those numbers im sure
weigh heavily on every single one of the twenty six hearts.
its at times like this
that we're able to look back at all the work we did
and all the mess we pulled through
and realise that we have indeed grown
and we have shone like the brightest shooting star.

i rarely do let my emotions show.
but as the date draws closer and we reach the end of our era,
there is this sense on inevitability,
that though we have been through loads,
we might not stay together after we officially hand over duties.

i saw that disbanding of the second council taking place gradually.
it sucks to know that it'll happen to the third council too.
we came into this diving headlong into
sai-ganging to such extents that we never knew.
bud we emerged as one council.
that has put in its best effort to manage things that were thrown our way.

events that we have been through.
frm working like crap together we learn to cooperate.
frm doing everything by ourselves we learn to delegate and to help out others hen they need it.
we learnt to speak with confidence in front of others.
played a part in how much each of us have grown.
passed our experience on to the new batch of mj leaders
and watched with happiness how they go on to lead mj to new heights.

as the end draws nearer.
can there really be one left untouched by the finality of it all?
