End with a SPLASH!!!

Another one shall soon be flying off to a different world. Before she did, Wei Fen, Hsu-Cherng and I went to meet her. We had to knock the door down, mostly because...the doorbell didn't work. Anti-climax, wasn't it? Anyway, I digress.

She's flying off to another world, as I said. So we decided to sit by the pool for our chitchat. Tempted we were to push her into the pool, but, well, it was all imagination and too much tenderheartedness.

No worries, we thought, let us roll up our pants and go in together!

It's quite relaxing, actually, as four of us sat in a row. And guess what happened after that? A classic example of the proverb, "Where there is a will, there is a way"...

As the day was about to end, all of a sudden, Mirah started fumbling and stumbling, unable to control herself although she was firmly holding onto the rock. SPLASH!!! In she went, without us even helping her to it! Odd as it is, that's one way to immortalise the day for us.

Mirah! Farewells are hard to say. And it's unfortunate that I won't be around to watch you fly off to that other world. We'll remember it all...

So instead, why not I say "see you later"? Now that sounds comforting enough.

PS. I love this photo.
