I don't know how to say Good-bye.

Welcome!

This entry is for Yoo Seon and also for you.

Hello!

How are you there? Do you miss us? I want to ask you who are the one that you miss the most, and I sincerely hope that it is not Peter...

Today I reported to my office, and I got about 450 emails to go thru! It was really busy today and I worked until 9pm, but I feel good... with warm & friendly welcome from my colleagues and also, I got a chance to tell them bits and pits of my stories in Korea, so that I do not feel so empty.

I was so upset to leave Korea and all of you. During the lunch before I depart to Icheon Airport, I cried a bit in the middle, and Wah Wah asked me why. I couldn't response to her but I know the reason.

It was the tears of joy.

I thought of that after today, after we left Korea for our own countries, it is very likely that we will not see each other again in the rest of our life.

However, we will carry on our life as usual and maybe, embark on another journey in the other part of the world, stay healthy and happy with the family. I felt so happy for that, therefore I couldn’t stop my tears from dropping down. How can say…. My father had passed away since I was 14. I had to say good-bye to him and I never get to see him again, except in dreams. He is always in my memory but, it fades from time to time. Therefore, I’ve learnt to treasure every moment I had especially with people and also, feel for parting deeply.

During my stay in Korea, my hp is turned-off and I only spent 20000 won for 2 phonecards. I did not really contact my friends and family members; and sometimes, I did feel a bit lonely in Korea. In fact, I was so ‘into’ my life in Korea, with the people, the lectures, the fieldtrips, the ktv, ping-pong, basketball, taking funny photos etc… Everyday is brand new for me over there.

I sat at the last row on my flight back to Singapore. It was very comfortable but I didn’t sleep for the 1st 4 hours. I flashed back my past 5 weeks of my stay in Korea, and it is time to embark the next stage of my life from now onwards, to live my life to the fullest with passions and interests. I hope you will do so, and I would be always here to support you. Acha acha fighting! (erm... is this correct?)

Take care!

감사합니다

Cheers,
leng
