Farewell~~RE
Did i say saying goodbye is the hardest thing? esp to people whom you've been working closely with for the past 2 years+?
even though most of my close colleagues were 3/4 gone.. still.. the attachment to the office environment.. same MRT route that i've been religiously taking every weekday.. scenery that i've been looking at unfailingly for these time.. it looks extra stunning on a saturday evening.. team mates that i've grown a friendship with.. certain clients whom i've enjoyed talking to.. manz.. i'll definitely miss 'ah poh' $1 duper big ice lemon tea..
8 more working days..
counting down..
new changes=better?
i really don't know..

A story sadder than sadness
I came across this Korean movie 'A story sadder than sadness'.. the story goes like this:
Having both lost their families at a young age, radio producer K (Kwon Sang Woo) and lyricist Cream (Lee Bo Young) complete each other’s lives in ways that only they can understand. Sharing a home, they watch over each other like family, and give each other weird nicknames. K has silently loved Cream for many years, playing the supportive friend as she flits from one boyfriend to another. They know everything about each other, except for one thing: K has been diagnosed with terminal cancer and has less than 200 days to live. Worried that Cream will be alone after he leaves, K’s final wish is that she can find a good husband. And it looks like they’ve found the right man in kind-hearted dentist Joo Hwan (Lee Bum Soo), who is already engaged but falls for Cream at first sight..
I cried watching the show.. More than just the usual love, tear jerking plot line.. it made me ponder over life.. if you are left with that amt of time to live.. what would you do? I realised the older i get, the more afraid I am to die.. Death could happen due to accidents.. illness..war.. etc.. perhaps it dawned on me that i am getting closer to the other scale of my life.. 25 years have passed.. and how many more 25 years do i have left? Sounds negative? not so.. I guess I've became more sensitive to life.. realising that I need to be serious in living.. Cause I am afraid one day.. if i do die in my sleep.. and then i realised there's 1001 things that i wanted to do but never did so..
No wonder they say live life today as if it's your last..
"Life on its own is a shell
it contains stories that no one initally could tell
Laugh and the world would laugh with you
cry and it would also do the same too
live life as hard as you should
feel it with your heart as it could
don't wait for this life to make your story
use your story to make the best out of this life~~"
