Goodbye
today is one of the saddest day in my 2005. a group of us have sent kitty off at the airport, after a farewell bbq and overnite games at justin's place. it has oso marked his last day here, after working in this small island for the last five years. each of us gave him our small wishes, and mua is the most useless. upon shaking our hands, kitty leaned forward and gave me a long hug and that was the point when the tap was turned on. hehe. this is disgraceful. well... he is after all a close colleague and like a bro to me. giving valuable advice and encouragement when i am at the lowest lowest point in my life.
seeing me trying very hard to hold my tears and nodding my head profusely to give him the assurance i will take care of myself, he gave me a worried look. hehe. so disgraceful again. he has oso lingered a few moments more to tok to us, coz all of us duno when we will see each other again. when he went into the custom area, the whole group of us waved frantically at him. penny waved so hard that she almost sprained her wrists, and xinyi's hand got entangled with her hair. *haha.. this is a joke*
juz before he was going to walk out of our sight, he stopped and lingered for a few moments more, before he finally disappeared.
hmm. i really HATE farewell. no matter how hard i try to be nonchalant, i always break down. not good to be too sentimental you know? problem is, i seems to treasure everythg and everyone around me too much sometimes. farewell like this will affect me more than anyone. well... after all, i was the only weakling who sob rite? the rest, though sad, din react as bad as me. it was so bad that i was still tearing during lunch. sigh. damn. hell no. and stupif stupif roi has to choose that time to tease me, asking me why the hell am i crying. grrr...
lin's farewell wasn't so bad coz we din see her off, and she is after all a local, so it seems like she will only be away for a period of time. wil's one was not so bad coz he will only be away for a year. but for kitty, his home is not here. so it's juz a matter of time that he will call it a day.
watever it was, it has been a good one year that we have since hanged out together for work or play. let's hope he get posted back to singapore to work, or may his wish be granted, that he gets to fly around and drop by to visit us for a day or so. like wat penny said, hope he reaps lots of money over in bangkok and buy a BIG house for the rest of us to bunk in when we go bangkok for holidays in the future.
hehe.

*Sob sob* I am kinda glad that I didn't (have a chance to ) see Kitty off, I think I will cry too. Like you, I feel a very close bond to Kitty. He's been a really good buddy, and we often talked late into the night. He was there for me at the lowest point in my life too, and was never shy with lending me a shoulder to cry on.
My darling SK, I am not sure when I will ever return to SG for good, but for sure, I will try to visit you all as much as I can, OK? And when I do visit, let's go to BKK and look Kitty up, we can all live in his big house! Like Debra said before, afterall he's Prince Kril wat!! Cheer up, babe!
