I thought July was the month for goodbyes. <\/p>\n
I said goodbye to the States, and to the nice people that I met there, not knowing if I would see them in Singapore or ever again. I said goodbye to my hao jie mei, wondering what would happen when we see each other in a long one year’s time. As I was helping my juniors with their exchange to Aarhus, it felt like I was saying goodbye to them, and it reminded me of how I<\/strong> said my goodbyes a year ago<\/em>.<\/p>\n July came and went. Then August came. And then I said more goodbyes. Goodbye to my juniors, who were leaving, at almost the same time as I did a year ago. Goodbye to a good friend zyl and yh. Goodbye to yt. Goodbye to kie. Goodbye soon to yw and yx. And in 2 weeks time, goodbye to my freedom! :shake:<\/p>\n I hate saying goodbyes. I get too emotional and choked-up sometimes haha. I hate saying goodbyes sometimes because I don’t know if I would ever see the person ever again. If I know I’m seeing the person again, and I have a definite time as to when I would see the person again, then I’m ok. I would be sad but at least it’s bearable\/manageable. But if I don’t know when I would see the person again, then it’s sad. Ok lah some of the people that I’m saying goodbye to I’m not super close to them. But we had some fun memories together. And in the case of my freedom, confirm guarantee + chop i won’t ever see it again! haha<\/p>\n ok lah I also don’t know what’s the whole point of this post. I’m just sad that the people whom I know for a short while but who have left footprints in my heart are leaving. I’m just sad that I probably won’t see them ever again even though Singapore is so small. I’m just sad that in 2 weeks time I have to join the corporate world and work my ass off for the rest of my life. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I thought July was the month for goodbyes.
