Duck comfit dish that I ate during the farewell lunch
Boss's birthday celebration
The past week was really a tiring week for me, the reason, I was down with cough and flu! This is the 1st time I get really sick here since I came, besides homesick (of course)....finished the whole bottle of cough syrup and popping flu pills into my throat everyday! So this weekend will not do anything but REST n SLEEP!!!
Over the past week, many events had occurred. First, we had farewell lunch for a labmate at a Californian and Mediterranean restaurant, who had went back to Japan after 3 yrs here in USA, then we celebrated my boss's birthday, who turned 77 yrs old this yr! Live long and happy!;)
Strangely, when my labmate said goodbye, a sadness feeling brush over me....it was the same kind of feeling, a sense of emptiness that I felt 2 yrs back when my Thai friend left Japan. It feels like you kinda lost a hand, or perhaps a shoulder to depend on...a sense of imbalance...but life goes on...making me stronger and more determine to finish the task I was here to do...
Well...over this week, 2 person told me I look like an undergraduate...i dunno whether this is a compliment or not....seriously, do i really look that young???;) Only those who knows me will know:) hehehe...i take this as a compliment;) Thanks my parents for the young genes;) hehehe
