Farewell

It was a fantastic Friday yesterday as I had two outings, one for lunch and one for dinner. Following traditions from every semester, our Friday CG group held our last gathering at Pizza Hut. Haha..it's the last time we'll have Charles as our CG leader since this is his last semester. Thank God we had sufficient transport to get everyone there as Charles, Mark and me were the drivers. Extra drivers are good especially for those that need to go back early for the 2pm class. Lol..this semester, I'm super free after 11am since I have no more class! This was unlike last semester when I had to rushed back for the 2pm class..hur hur. Since we had around 11 people, we ordered two six-person's meal. Our side of the table get to eat extra..hehe..but we still do remember Valerie of course! We spent so much time experimenting with the DSL camera that we almost lost track of the time. Some of those who had class at 2pm were still munching pizzas and slurping soup at 1.45..lol. At the end, me and Alvin Victor were the last ones to leave as we slowly savour and finish the remnants of our meal.

Then in the evening, the GFS gang from Inti took the classic public transport route from campus to Mid-Valley for a surprise farewell dinner for Johnny. We decided not to use cars becoz the area over there would be too jammed and I'm not too familiar with the area also. Haha..it was quite funny at the KTM station because I was taking my own sweet time to feed the machine with RM1 notes when the train arrived. I quickly stuffed in a RM5, get the change and make a dash for it. Fortunately, I managed to get inside the train in time..lol.

We went to Nandos where we've already booked the tables there. Grace and the others had reached there earlier to confirm our booking there. I think we had 20 plus people at the table including Pastor Vic. In any case, we all have to arrive earlier than Johnny for the surprise to work. Haha..and Johnny was really stunned and surprised to see all of us there. He was expecting a small group of 4 people to eat with him but he didn't noticed that the long stretch of table of 20 people in front him contained faces that are familiar to him. We duly alerted to his attention by singing a "happy birthday" song and the whole restaurant was staring at us! haha..The food was good with unlimited flows of ice lemon tea. The chicken was marinated well and the spiciness was super but delicious. Thankfully, the free flows were there to cool the mouth..lol.

Jia Lerd's mama came to fetch the girls while the boys went back through KTM. When we reached the Nilai bus terminal, there were no more buses and the weird thing is that there were no more taxis too except for one or two. So, to save cost, me and Jason went back through one taxi and we returned back to the bus terminal with our cars to fetch the rest. Haha..Jason also get to fetch 3 extra girls from Inti that we don't know since being good uni mates, it's not nice to leave them stranded there.

Since I called 1/2 chicken at Nandos, my bill came to about RM31. Woah, yesterday's lunch and dinner = RM 43. Plus KTM fees of Rm 9 +. Easily more than RM 50 yesterday. I'm definitely going for a lunch fast today..lol. Bank-busting prices for the meals but the fellowship and company of friends were great. Anyways, all the camera sessions were really hilarious. There's Spongebob, Patrick and Mr Krabs, guys wearing couple shirt, people receiving "awards" and people having sumpit (blowpipe) wars all over the place. I bet there's gonna be a FFA Facebook comment flood soon. You can probably imagine the amount of sakai-ness that is going through during dinner xD
