Ian Ignatius Lim: Last Day in Wuhan

It is already the last day in Wuhan. Well time sure flies very quickly. Everything here seems that it takes place just yesterday and we could hardly believed that we spent 1 month and a half here in Wuhan. Today, early in the morning, we went to back alley for the very last time carrying the hope of buying herbal jelly, burger, take a last visit to the cake shop auntie which is very nice and gave us 2loaf of bread and a box of cookie for our return journey and lastly my favourite Red tea which i drink almost everyday. All these is what we yearn for on the last day but we only manage to get the tea as the rest were not open for business yet. Such a disappointment that we did not manage to eat those food that filled our stomach in times that we're hungry. Filled with utter disappointment, we're left with memories of back alley, all the time we had there and all the shop tender that we knew from 1st day when we're here. Those small talks that we had together. So time was already closing by and we need to get our luggage ready and loaded into the bus. But before that, we carried our luggage down and have it weight. Good news! mine was only 27kg. It did not exceed the weight limit of 30Kg..After all the weighing and stuff, we assembled and took a last group photo together and get our entire luggage loaded into the bus and left for the airport. In the bus, we had 3local student which is Charlotte, yepp and journey as they wanted to send us off. The journey was 1hour but this time, it seems very short. In the bus, we sang, talked and enjoy our last moment here in Wuhan. We arrived at the airport soon after and the atmosphere was alittle bitter and sad. We took photos and stuff, said our blessings and farewells to the local student that we spent a mth half with. Cries were heard and biddings were held back. At this point of time, i was touched by all that the student union has done for us. All the fun and time we spent together. Their voice, their laughter and their presence.. Saying goodbye was a hard word on that day. During this 1month and a half, we shared happiness, joy together and in this short time, the bond, friendship that we made is so strong that leaving seems so hard and unbearable. But Every good things will come to an end. Nothing in this world is forever. Goodbye will always be the last words in our mouth but they always live in our heart forevermore. The memories that they left in me is always etched deeply in my mind, unable to be erased by time. This is the bond that we shared. Goodbyes and goodbyes that we said, we parted with them. There is a song that goes "sorry seems to be the hardest word" but now to us, "goodbye seems to be the hardest word" For all that we missed, we left behind only good memories and took back with us experience and friendships which is priceless. Would like to thank the students that took care of us during our stay there as they played host and they did a seriously good job. Would also want to thank Mr. Chong for all that he has done for us. A big thank you to everyone.
