No, I'm not going to miss Vancouver much. I don't really care about living in one of the most livable cities in the world or a shit hole like Zimbabwe what i would miss is you guys. Even until the last moment before i step foot on the plane all of you thought I was happy to leave and get on with my life. All your tearful goodbyes seem like they were falling on deaf ears. I acted like I was okay, like it was just another phase in life, like i know so well that people come and go and i am already ready for it. Well, I thought I was until i realize i wont be seeing you guys again. And then it dawn on me, you guys were like family, an awesome bunch, people that i would like to have life long contacts with, even thought the only friend i have a life long contact with is Ian (my best friend).
These 5 months of just hanging out, eating and traveling together had made us tight. I really appreciate the company, the laughters, the jokes and would greatly miss all of them. Too bad none of you would ever know how I really feel. All those stupid pictures that we took in Vancouver and all those Camwhore pictures would always bring a smile to my face.
I would miss taking group pictures together when old couples would ask us to say "Cheese" and we would laugh because it sounded so bloody corny and old school.
And not to mention our larger group which is also filled with awesome people.
On that faithful day, at the eleventh hour, i decided to skip my class and was given the opportunity to meet you guys, it was one of the best decisions that iIve made here in Toronto. So now, we would be going our separate ways, each returning to our own countries, who knows this may or may not be the end. Maybe just maybe, one day we would all meet up again somewhere. When the time comes on that day, drinks are on me. In the mean time, i guess this is when we say our goodbyes. Continue having an awesome time traveling the west coast, how i wish i am there with you guys. But I'm always too practical, always was and always will be, I chose doing my internship over spending more time with the bunch of you. Maybe i should have taken Serena's advice and be less practical this time around. Until the next time we meet again, goodbye.
But i take solace in knowing that i would be returning to things that i love. My family, Serena, my friends and good old Melbourne where the sun is bright and sunny. I can't believe i wrote such an emo post, usually i'm only comfortable bearing my heart and soul to Serena and maybe a few close friends.
Picture of the day:
I'm still strong alright. Don't mess with me.
PS: My work at JP Morgan starts at 7.15 and ends at 6. Oh boy, things are going to be rough.
