Au Revoir

I have never liked to say goodbye. There is always such a finality to it. And something dies somewhere in the soul. Instead, I'd far rather see it as something very temporary. I'll see you later. Au Revoir. We shall meet again. That instills hope.

The past four months have proved to be simply wonderful! There have been so many adventures and I've done things I've never even considered doing before!! What stands out though are the people I have met here. Liz, Brat, SS, Cowboy being right on top of that list!! Not to forget Gautam, Shibin, Aaranya, Cathy, Adithya, Sheena, Naomi, Toju, the Toucan and the entire Derivatives presentation bunch, the contingent of Indian LLMs, my clustermates, Shobhit, the TF squad and so many many others I have spent special moments and forged bonds with. It's been a beautiful time. I will always maintain that Singapore is a lovely place to be in when you have got the right bunch of friends! And I have been blessed abundantly!

So here's to memories of spending the night on a bench under the stars in a foreign land, parasailing and weightlessnes, camping in a hotel lobby in the wee hours of the morning until we could finally check in at 6 am, Bailey's Comet, the Lube, almost getting peed on by a bat, the fountain of wealth, spontaneous river cruises, conjunctivitis, tears, Hard Rock Cafe, green tea cake, Scruffy, long walks around campus and furtive oreo cookie mcflurries, the ten courts of hell, the crunch times before derivatives presentations each week, roti prata and teh tarik around midnight, Sheares suppers, IMH sessions, black and red nail polish, falling in love with the oh-so-expensive dress, camping, patai!!!!, chopsticks, kayaking, failed attempts at ice skating, trying to catch the baby monkeys on camera, lying at the base of the merlion and talking on and on...All of these memories so special because of the people associated with them.

I am glad to have known you and will miss you! Until we meet again then...!!
