Hope In Love

there are a few people that have played a major role in my life the last year and a half and now i have to say goodbye to them…and it’s tough… i’ve been crying like a little girl all day because of it.  i’m an emotional wreck right now…i’ve been emotional pretty much for weeks now, since i found out that MAJ and EU are leaving, but today just kinda drove me off the edge.  i was crying…in public…people saw me cry…to get the significance of that, you kinda have to know me well…i don’t cry in front of people – it’s just not me.

i don’t mind crying in my room when i’m by myself watching a sad movie or whatever, but not in front of people…that just causes awkwardness…no one needs that.

anyway, this blog is dedicated to the people from work who will be leaving us…

JdP -> really didn’t know you very well…I probably should have tried to get to know you…you seemed like a nice guy…and funny…you were always laughing with the other guys from your department.  and you offered me a lift to lunch a couple of times so yea, you seem nice.  so farewell dude, and goodluck with your future endevours.

UI -> uhm…yea…my lift club member…and car owner. thanks for everything.  glad i got to meet you and work with you.  thanks for your helpfulness and kindness and everything.  you are super great.  wishing you all the best in life cos you totally deserve it. may God truly bless you.

FS -> well, obviously this is not goodbye…you can’t get rid of me that easily.  thanks for being a friend chick…i’m gonna miss you so much…gonna miss having someone as crazy as i am.  i’m so gonna miss our talks and your advice and just having someone there to talk to and skype chat to and gossip with…it’s been great…you truly were (and still are) a blessing.  thank you so much for your friendship. you are a God-sent.  stay on fire for Him.

MAJ -> you are definitely the best manager i have ever had (and no you are not the only one, i did have a manager when i did my internship and when i worked at McDonald’s…hee hee).  anyway, i learned so much from you…thank you so much for the time and effort you put into getting me to where i am…and your readiness to always encourage me and help me out when i’m at my wit’s end and i feel like giving up (checklists…ha ha).  you are so super patient (especially when trying to explain stuff over skype…that was a mission and a half) and so super nice and just an all around great person and i can’t help but wish you well in your new job…and i’m really glad that you will still be around…even if it’s not that much…at least i won’t feel like i’m all alone.

EU -> uhm…ha ha…you are funny…weirdly funny (weird is a compliment for me so don’t take it negatively).  seriously dude, it’s been so great working with you, even though we didn’t really talk that much or whatever, but thank you for your willingness to help me with everything from “uhm…E…can you help me out with my pc…i don’t know what’s wrong with it” to  “uhm…E…can you help open this bottle” (i’m a girl i can’t help it)…and i get that you are not the most extroverted person ever, but you do have this super awesome personality and you are a great guy and you have like this super intelligent brain…like seriously, if i thought and read as much as you do i’d go crazy, but you seem to enjoy that stuff and that’s really cool…and you are so totally cool when you let people in…even if it’s just a little bit…like letting me into your musical world…weird music, but good music…kinda like you (hee hee).  thanks for being a huge part of my journey in the last 1 1/2 years.  and i know i’m gonna still see you so it’s all good…but yea, keep being you – it suits you! Oh, and i wanted to tell you (always chickened out though cos i’m not that extroverted either), pink really suits you…i know it’s like the in thing right now and all the guys are doing it, but it really doesn’t look good on everyone…but it does on you…seriously. no, i’m not hitting on you or anything (ha ha).

Well, you guys will be greatly missed…seriously, may God bless you as you have been a blessing to me.
