Farewell with Friends

The last 2 weeks in Singapore are just farewell dinners with friends. We are going to be out of the country for good as Scott and I agreed that settling down in the US is the best thing to do if we want to start a family and have kids soon. So right after I got my US Visa on the 29th of August 2012, we decided to leave the country on the 30th of September and go back to the Philippines first so we can spend some time with my family.

I'm going to miss all my friends in Singapore as they have all been a part of my 5 year stay there. I have met a lot of friends when I stayed in Singapore and some were friends for a season and some just remained friends for a reason.

Goodbye Getty Images

I would surely miss Getty Images team as they have been my constant family for 3 years in Singapore. I have had different housemates and different residences here in SG but Getty has been my constant companion for the whole 3 years.

I would miss my work (sniff, sniff) but most of all, I would miss the people I worked with from Getty Images Sydney, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Philippines, Seattle and most of all, Singapore :).

Thank you so much guys for arranging a farewell cake-cutting and the cards you have given me. The farewell messages deeply touched my heart. Thank you also for the US Dollars from my Singapore team and the camera from my boss, Rasheed Chandler.  I will miss you all!!!! I will miss you so much that I sometimes wish our LA Office has Finance department there. Haha. God bless everyone and thank you for all the love! Hope to see you again in the future! :)

The cake-cutting begins.
