all so much, i really can't express in words how much i want to thank you all for everything you have given me.
i'm also really proud of our sec3 batch, i was so moved by their letter today... and seeing how they've grown, how our sec 1s have grown, and how we have grown.. it's just amazing, how rgguides has become such an important place in my heart. all the memories, from last year's enrolment, ORA discussions, footdrills, patrol corners, AA's, camp, campfires, everything keeps running through my mind again and again...the jokes we've told, the games we've played, the tents we washed during camp, the candles we've painted for ORA...
i know we all feel empty after farewell... even though we already expected it but the tears can't stop... i feel like an idiot, not knowing how to let go and move on... the sec fours have taken such good care of all of us and raffles guides... i regret not cherishing all that more, but batch, let's do our bestest best to live up to their expectations, i believe we can do it... we can last forever, anywhere in this world~
now it's a new guides term, and i hope we'll be able to go far. next year we'll be sec 3s, with new responsibilities and all...so good luck, batchmates! <3
i'm not going to tell you to stop crying since i can't do it myself... but i hope you all will feel better soon...thank you so much raffles guides!
Love, Bren
hey everyone (:
just wanna say that i really appreciate all the effort you guys have put in, and how bonded we've become. i'm so glad i joined guides, although a little later. thanks for all the enthuness and passion and care in striping and in farewell and in urban hike and in enrolment and in every single day (:
i've stopped crying now so yall cannot cry too okay! must show your pretty smiles and wipe away the tears, cos i'm certain our sec 4s will still be a part of us (: lets jiayou and do them proud, and good luck to those who've got new positions, both sec 2s and sec 3s! to those who didn't, you can still put in your best, having a position doesnt define how much you can help in guides, as long as youre a guide at heart (: jiemin, amanda and i will definitely do our best as secretaries (:
p.s. treasurers, must quickly set up batch fund okay! joni hasnt been paid for her flowers, and we needa pay jiemin for the cake (: it's $1.60 per person for the cake.
take care,
yin leng <3
