I have finally stepped down as Deputy President for Dover Student Council after 8 long months of hard work.. My term in office had great memories even though it was tiring and stressful.. I really enjoyed my time and I'll never ever forget the memories we shared..
Today's Investiture was a great success! I'm really proud of my Incoming EXCOs performance.. It was absolutely fantastic! Great work! OMG... I CRIED! My tears just started flowing while I was hugging my councillors one by one! But.. Haix.. Its like, I've been protecting my councillors for so long, treated them like my babies, spoon feeded them with everything, took care of them, guided them, supported them, then now, I gotta let them go! I just cannot bear to let go of my "babies".. But.. I have to lah! No matter what, they will ALWAYS remain as my babies & I'll always be there to give them my support whenever they need it!
Now... To the "Thanks Giving" section!
To Nicholas, Sumithra, Shahidah, Aida, Elizabeth, Evon, Juliana & Hafiz.

Jon... Even though you didn't say "my" line during your speech, I understand! I hope I've given you enough guidance ever since you joined council. But, remember that I'll be glad to guide you even though I've stepped down. I've passed the baton of running the council to you. I'm putting the council in your hands.
