UK-Malaysia LDR Round 2!

It's been more than a week since Zoe left and I've been getting random messages like "Sya, how far is ChinaTown?" or "Which detergent do I buy?" lol #myfirstLDRpartnerhasalwaysbeenher

Anyways, rewind back to the day/night she left.

The day she was leaving Min came over in the "morning" (there's no such thing as mornings with us.. Morning = after 12PM at the earliest..) to help me finish Zoe's farewell present. I remember when I was leaving three years ago, the three of them (Zoe, Min & Jenn) gave me a pack of personally decorated "emergency" underwear. They wrote on the card: "For whenever you run out of underwear because you're too lazy to do laundry.." 3 years in UK, never once I used them (& actually ended up buying more underwear whenever I run out of them if I'm too lazy to do laundry :p). Sorry guys, personal hygiene issues, who knew what you guys did with it.. & They gave me the pack moments before I boarded my flight so I had to carry underwears on board -___-' Only God knows what was that Abang Custom thinking..

In return, I gave Zoe a huge ass frame to carry on board, so now we can call it even ;)

Chose to give her this instead because I know how lonely it can be sometimes in UK and it's nice to have things that remind you of home in your room. Told her that if the colour starts to fade then she should let me know and I'll make a new card for her to frame up inside. 

Min left for lunch and went straight to Zoe's after we were done. I on the other hand had to take a nap because I was starting to fall sick. I think my body was rejecting the idea of people leaving me & the beginning of LDRs :( 

Post dinner I made my way to her house.

We chilled at her house as she was getting ready and finishing up packing her hand luggages. She also finally gave us our farewell gift..

(Rewind back to a couple of days before she was leaving, the day that we were supposed to have lunch in Bangsar)

That night as we were planning the plan for the next day, 

Min: What are you doing at Mid Valley? Do you want us to follow you?

Zoe: No lah.. It's okay, I can go alone. I like doing things alone..

Min: But I wanna spend time with youuu! I don't mind following

Me: Yeah, not like I've anything planned anyways. We can follow you then go Bangsar terus.

Zoe: No need lah.. I needa go Maxis also with my Dad pagi anyways.

Me: You go Maxis, then we go to your house, then we go to Mid Valley & Bangsar together then we balik lepak at yours lah?

Zoe: No... It's okay, no need! I'm going Mid Valley to get you all punya farewell gifts anyways!

Me: HAHAHAHA! Why do I feel like that's a lie because once you say that for sure we won't follow you anymore..

Zoe: ...  I'm serious lah!  

I was skeptical at first.. But she was serious after all :')

While we were at BV in MPH, 

Me: Why are you buying a pack of envelopes bay?

Zoe: Urr.. For notes.. 

This is why my friends can't plan me a surprise -___-' Cannot lie for shits!

But her letter was so sweet, when I read it after we got home from the airport (she didn't allow us to read it before she leaves) I immediately missed her and texted her.

"I know it's a little crude, but I hope you find a space for it in your room so you'll always have a part of me in your room" - Zoe.

:')

I sent her a picture of this with the message, 

"I've always had a little piece of you in my room. The card you made for my birthday years ago followed me even to the UK, in the frame lagi okay! Your card is the only framed up card, ever! :'("

And then I realised she gives me the most inappropriate things -___- A shit-shaped card (literally) and an official "slut" plaque..

Anyways, once she was ready we made our way to the airport. Before we left her Mum said that she thought I was Zoe because we were wearing the same thing & only then we realised that we ARE wearing the same thing, lol.

The "Babysluts" uniform as I'd like to call it. 

We had McD at the airport because somehow we were all hungry (I even had 2 chicken McDeluxe!) & not long after it was time to say our goodbyes :'( 

Considering that I do this on a yearly basis since the last 3 years, I wasn't as sad because heck, we've done this at least 8 times! -__-' But for some *coughYasmincough*, the waterworks started immediately as they said goodbye. 

After an emotional car ride home, Min & I drove back to my house and called it a night once we were all done leaving Zoe messages for her to read once she's landed.
