When I woke up this morning, I had every intention of blogging on something I came up with called THE RANDOM LIST. I even had a few ‘items’ on that list ready for me to blog away.

That, obviously, did not happen because I’m here now to blog about something completely different!

You see, I woke up today and it seemed like any other ordinary Friday. Then as I was brushing my teeth and dozing off at the sink simultaneously, my mum comes barging into the bathroom and excitedly tells me (How can anyone be excited at  6.30 in the morning??) that Aunty Rat got the job in UK.

K, let me explain, Aunty Rat is my aunt (Duh) and she is a lecturer in MMU. She got an offer from a college in UK to work and she went there for an interview. She said the interview was gruesome and challenging. So when we got the news that she got it, well, even I was happy and excited. As happy and excited as I can get at 6.30 in the morning. (Which means, I went ‘Urg, gat’s great ma’)

So thats the first good news. The second good news I got was that Uncle Johnson, one of the happiest, fun uncles I know who was a little down in the dumps recently, got a new job. Now, it was 7.30am when I heard this so I did manage to shriek and say’ OMG! That’s awesome. I’m so so happy for him!’ and I was genuinely pleased.

I mean, I was going to be living with him and my aunt once I’m in London so I naturally want everyone to be really happy there cause then I can be in a happy, loving atmosphere. Hey, I have happy needs!

Oh and I ate this horrible oats for breakfast that had no taste at all and I kept retching. Yucks! But it makes me SUPER FULL so I dont feel hungry now. Hmm.

So well, good news three, my visa is done. Phew. Now I just have to pick it up. So leceh!

So  yes, I come to the 4th thing now which I’m not sure is good or bad-ish news. .

Today I have to do clearance at the IT department. Which means, today is the last day that I will have my office computer, my last day with an account to use the comp, my last day with my office email and the last day I can be online at work (3 days left to work without the Internet, how will I survive??)

And since today is my last virtual day at work on the computer, I’ve been getting the sweetest ever emails from my fellow VT’s and other colleagues.

You see, I’m actually looking forward to leaving here, I mean I did enjoy my internship here but I really want to hang loose before I start college. So I’ve got no hard feelings leaving. BUT, the one thing that I would miss is the people here. And  they being so nice now doesnt help as well! Ish!

My work email is gonna be wiped clean soon so Im gonna paste two of my favorite emails that I received today.

Dear Kaitlin,

 

I’ll miss you sweetie and thank you for helping me with the fax machine the other day.I’ll always remember the sweet little girl that I met on the first day of orientation

Thanks for being you and a good friend.

I hope that we’ll meet again someday in the future ( I can’t wait)

Lastly, good luck in all your future endeavors (especially in law school J )

 

With lots of love,Natalie

 

Kaitlin Dearie:

 

Indeed It was nice getting to know you and feeling sad that you have to leave & will miss you too.  Anyway It’s good thing as you’re embarking new phase in life as “college” student – more exciting and challenging as you move along in life.  Sincerely, I do wish you all the very best in whatever do, wherever you are & stay as the same sweet young thing I have known.  Please take care & don’t forget to have fun too.  God Bless you.

 

Warmest Regards, Cassie

Who wont cry reading this? Gosh. Really made me teary-ly sad. Aiya! Leaving is gonna be harder than I thought now! I really love these people – Joyee, Cassie, Regina, Sue Ann, Nat, Ling Yok, Joanne, Norzie, Ms Cindy, Mandy. I am going to enjoy every moment I can left here!

Plus everyone is being super nice to be and people are stopping me to bid me farewell and all the best and GOSH!

Plus there is another darling called Sue Ann who is organizing a farewell for me on Monday at Simply Penang and she reserved the place and all.

Why are they being soo super sweet??

I’m not trying to sound ungrateful but I’m honestly so really touched that I dont really know what to do with myself right now.
