and it's just incomplete without you

Today was the last day of school, and the entire year of my sec one life, but it felt incomplete. Like there's a missing portion, but I think you know what I'm talking about. The whole, entire, freaking year was really short. We missed a lot of things this year due to H1N1, mostly. Which is just. Sad. And totally depressing.
Arts fest was a blast. Today was our turn to sell stuff in the canteen, and, it was cool. We made a sale to Claire Mok at our booth (Kai Yan refuses to let me post the details D:) AND OMG SHE SAID SOMETHING HILARIOUS. Let me put it this way, it was just extremely amusing, the way she said it and the name she mentioned. Then someone else went to buy another for Claire Mok hahah. We ran around grabbing people and getting them to buy. And now Xiao Yun is sure that I'm a good salesperson, just because I managed to convince Ariel to buy another 2 more shuriken bookmarks (bringing hers to a grand total of 6). Apparently the iPod keychains sold really well, especially the orange ones (hahah i was smart enough to buy mine first). Vanessa got Celeste to buy something, I'm not sure what. And then at one point of time we waited at the foot of the spiral staircase ambushing people to drag back.
Looking back, I think this year has really been emotional for many people *ahem* and also quite upsetting. I totally understand, but understanding really doesn't help or do anything. Kind of like Phyllis telling me that action helps, not reflection. I guess "emotional attachment" would be a pretty good guess as to why people are upset. I mean, seriously, this year has been the most different year in my life. Different, in reference to past years where I would be happy on the last day of school. I guess this year's comes out of being too sad about missed chances, and ignored days.
Everyone's upset about the last day of school.
I'm upset about the last day of school.
Edit:
I totally agree with this quote from Xiao Yun's blog. I deleted the bracketed stuff.
This year has been a weird/fun/exciting/hilarious/stressful year for me. It's like I learnt loads of new stuff and like had loads of fun in between them all. Like all the jokes we shared, laughing at our stupidity, senior's lame jokes and weird antics, sharing secrets, having heartfelt convos and even just competing to see who heard the ncc song more.
Oh man Xiao Yun you just hit the nail on the head. :/
