Had a gathering with the Extremes peeps yesterday at Crystal Jade. It was supposed to be a farewell dinner for Sharon but in the end, she didn’t turn up. But at least, she made an effort to meet us after dinner for a drink and a short chit-chatting session. Coach was furious, I supposed and it was wise of her not to flare up as it will dampen everyone’s mood. Dinner wasn’t as great in term of the food but the company was great. It is not easy for the seniors to meet up and this is especially so, since everyone has gone into different phases of our lives. Ade is busy working and travelling around now, Fang, bee and Stella are busy coaching, Bird is only back in Singapore for school holidays and very soon she will leave again for another 6 months and for Shiqi, she is forever busy national training and schoolwork. As for Tong and me, we too, are busy with school works and hardly go for trainings now. Now that Sharon is leaving for good and I’m not sure when I will see her again. I used to see her once a week during training until I stop going for trainings. But from now onwards, she will not be there even if I go for training. All I could do now is to chat with her in either msn or Facebook. I have difficulty expressing what I’m feeling now. No doubt it is the unwillingness to part, but I’m certain there is something else that I’m feeling too. New Zealand is a great country and I think Sharon will definitely enjoy her life there. I will tour New Zealand again if I have a chance to. I will visit her by then for sure and it will be good if she can offer me free lodging. Hahaha..

Anyway, Sharon, I wish you all the best. Take care and you will be missed by us. =)
