CCR3

One year and one month since AYG, the Asian ‘YOG’

The day we got our costumes. The shrieks of horror when the girls saw the huge flowers and when the guys saw the green balls attached to theirs.

CR3

July has gone. The day draws near.

Refreshments we’ve got it all: coke, cookies, kaya bread, mamee noodle snacks.

10 days to actual. So near, yet so far. The truth has sunk in; it’s the world we will be showing.

CCR4

Last CCR. Scared and excited.

Practice. Everyone’s tired. YOG and all, life does o on. Tests and homework does not come to a standstill. Waking up for school the next day is torture, but a art of us secretly enjoy it. We do have something to talk about in class.

ACTUAL. YOG OPENING CEREMONY.

Happy. Scared. Excited. Anxious. Exhilarated. What can I say? Words can never describe the feeling we had, walking down the bridge to standby position.

Running across the pool of water to get to the black staircase.

Kneeling down, praying hard

For everything to go smoothly, whispering all the best to everyone around.

Looking at the six big screens behind us playing videos form the chapter SOS

Watching the row of signalers holding flags, signing SOS,SOS, SOS…

Waiting for our music.

Running onto the floating platform, the Singapore skyline behind us

Showing the world

Making history

Creating memories

Dancing

To our hearts content

And I know, the memories we will keep in our hearts forever and ever
