There were a lot of things Henrietta could do - swimming, violin, piano, writing, pranking and school. Yet, two months into 2018, she couldn't keep the Benriesan Socialis from drifting apart slowly. She just couldn't. And with PSLE approaching, she began to struggle to maintain a healthy balance, especially with her lack of prank pulling. Yet, she still had one more prank to pull before she left primary school.

Two years of separation could really do something to best friends. Eleanor was coping just fine with school, more serious than previous years, more studious, but she missed getting up to pull crazy pranks. She longed to just pull off something small, maybe to show that she wasn't losing her touch. With an email in her inbox, she knew exactly what to do.

More than anything, Netanya missed Lynn. In some way, she had tried the hardest to become close to her. Of course, it was undeniable that Lynn would move on to secondary school and she did. Then, Netanya couldn't decide, WGS or AOTA? Lynn and friends or writing? DSA weighed down on her hard, harder than most. Plan #218. Maybe it would help make up her mind. Just maybe it would help.

Primary 6 was a dull year, to Vera at least. No pranks nor fun, just school, school and more, much more school. Ugh. Plan #218? Well, that could interesting but she wanted to do plans 1 through 250, thank you very much. There wasn't much time for prank-playing though, unless she wanted to miss some important, maybe even life-saving, lessons.

Time. That was Ann's biggest problem. Not boredom, not DSA, not exams, like her friends. There wasn't enough time, PSLE was too soon. She would have to leave her 6R family. Not enough time for dance. Dance. Dance. Dance. It was on her mind everyday, all day. There wasn't enough time. There would never be. She didn't want PSLE to ever arrive.

Kaitlyn was coping fine. Better than all the other Socialis members at least. She had always been able to cope very well when it came to school, exams and stress. Or maybe it was only a cheerful, calm facade. Actually, she wasn't very sure whether she was coping perfectly or if she was numb and cold on the inside. This frightened her.

2018 was the worst. Isabel was plagued by two monkeys, two immature monkeys. She was serious, snappy and irritable. To her, she did not find being immature a good coping mechanism at all. It only worked for some annoying people, she supposed. Yet, she was still a Socialis member with a secretly mischievous side and bound by her oath. And her red lobster cherry cheeks.

A new start, haha. Secondary school had hardly been a new start for Lynn. Firstly, most of the people from her previous school were also at HGS. In addition, she missed her favorite juniors, they always found a way to help her pull through. And... they had been there for her more than her "friends" had been, through all the drama surrounding 2017.
