LOVES TIP <3
Excerpt from my reflections:
"18 different people came together for the very first time, for the very first TIP meeting. 18 people, from different walks of life, sat together in a circle, waiting for their turn, waiting for their turn to self-introduce themselves. Strangers soon became acquaintances. Acquaintances soon became friends. Friends soon became soul mates.
We started out meeting up only because of rehearsals; soon it became a norm to have dinner together after meetings. And now, we meet up just because we want to. The friendship we forged throughout this programme is priceless. Friendship among the Hwa Chong TIPPERS, friendship among all our Taiwan buddies, friendship among TIPPERS from other schools, will all be cherished."
"As I put an end to this reflection, and an end to this programme (but not to the friendship that we forged), I would like to say that the only thing I regret about this programme is that we cannot relive it again."
