    Miss Xianie's Farewell (Long overdue!=p)

    Bella's back to update in my blog for all my dearies...

    Mentioned in one of my previous post that my colleague Miss Xianie is leaving DT. Last Friday was her last day in DT and I've decided to planned a farewell party for her. Felt like that day of my life was like really dedicated to her cos' I only spent the whole evening and night with her but also during lunch time.

    We met up with the Morganies to have lunch at a rather famous fish bee hoon stall known as Ka-Soh Fish Head Bee Hoon. They actually sell really nice cze char there. We ordered quite a lot of food sliced fish bee hoon, δΈ‰ζžε’Œη²‰ (fried sam lou horfun),prawn paste fried chicken,oatmeal prawns,Toufu with vegetables and sambal kangkong...Yummy. I didn't really eat a lot though cos' didn't have much appetite that afternoon.

    (Oh and our failed continuous shots in office and pantry before I went back to client's place! hahax..=p)

    After lunch it was back to my client's place to rush my work so that I can leave earlier that evening since I'm the one who booked the place and stuff. Managed to pull out at around 515pm. All of us were like suppose to meet at 615pm at City Hall MRT so that we can proceed to Hog's Breath for our dinner by 630pm since I booked it as that time. Ended up I was like the only one to reach here on time. Zujia came slightly later and I decided to just walk over to Chijmes with Zujia first. We waited and waited and waited...and it was only 1 hour later that we finally managed to place our orders. Called up Kbox to postpone the timing from 8pm to 9pm since we most probably won't be able to make it on time judging from the dinner time. Dinner was nice and we had a great time chatting and laughing over dinner.

    And again..I had to rush over to Kbox first to secure the rooms cos' they usually let out the rooms to others if we reach late. Fortunately I've Sarah and Wei Khim to accompany me there first. We were so full we could like hardly walk without complaining we're full. The way to Marina Square Kbox was rather far but it was fun with the 2 ladies with me giggling away.

    We reached the place and finally settled down. Junney was already at the area and joined me right after we fixed the rooms. The rest came in much later and though we were only suppose to sing till 12 midnight..as some of our colleagues reached only at around 11pm (cos' poor them had to work OT), we were allowed to extend our singing session till 1am. The craze only really came at around 12am and while we were contemplating if we should extend further, the next timing would be till 4am (and each of us got to order another drink which costs min SGD8). We gathered 4am would be too long and we kept to the 1am limit. It was really fun running around the 2 rooms that we booked and singing with all the different colleagues. Here are some of the captures of memories and joy...

    It was so much fun and I hope with this happy and joyous farewell...Miss Xianie will hug a nice closing to her journey in DT and move on to another phase in her life. Though Bella understands that people come and go (especially in the field of Audit), she knows she will miss Miss Xianie...a lady whose ever so innocent and kind at heart. And though along the way the planning and putting of the farewell into reality was "hair-pulling" and frustrating at times, I'm so happy it happened..I really am!

    To Miss Xianie: Faith always takes the first step forward. You have great faith in God and have taken the first step with great belief. I feel so happy for you. In a new environment, I wish you all the best and if at any time you feel uncomfortable, remember you have gone through so much darkness but you persevered till the end because in you I believe many will come to see that "Darkness cannot put out the Light; it can only make it brighter". Read your blog and you mentioned you have mixed feelings...but isn't the transition stage always full of discomfort? I look forward to hearing joyous updates of you in your new workplace soon. You'll be fine cos' you're a light that is ever glowing. Take care babe! =)
