hello and goodbye

And the day is here.
I'll be bopping my way to the lovely Singapore Changi Airport in a while.
My luggage is threatening to explode but i am proud to say that I managed to squeeze all that is needed and maybe un-needed into my 29-inch luggage and the very old but still durable Ripcurl bagpack from my secondary school days.
Sigh.

For the next 4.5 months/18 weeks/128 days..

I will miss taking the MRT, SBS to anywhere and everywhere.
I will miss flagging cab and cursed myself when I need to pay the ERP charge, 30% peak hour and 30cents diesel surcharge.
I will miss buying iced-lemon-tea from the hawker uncle and mos burger.
I will miss using my UOB privilege to buy movie tickets.
I will miss watching SCV and listening to Y.E.S.93.3.
I will miss seeing Bangalas and think that they are cheekos.
I will miss going out to ROC and eat supper as and when i "song".
I will miss kopi c, teh o, tak kiu, char kway teow, chwee kueh, hokkien mee, hang her..
I will miss seeing Malays, Indians and other nationalities on the street.
I will miss shopping at air-conditioned shopping malls.
I will miss donuts.
I will miss Breadtalk and Ya Kun.
I will miss McDelivery.
I will miss speaking in Hokkien, Cantonese, Malay, Tamil and English to the people on the streets.
I will miss the clean streets.
I will miss the safe environment.
I will miss withdrawing cash from POSB and UOB ATMs.
I will miss the free SMSes and incoming calls from Starhub.
I will miss you, you and you.
I will miss everything about Singapore.

So long till 17 January 2355 hrs, I wish all of you an early..
HAPPY DEEPAVALI SELAMAT HARI RAYA MERRY CHRISTMAS HAPPY 2009.


Goodbye Singapore, Hello Wuhan.
