Goodbye to Swedish and More

Fine, I am really clumsy with my emotions and I think I established that when I did my incident through text, facebook, and other far from face to face sources. Today I encountered another situation where I have to express how I feel, this time even harder since it’s to my co-workers which are like my family in a way.

I never thought that saying goodbye would be difficult I mean I’ve done it before leaving one workplace for another, this is certainly different. I remember when I first send my random e-mail to LA last year and got a call from an old college friend who so happen to be working at LA and eventually we started working together.

Our launch for LA was simply breath taking and for me to be a part of it was really something I can’t describe. From being at Bed Supperclub at 1pm to unknown hours, standing on the bar talking and pretending to be a fluent host when I was really nervous is something to remember!

Then there’s a Dutch and another Sweed in our office that amuses me everyday with their sarcasm. Every other line you will one of them say, “Why is it like that? Why do people do that? I just don’t understand! WHY?” Yes, it always starts with a why and ends with a why. While the other is so picky with the food it’s not even funny!

For starter I have never seen a person who ordered Chicken with Basil (Thai Style) except the dish must be without the basil. As Swedish as he may appears to be, no cheese is allowed near him though. Then of course there’s my Aqurius boss well an ex-boss now who’s passionate about Swedish Candy and the invention of Gawker. On top of that he also loves to eat fruits but never eat the pomelo, I still wonder why and orange juice is a good start for the morning.

I know it’s kind of weird how I know all these little habits that matters to no one but when you think about it – at the end of the day there’s only 5-6 of us and you spend most of your time with them. The drama we had, lunches we took, bitchin’ session we did on P5 might irritates me when I was here sometimes but I am so going to miss it when I am gone.

Another Friday night and another chapter of my life closed. I hate to see an empty desk … it’s just so empty … so I decided to leave some of the things that reminds people of me, a teddy bear doll. I am excited, sad, and a little nervous at the same time to see the next chapter of my life but what the hell right?

Sometimes we just have to kiss the past goodbye and open our heart for the future.
