28 Aug 07, Stormy with Heavy RainIt's Sailor Moon's last day in the office and also her last day in Singapore. My spirit was further dampened with the never-ending heavy downpour. I was thinking that God sent the rain coz he knew I was sad?
We had a little lunch gathering in our office meeting room, munching on french fries and burgers, chatting & snapping a few photos of the group.
The plant (on your right) is an avocado planted by Sailor Moon last November (yes, from an avocado seed in her room). Amazing, I never knew that we could plant an avocado in Singapore.
She gave this to me as a goodbye gift and I felt touch that she entrusted this plant to me. Whenever I arrived home and see this plant, I am reminded of her. Isn't that sweet? Btw, the plant is now named "Monsieur Avocado".
Alright back to her farewell (sorry, I side tracked a bit)... We went to the airport to send her off. Believe me, it wasn't easy. At first, we were laughing and chatting. Then when the final moment arrived to say goodbye, I found myself choking and fighting back my tears.
Sailor Moon had to say this to me "Now Michelle, no tears huh..."
Though I am sad about her departure and will miss her greatly, I am also happy that she's back home, reunited with her loved ones, her family & will be starting a new chapter of her life.
Heck, with the wonders of technology (on spkye phone, messager, email), I'm sure we will stay in touch every now and again.
