Starts with Goodbye

People are going to hate me for writing this.. But I needed to get it out of my head, heart…

IBP pitch

These past 3 years have been the best and worst of my life. I know it sound cliche but it’s true. I’ve always heard the saying “High school will be the years you’ll never forget”. I finally, really understood what that meant. Don’t pretend that today (26 Feb ’10) wasn’t emotional for you guys.. especially the IBP-ers..

We’ve been through ups and downs, conflicts after conflicts.. I have lost count of how many times we’ve said, either in our heads or aloud, that we’ve had enough.. ‘I’m quitting’. But hey, guess what? We didn’t. We kept pushing through, trials after trials and we did it.

We actually did it. I dunno, maybe the past years had said the same thing, they got through IBP too.. But I honestly feel that for our batch, we have a really close bond with each other. I really do honestly believe that. This parting will be the most bittersweet and heartbreaking partings I will ever face.

Stories

I have never met people like all of you before.. you guys are the most amazing group of people that I’ll ever meet. It’s was a privilege to have been called your friend. Who knows, maybe after graduation, our paths may never cross again. But if that happens, I’m still thankful and grateful that at least I got to experience having the most amazing time of my life with the most amazing group of people. Life goes on after this..

If you know me, nothing is ever complete without a ‘small’ mention of my favorite artist ever, Carrie. As I quote from one of her songs, titled ‘Starts With Goodbye’:

I know there’s a blue horizon,
Somewhere up ahead, just waiting for me,
Getting there means leaving things behind,
Sometimes life’s so bitter sweet.

I guess it’s gonna have to hurt,
I guess I’m gonna have to cry,
And let go of some things I’ve loved,
To get to the other side,
I guess it’s gonna break me down,
Like falling when you try to fly,
It’s sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life,
Starts with goodbye.

I don’t believe in ‘beautiful goodbyes’. Every goodbye hurts. So, I’ll choose to say.. I’ll see you soon..

Lots of love,

Rein <3
