Friendship Week 2009

I don't know how many schools do it, but my school organises Friendship Week every year. It's during that week that we broadcast song requests, take myriad pictures, send notes and sometimes, gain new friends. At the end of the week, there will be a slide show of pictures that we have taken, followed by a sing-along session with songs that go all out to make the seniors and some juniors cry.

The people behind the scenes are evil, we know. We aim to make them cry. But I ended up tearing myself. -.-

Our school of 600-plus students stood side by side during the sing-along and belted out song after song with our arms linked to each other. We ended up scaring the teachers, I think, because when I turned around halfway through a song, not a single teacher was to be seen in the auditorium. =D

This year's Friendship Week was extra special to me because my friend and I were put in-charge of the slide show. It wasn't perfect, I'd admit (there were some technical errors. -.-), but we DID spice it up. Our songs were better, we were more 'hardcore' (we screamed into the mic at the beginning asking, "ARE YOU READY?!" the way bands did before a show! Teachers ain't gonna be pleased with us. =p) and out of sheer awesomeness on our part, we even managed to squeeze in some pictures of The Click Five!

The whole school went crazy over it! I'll bet anything the teachers know nuts who they are though. Darn ... Talk about killjoys. LOL. But of course, I'm still glad that most of my teachers aren't horrendously medieval. x)

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
