MCSC Farewell and Installation 2011
The event started at 4.00pm sharp, and began with the welcoming of the VIPs, the 6th year members. Each of them had a little ribbon pinned to their chests and were escorted to their seats.
Next up, there was a short video clip prepared by Hansley Liew, a clip to introduce the apparently-late emcees. Due to Blogger's strict limits on video upload size, the clip cannot be uploaded for viewing here. But the video is available for download at the following link :
The event proceeded on smoothly with a farewell speech by the outgoing president, Mr. Lee Jiann Woei, and then to the Installation part of the event. The Installation was planned by Mr. Chan Kok Xian and Mr. Daniel Tham Zen Kuang, and was nothing short of grandly impressive.
Following the Installation, we moved on to the performances. The first dance was led by Mr. Yap Teck Chong, and his team, comprising Mr. Chien Keat Leong, Mr. Chan Yon Quan, Mr. Ang Kientze, and new member Mr. Lee Jiann Woei, fondly known to all as the Wonder G*ys. The second dance was led by our current President Ms. Nicole Thang, her team consisting of Ms. Chia Li Peng, Ms. Shirley Chieng, Ms. Catherine Tan and Ms. Viphavadi Boon. The third dance was led by Ms. Loh Min Xin, and the members of her team are as follows : Mr. Yap Teck Chong, Mr. Soon Wei Lin and Ms. Tan Ee Lin. The performances were coordinated as to build up the atmosphere, and it peaked at the very final, where all the members from the first and second teams stormed the dance floor for a short 1 minute in a Step-Up like manner.
Now that we were done with the Installation part of the event, we moved on to the Farewell. The 6th years were presented with a teddy bear each clad in graduation robes, with badges bearing their names pinned onto their paws, and each holding a unique jigsaw piece designed by Ms. Heng Kheah Lynn's team.
Then it was time for the 6th years' debut. Their representative, Mr. Chai Chan Sin delivered his speech, a very meaningful one, in Chinese. And as a choir, led by Mr. Ng Wen Gen and Ms. Tan Li Fen, with Mr. Charles Chong on the guitar and Mr. Thien Wei Khiong at the keyboard, they gathered and sang to Emil Chau's song "朋友" (lit. "Friends"). Mr. Teng Kok Liang, the previous Media Director of MCSC, too, prepared a short slide show, depicting all the funny moments of their lives here in Volgograd.
Due to Blogger's strict limits on video size, once more, here's the link for download :
As the event slowly came to its end, a dance floor was set up in the hall, and almost all members participated in it. Smiles were abound, and the hall was rocked with the sounds of music, the members' laughter and shouts.
At 7pm, the event was ended, and members returned to their homes, stopping by at designated spots to pick up their dinner.
The 6th Year seniors. You will all be sorely missed.
And here, we have the the outgoing President's Farewell Speech, complete and unabridged :
Dear current 6th year members,
In a month time from today, you will be sitting for your finals. In 2 months time from today, you will be busy wearing your graduation suit and gown. And in 3 months time from now, I won’t be seeing you around here in Volgograd anymore.
Damn time really flies! I could still remember the times where I bumped into some of you, let it be in the groceries stores, by the streets, in hospitals, main building and even during sending laundry. At that time I would say, see ya! It was so easy to say at that time, taking granted that there are still plenty of chances where I would meet you and say the same thing again. Now, this is no more the same case.
How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.
Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetime, is certain for those who are friends.
As we say goodbye, we remind ourselves that farewells are not forever, nor are they the end. They are simply words to say that we will miss you dearly and that we will remember you fondly.Although we may be separated by time and distance in the interim, nothing will diminish the important role that all of you have and always will play in our lives.
I love the simple word hello
It always rings a joyful bell
But one of the saddest words I know
is the oft times tearful word farewell.
With this poem, I will end this farewell speech by wishing you happy adventures, fantastic, amazing experiences and the journey of a lifetime as doctors.It always rings a joyful bell
But one of the saddest words I know
is the oft times tearful word farewell.
By,
Lee Jiann Woei
