Pizza Farewell

It seems that the 3 semesters that we have this year had different styles to end off in CG. For the January semester, it was the one which I've always familiar with, lunch at Pizza Hut. Then our term at May semester was a huge combined CG lunch session at KFC. It's just buckets of chicken. Then this time, we decided to something different also. We are having a farewell lunch session just like fellowship lunch but we'll be delivering the pizza right at the doorstep of SC-1-1a. It's a massive effort coordination since we need to go around collecting money and also take into account of the number of people coming.

After class today, Erwin and me went to Pizza Hut but it was not open early in the morning. We needed to wait until it's 11 before we could order. So meanwhile, we went to chill out at Secret Recipe first. When it was 11, we went there but apparently, the staff there are so slack that they don't open on time. We ordered 14 large pizzas altogether but we were kinda surprised when the cashier told us the total amount to be paid which was way smaller than what we anticipated. We double confirmed with her and she confirmed it back. We scratched our heads, thinking that maybe we may be getting cheaper pizzas afterall. Later it was revealed that she punched in regular instead of large, so that explains the smaller amount. We expected to wait about at least 1hr but surprisingly, all 14 large pizzas were done within 15 minutes!

After dealing with the pizza, we went to Giant to get some ice cream soda to mix with the concentrated orange juice. We managed to settled everything on time. One of the problems that we thought that we would face was that we may have a shortage of pizzas to go around. But praise God, for some reason or so, there was enough pizza to go around for everyone to have their stomachs filled. For the farewell ceremony, it was time to say our goodbyes to Yvonne, Shue Li, Xue Yi, Jessica and Sophia. We wish them all the best in their future destinations and may God bless them in everything that they do. Among the five, I would know Sophia the best since she's my churchmate and we do hang out from time to time for shopping and movies. Sophia's been one of the old guards of the CF seniors, and indeed, she's one of the last of them to leave. I really wanna thank her for helping me out in coordinating the transport matters on Sunday morning and yup, she's one of the coolest sister-in-Christ I've ever encountered. She plays computer games and has very good reflexes for sports btw..haha. Best of all, she has a knack for finding fun too..lol. Thanks for being a great sister Sophia, and I wish you all the best for your studies in New Zealand! :)

Hmmm..looking at all those leaving people make me ponder and reflect that my time will come soon enough and the next time that it happens, it will be me. It's already close to 5 semesters and time flies fast indeed. Well, it's a continuous rite of passage. One more semester before a new chapter in life is written on a fresh new page.
