And it wasent until this sentence that got me thinking...
"Darryl, you have regretted enough in your life, i just hope you wont have to regret anything again."
And i knew that, something isnt right..as i was my door step about to leave holding my workpass and uniform preparing to go to work..i stood there i think.
In the end i guess my heart got the better of my mind, and decided to head back into my house and changed into something nice for prom.
My workplace manager was not happy about me having to do a last min cancel and didnt hesitate to fine me a amount of $55.
Looking at the msg got me thinking...is this prom really worth the $55 im going to pay.
I didnt know...but i knew that i would know once its over.
Well, i knew some of my frens were feeling disappointed about me not going to prom so i thought i would give them something like a surprise...and i hope i did hahaa
and to the people who were disapointed..forgive me...
But end of the day prom was great i get to see many beautiful and charming people..something that i dont see everyday...everyone were so joyful and the activities we did were fun and made me feel no regrets at all.
Dinner was nice...the music was nice...and the phototaking with frens and schoolmate was pleasant..the only thing unpleasant about this prom was...knowing the fact that this might be the last time seeing each other...but i hope thats not the case.
As i stepped out of the hall to get some fresh air...i looked at my frens smiling so wide and laughing and i cracked a small smile as well, thinking about all the time we smiled and laugh during the past.
And i look around the hall..
nothing has changed since day 1..
this was the venue where everything started..
secondary 1 i came in here with my sister to hear the first principal speech
secondary 2 we came here at 6 in the morning to prepare to go to malaysia with our class
secondary 3 this is the place where we played dodgeball during the memorable sportscamp 2012
secondary 4...the place where i see my frens smile and laugh as though we had a long day ahead of us.
These thoughts...the venue....it was a place worth looking about..as this is the place where my memories was made and i thought...prom...where else to hold it than the place where everything started.
Hotel venue has no fond memories at all..
Huge ballroom holds no memories as well..
i guess the true meaning behind prom was ending a long novel at where it all started.
Thats it where memories can settle.
Overall prom was amazing..and even though it wasent as good as other school's prom..but that is what makes damai special..
We dont need to spend so much money on veunues....food....clothes...
Money doesnt buy memories...
It is the company and the things we do that creates these fond memories..
And ofcos spending time with my PTTC frens..is worth a million dollars..
Yes $55 isnt worth to go to prom tonight..
but $55 for the memories during prom?
i would like to buy more if i could..
thank you teachers and friends who came and helped made this prom possible.
And when people ask about where my prom was held in the future..i wouldnt say "my school hall" or " in school"...
i would simply reply them with...
"the place it all started from."
Thank you damai.
i'll post the photos tmr :) in the mean time goodnight everyone i wont be dreaming tonight..as my dream has been dreamt this evening
These are my greats friends..schoolmates and classmates..the people i has completed the journey with me and i am happy to be able to see them once again. :')
And ofcos...this is my family...the ones that were with me since day 1..we have grown so much we didnt even notice. I can seriously say that this is my essence of my secondary school life..a part of my life i would nvr forget...the past memories are uncountable. And i would just like to thank you guys again..you have no idea how important you guys are in my life :') i wish that this isnt the end of the road for us. thank you.
