Bon Voyage Jilly...

Just came back from the airport... I am wondering how come my life is so filled with sad happenings lately... one after another... now one of my most doted cousin just left for England to do her degree... ironically, i was the one who encouraged her when she came to my for my opinion. Although ultimately, its her choice to go...

reached the airport at 830pm... in the end was too earl... waited for her to arrive. Aunt is going to her, to help her settle the stuff so she can study with a peace of mind... i guess its dual way, she also cant bear part with her also. Brenda and Vera and Uncle were there... afterall its their daughter and sibling who is going overseas. My mum and Xiao Yee, and Uncle Kess and their 2 hyper active daughters (my 2 youngerset cousins) came to send her off too... Everyone din talk much, kinda sad to see her leave i guess, but its not like she is not coming back, everyone knows that. Silence and the enjoyment of each other's company seemed to be the order of the day. the funny thing is that Jillian actually panicked till she suffered from diahorrea for the whole day.. According to Bren, even the chilli crab dinner couldnt make her feel better.

her friends soon turn up in numbers... close to 30 of them if i am not wrong... each of them brought her something or made her some commemorative souvenirs to remind her to their times together. photos, albums, cards and such... i swear that she could fill one lugguage by itself. when time is up, the tears begin to flow, hugs and kisses of good luck... the unwillingness to leave... is something that everyone could relate to... when she finally checked in... that was the last i see of her until june next year... one of my most doted cousin...

Bye Jilly... take care when you are over there...
see you next year, Bon voyage...
*sadness engulfs*
