today is a sad day. today's emaths test was cancelled and we were so happy to go for assembly. then we sat in the hall for so long and finally, ms leong came in. at first we thought that there was gonna be a bag spotcheck in the classroom block so they sent us to the hall. then we were talking so loudly and no one bothered to tell us to keep quiet. then ms leong came and broke the terrible news to us: jialing passed away. my first reaction: what? you kidding me right? but since it was ms leong who told us this it couldnt be fake. i held jasimah's hand so tightly. i was holding back my tears at that time. then when i saw ee ling, i finally broke down. we all cried like mad. kailing came, rach ong and huimin came too. we all hugged and cried. she was our primary school fren and we all were once very close. and now she's gone. i just cannot accept the fact. it's too sudden. all too sudden. but we all gotta accept this fact. the worst was not us. it was 3N, 2H'03 and table tennis. while we were having summary test, the teachers came to call them out. they broke the news to them and they went away to let it all out. this is so sad. we are sad to lose a cedarian. what actually happened? everyone wants the answer. but ms leong said that the police is investigating. i saw many ppl deep in tears. me including. edith's eyes were so red. wanru hugged all of us and cried together. we were crying so badly that mdm koh saw us. she asked if we would like to write down something for her. she passed me a pen and paper and i scribbled: jialing, we'll miss you. then we all burst out crying. we all have never had this happening to us before. no one could take it. huimin was worst. she was so close with her in peichun. then she just left. she couldn't cry it out. but we told her to if she cannot hold them back. and they rolled down her eyes.
this should be a lesson that we should learn from. life is short. we should treasure it, not waste it. life everyday is a surprise, a challenge. treasure the people around you. treasure whatever you do.
