Thank God It’s Shirley!

I could’ve sworn that phrase sounds familiar. I know, Thank God It’s Friday! So why thank Shirley? Well, you might just have to read on and find out why. (I hope you find out eventually hahaha) It is a few more days, 1 more week to be exact before I fly to Brisbane, Australia. Something’s missing. Good food! I’ll be missing all the food in Malaysia! But wait a second, isn’t TGIF available in Australia? Yup, but you have to pay Australian Dollars. Ouch! And… I have to pay for myself hahahaha!

It was a little last minute, plus I had to leave during Chinese New Year. Everyone’s going back to their hometowns then, right? So it makes perfect sense to have a mini farewell during this week! Mrs. Shirley Tan (my high school teacher, teacher in charge of the school’s editorial board, my “colleague” and my kawan baik ) organised the mini farewell for me. She called my high school friend (good friend in fact), Da Wei along too. Not to forget Pn. Teo (best disciplinary teacher I have ever known) and Pn. Evelyn (best PJ teacher.. haha always lets us go for PJ even when she took relief for our class!). However, Pn Evelyn couldn’t make it as she had other obligations.

The initial plan was to have it at a joint in Taipan. Anyone up for Mexican food? (hint) However, due to the new MPSJ ruling (maximum 1 hour of parking at Taipan), we had to ditch the plan and head for Subang Parade! Guess who was the driver? It was none other than Da Wei! And he drove his spanking (or rather his parents’) new Mazda! Woot! I’m so lucky! So is Pn. Shirley! Pn. Teo has her own ride!

We had a choice of between TGIF or Swensons. Well, I’m sure if you were observant enough, you might have guessed we chose TGIF. It was an easy pick. “Swensons got not much choices la”. We ordered our foods (oh yeah it was an extremely late lunch ) pretty fast! Wow! And I’m amazed that the waiter could remember all of our orders! Good memory, dude! As usual, we yakked, “GOSSIPED” and discussed over food and drinks. Good times….

I guess that’s goodbye to people who have enriched my high school education. Teachers, friends and perhaps enemies as well. Thanks for all the inputs and the experiences. It has made me what I am today. ARIGATOGOZAIMAS… Hope to see you in Brisbane!!!

Oh and, THANK GOD IT’S SHIRLEY! GUESS WHO PAID THE BILL?
