Just came home after sending off Phil at the airport. He left today to work in Dubai for two years. It wasn't exactly a teary moment but everyone was sad to see him leave.

Even though two years is not a long time and he'd be back for hols every six months, there will always be a void of some sort. After all, we had been meeting up for regular kopi sessions.

But friends being friends, we are all behind him all the way since this has been what he had been wanting do all along. I told the pig that i had always believed that everything happens for a reason the reason is always good. I believe that God has His plan for every one of us. This working experience overseas will surely fulfill his life experience and enrich it in more ways than one.

Phil, if you are reading this from Dubai. Give this job your best shot! We'll all be waiting to have kopi at Azhar with you!
