Nov 16, this is the day that we said goodbye...i sent my good friend to the Tullamarine Airport this morning. it was hard. i'm now feeling the sense of lost still. it's no easier for Annie who was leaving, knowing that it will be final time we'll meet here in melbourne again. i tried to always comfort myself that i'll keep in touch with her again....but i guess life's not going to be the same without her as a housemate from this day on. as we hugged, i could feel her controlling her sobs. it was just so hard to say goodbye....so very difficult.
3 years flew in a blinking of an eye. i still remembered the first time i said 'Hi' to her, i almost thought she's a Korean! when i first met her, i never thought she'd turn out to be my housemate and my dearest friend in Melb. we shared lots together, our dreams, our hopes, our secrets and our agonising pain of exams. of course, we do fight, but we always got back this friendship and often end up closer each time. many said we are twin sisters because we are always together. we sound so alike on the phone too, so much so that callers assume they got the right person and we keep receiving calls which aren't for us, =). even our laughters sounded so similar!! oh yes, we learnt cooking together....we shared icecream and cheesecake together, we watched vcds and cried together and yar, we went to Macas/ Mc donalds when one of us was really upset and we always walk to uni together. so much to remember...but one thing we promised each other, we will see each other again in 2008 Beijing Olympics, we will! =)
