Canopies and Drapes

I will not lie. Rag is not easy.
I will not lie. Rag is trying.
I will not lie. Rag is testing.

I will not lie. Rag is special.

Paint. Thinner. Brushes. Dance. Nuts. Screws. Bolts. Spanners. Screwdrivers. Costumes. Contact glue. Scissors. Mounting. Ladders. Lorry. Mosiacs. Stairs. Tarpaulins. SIS. Bottle Caps. Cans. Wash the cans. Rulers. Godfather. Plans. Engine canteen. Durians. Seniors. 5am. Temasek. Eusoff. 12pm. Budget. Slotted angle. Lanterns. Lions. Red Bull. Beauty. Beast. Rag room. Sleeping Bags. Megatron. Narnia. Pushing. SRC. Touch up. Morning. Track. PeggyRosieCalefareDanny

and then at last... at long last, you see it.

When it ends, you cry. You cry because you had been part of something. Rag had become you, and you had become Rag. It is a bond that no one else knows, and please, dear Ragger, take comfort in that.

When it ends, you cry. You cry because you know that your Rag was special, that it was yours. No one else can claim that. Dear Ragger, sleep soundly with this.

When it ends, you cry. You cry because of all the memories, that will forever live on in that faulty camera in your head. Dear Ragger, I am glad to have been in those pictures with you.

When it ends, you cry because it has ended. Dear Ragger, I am blessed to be here with you, here at the end of our Rag.



To the Raggers, this is the most beautiful place in NUS.
