Last days are always tough.. how to bid farewell without making it a teary one, or how not to make it seem indifferent in an attempt to hold back your feelings. I like to make everything end on a happy note, if I can help it that is.
Bought some really oishii secret recipe’s “chocolate indulgence” and “chocolate banana fudge” for my colleagues. One of the best cakes I’ve tasted so thought it would make a nice farewell treat for them. Dinner was their treat to LingZhi restaurant…my 2nd time there. The 1st was a treat from them also for my birthday. Maybe coz I like vege just like them so we form good kakis for vegetarian food. Heh.
Not forgetting some really sweet farewell gifts.. Esther got me a crystal handphone accessory and Pat got me a little denim pouch big enough just to hold my wallet, hp and tissue. She couldn’t tahan the way I hold my wallet and hp in my palms whenever we go out for lunch. Hah.
It’s a norm to take pics on last days (I’ve gone through quite a number of last days…).. provided the place holds wonderful memories for me la. I totally forgot about my digi cam when I was in GE and intended to leave as quietly as possible. Haha. No thanks..
As much as I would love to make every farewell a happy one (the “let’s keep in touch okie!” type), there were ironically, countless ones which were sobby and sad. Okie la, I shall stop being sunny and positive. Farewells are always sad la!
The 1st was during my Sec 4 graduation. Sec 4C rockz la..who wouldn’t cry.
Then the other few would be occasions when I send friends off at the airport. Somehow it must be the stupid gates with the immigration police officers standing waiting to check your tickets. Looks like they’re redeeming a ticket to jail, and they’re all set to escort you to jail.. so.. it seemed sadder than usual.
Especially when sharon san left for America on work & travel USA trip.. dam, she went there to have fun, why cry for her argentinnnaaaa~~. Then it was her again when she left for Sydney.
Guess the saddest one for me was when she was sending me off at the Sydney Airport after my tour there. Sighz. Coz my tour ended with my ichiban tomodachi, which means I gotta go back to work, and on the thought that she gotta go back alone to face the bitches, crying was normal. It was a sad farewell to my harry’s pie and krispy crème. Won’t be back there for a long long time coz the air taxes are crazy! Same price as the ticket… madness.
My jap boss wished me good fortune all the way… I thought Chinese new year was here liao. Wahaha.. but.. yes!! I wouldn’t mind good fortune anytime….
