Impending Transitions
As time flies and passes like a gust of wind or the ceaseless tides of the ocean, the footprints left behind by friends when they leave the office in the coming months will definitely cause much affliction. However, these pains will have to be beared, and I will not only look back at the moments that left their mark in my life, but also the approaching change in the respective team members. As the familiar leave for greener pastures, greenhorns armed with different abilities and skills will step in to feel their boots.
Some boots cannot be filled. Some of the characters are just too strong and imposing, their imaginary can sometime be felt lingering in the office. However, what is imminent cannot be avoided (Duuh…), and rather than sweat and lament at the leave of individuals who have weaved into our lifestream, we should instead look forward to welcoming the prospects that will set foot into this office. These people, along with those whom you will continue to remain in contact with, will become an integral part of the way you mature. The good, the bad; the beautiful, the ugly. These things that will happen with the people around you, the way you take and handle these things, as well as its influence on your maturing mentality will shape the type of person you become as you prepare to face another epic chapter of your life in university.
And so, as our leader, Ang Keng Kok, creator of the guild the is the ‘House of Flying Daggers’(guess how he practises his art? Yup. Arrow.), another will emerge. This unfortutious outcome will only apply to me, who sits in the sardine of members from the guild. Easy target.
It is not all gloom though, as the newcomers are increasingly more apt and intellectually more capable with the coming generations. An example is my partner, Adrian, who surpasses what most would deem as normalcy. Hailing from RJ, one of, if not THE MOST prestigious (barring from my biasly superior school known none other than Hwa Chong Institution 
)high school, he contains limitless potential to conjure consistent, quality work, day in day out. Having such ability around me is really reassuring. Sometimes, change has its positive points.
Therefore, I’ll be looking forward to that day. Still, its really quite distant……
