-Now Just A Prefect At Heart-
Last year my friends and I were elected and chosen as the morning session prefects for the year 2006-2007. We did our best to serve the school and now, today, we are officially retired. Wow, RETIRED. I never thought I would be using that term anytime soon. But today during assembly was the official handover to the new batch of prefects.
Being a prefect was fun for me. I never really viewed my service in the prefect board as burdensome, rather, as an opportunity to serve the school and make a difference. Along the way, I made lots of friends and it was such a pleasure to be on the same organisation as they are. The committee members before us elected me as the Assistant Secretary. I am very much content with what they have entrusted me to do and there was never a time that I wished for a higher post. The other committee members of my batch are:
Lee Teck Siong - Head Prefect
Lai Yen Hua - Male Assistant Head Prefect
Ting Ming - Female Assistant Head Prefect
Cindy Chia - Secretary
Me - Assistant Secretary
Lim Yen Sia - Treasurer
Dexter Lee - Head of Committee (HOC) of PA System
Samuel Lim - HOC Welfare
Lim Jia Seng - HOC Safety and Patrol
Kelvin Tan - HOC Cleanliness
Chan Ning Jian - HOC Assembly
Suria Melanie - HOC Decoration
Nancy Chan - HOC Gifts/Prizes
Liu Sze Wei - HOC Banquet
Tay Guan Phing - HOC Discipline
I really believe that we have made a significant difference in the school, even the teachers say so! Lolz. The best part of the committee members was that we were already good friends even before we became prefects. So it was really easy to work with each other as we have already established a good relationship among each other. Sure we had our ups and downs, but the important thing is that we get through each trials together. During the whole time I ran into a few problems regarding the prefect board. And I found it very comforting about the fact that I can rely on my friends who are also in the committee to lend a hand. I always turn to Teck Siong and Jia Seng to help me and they always do. Always. Along with the rest of the committee members.
Our achievements? Well, there are plenty. I would clasify some of our achievements as a history-making action that we took. For example, we are the very first batch of prefects in over 20plus years to come up with the prefectorial board's logo and motto. The logo came from Teck Siong and the motto, me. Lolz. Apart from that, we were the first batch to have our very own prefect's room, which was later removed from us to house the lab apparatus (due to the whole fire incident). And Teck Siong came up with a new system for the prefects which is the demerit system. It was introduced to help improve the prefects' attitude and discipline, and it works. Then, according to Mr Gilbert, the PK HEM, now more of our students are wearing their neckties properly, thanks to us prefects! There are many more of our achievements, and the ones mentioned above are among the many. Nevertheless, I am very proud of all of my friends' dedication and achievements as prefects. Today we had our "supposedly" last meeting together. And we took that opportunity to take some crazy pictures.

So even though we're retired prefects, we are most definately not retired as friends. I love my darling friends and I enjoyed spending every second with them, including marching in the rain with them once! Lolz... I am going to miss being a prefect, so I am very glad for the opportunity to be one!
