A Time for Everything

And so, the last day came and went. It has been an emotional last few days. It could be a good thing that I've been so sick with flu and a bad cough, that I had lesser energy to feel the sadness in its entirety.

It's a good thing too, that the BMW Popiah Party has been postponed, cos I definitely wouldn't want to pass my sickness on to some of the brides-to-be, and new mummy! ;)

And for one more, possibly last, time, we were in coordinated dressing again, at the Padang yesterday! The atmosphere was so electrifying when they were about to announce the results of the Youth Olympic Games bid. As if we didn't know the answer already!



And there was the farewell lunch today, with all the department heads and my team as well.




Oh, and I had a little farewell gift from the dept heads. On the pretext of wanting to borrow to "take a look", the BBs later added on this charmer as a surprise. Absolutely love it, will always be reminded of how much we love to shop during lunch hours!


Saying goodbye to some of the greatest people I've come to love has been really hard. Even these chefs call me "Mama".




A lot has happened in the last couple of years I've been here. There were highs and there were lows. There were difficult periods we had to deal with, we overcame them all. And we did it as a team.

I don't need a report card from anyone to tell me how I've fared during this tenure. Because having the following validation is good enough for me. One email from Matt, one ST article of "the Mandarin girls". I think I've done what I first set out to do.

知道他们有我的心， 我就心满意足了。 Ok I don't know which "zhu" or "zu".

Dear all luppies,

The only piece of work that I am proud to present to mama (my dear boss) got to be the poster
that I did for her birthday cum farewell. 40% that I wanna show her how far I had improved on my creativity,
another 60% got to be from my heart to thank her for being patient, kind and most importantly giving chance for me to improve my CS skills.

As she said, change boss doesn't mean change job, I totally agree with both legs and hands.
Though Marina Mandarin to Meritus Mandarin is just a stone throw away, we must make sure our friendship is as strong as stone and no one can thrown us apart.

We must keep in touch, email and stay tune with gossip.

LUP,
Matt

Fark, this is machiam like breakup, crying for days on end. But the beauty of it - we have built a lasting, meaningful friendship.

BBs, LUP MANY MANY!!!
