Farewell

How time flies! Five months have elapsed since we came to Singapore and there is only one more week left before we finish our English course. I always know the fact that time is swift. But it is essay for me to ignore, and when I notice the fact, things have passed for a long time, leaving but regrets to me.
I still remember the day when I boarded on the plane flying to Singapore. Because it was the first time that I leave my country, I was both nervous and exited. But no matter what my feelings were, there was a strong point in my mind that I should do my best to learn well. I designed lots of plans to make most of my time. However, when I came to Singapore, I was attracted by the beautiful country. I paid too much attention on the city and put off all my plans. When I suddenly found that I still be the worst in the class, I consoled myself that there was enough time for me to catch up with others. But now, when the ending of English course is just around the corner, I haven’t administered the plan yet. What a pity it is!
What is worse, we will leave each other soon, which I never would like to think about before. I am really glad to make friends with my classmates and tutors. Even though I am not as good as them, they never laugh at me. I can stay with them without shame. We discuss interesting topics in the lesson while the tutor is not looking; we share the food with each other in the classroom even though it is not allowed to eat food there. We also can watch two small kids quarreling with each other sometimes just because of a trivial matter. However, it is going to an end. I wonder what we would do when we meet with others in the future. Will we just give others a small smile, or even treat them as passerby?
Today should be a wonderful time for me. After more than two months’ hard work, we finally finish our research and presentation. I need not to spent more than one hour everyday on discussing what we should do tomorrow; I need not to write the vexing analysis and correct it again and again; I also need not to read the endless articles to illustrate my point with suitable quotations. In addition, Ms. Esther brings many toys to class, and we have play games for a whole afternoon, just like a group of small kids. But I cannot be very happy when I notice that farewell is coming.
I know the only thing I can do now is just treasuring the reminder of the English course. I know I will make lots of new friends after the farewell. Everything has to keep changing. But I am a person who doesn’t like to change; I would like to keep the status quo forever.
But I know it is just my extravagant hope.
