" In the years to come
Will you think about these moments that we shared

In the years to come
Are you gonna think it over
And how we lived each day with no regrets

Nothing lasts forever though we want it to
The road ahead holds different dreams for me and you

In a year from now
Maybe there'll be things we'll wish we'd never said

In a year from now
Maybe we'll see each other
Standing on the same street corner though it rains

Each and every end is always written in the stars
If only I could stop the world
I'd make this last "

- Say Goodbye - S Club 7 .

It was normal to see guys shouting , pushing and trying to kiss each other , girls sitting in a corner , gossiping , laughing and tidying up their hair . These weren't an uncommon sight . Guys with hair long enough to touch their eyes , and some hidden talents - Mingfong who got on the newspaper , Jerald who secretly can play the piano(!) and perhaps even some Dota/Blackshot pro hidden amongst us . Girls with eyes twice the size of mine , locks of hair tied up in a fashionably sensitive way . This is what you get when you step inside 2E3's classroom .

And of course , not forgetting , what 2E3's well known for - being hyper . Never once was there a time a teacher could go through a worksheet of some sort without being interupted . If you truly take a look around , our class is filled with jokers like Yihong , Zhenglei , just to name a few .

However , over the months , these features of 2E3 have somehow translated into negativity . Arrogant , haughty , noisy , cocky , lazy . These are words commonly associated with 2E3 . All I can say is that we're a misunderstood bunch . Somehow , some teachers seem to have equated being hyper with being arrogant and cocky . Yes, I would admit that we're too noisy at some times and some , not all , of our students have no idea when to be serious and keep quiet and when to talk , but doesn't the fact that we've maintained reasonably well educational attainment suggest that we've studied as hard too ?

Of course , days in school aren’t totally smooth sailing . Conflicts , quarrels , splitting into cliques and things like these happens every now and then . I’ve had my fair share of down moments too . I recall of a time when I sobbed hard at school , but looking back , there was so many people who were there for me , all along . I must say I really have wonderful people leading me in my life , guiding me and leading me in life , teaching me moral values and help me get through every obstacle I met . Thank you guys , really , I wouldn't have made it without all of you . Academically , I’ve never been a strong student . Always average , or below average . But friends and teachers were always there to guide . Conduct wise , hahaha I wasn’t anywhere near top-notch either . Dentention class was something I should have been frequenting , but didn't because the punishments weren't given out in the end . I’ve skipped a couple of classes too :x These are definitely not things that I’m proud of , but yeah , they’re small pieces of puzzles that somehow fit snuggly and formed the cosy parts of life in 2E3 .

A big hug to Yingying , Xueying and Vanessa , for making my experience in 2E3 such a unique one . You guys are the ones I spent bulk of school time with . Will never forget our stupid jokes , insane gossips and our endless failed attempts to study during breaks . And of course , for keeping notes for me whenever I wasn‘t in school , teaching me stuffs and being such awesome friends (: .

Not forgetting the teachers as well. They’re a cool bunch too. I mean, where else would you find teachers who own their students in Dota , or laugh at the pictures we posted on Facebook ? Where else would you find teachers gossiping with students or teachers who are always there when you're down ? Fun aside , they’re passionate as well . Always so patient and willing to arrange consults with us .

Looking back on the days in 2E3 , good or bad , the memories remain close to my heart . From Day 1 of school to the last day in school , so, so many things have happened and we’ve braved through them all as a class , as friends and as individuals . Words are never adequate to express my feelings . And I guess I do love life in Greendale , especially 2E3'2010 afterall . To sum it up, we’ve grown, and we’ve matured . We represent the faces of joy and hardwork . We've played hard , worked hard and studied hard . We are the different flavours of life .
