Thursday, August 07, 2003 sense of leaving I did not have sense of leaving until this week, when we started to meet friends and say goodbye this week. Wow, we are going to LA! It is sooo far away, 3000 miles! We can't meet friends very often from now on, though we don't meet each other for several months while we are in the same city. But it is 3000 miles away now! We had a lunch with Marc, Mary and Ruth (Marc's manager in China) at Ponderosa yesterday. Today, Leila took us to a very lovely restraurant where California cuisine is served. Apart from as expensive as those fancy restaurants in California, the restaurant even has a name of California city called "Sonoma". Also I notice they have something I've never seen in any of other Buffalo restaurants-valet parking. That is quite California to me. I met Pijun in the department today and could not help asking her and Zhijie for another dinner-even we just did it two weeks ago. Le will again sleep over for this weekend. She is the only one with whom I can do the girlish thing, like gossiping, window shopping and cooking stuff. Bin and I will host a get-together-before-goodbye party on next Sunday (8/17) at Mayer's park, where we had our wedding ceremony two years ago. Everyone who reads my blog is welcome to come at 4:30pm- if you can make it (sorry I can't offord tickets from Colon or Sydney yet). We don't have many close friends left in Buffalo now- we have stayed here so long (since spring 1999 when Bin came first) and we've seen so many friends come and go. Every parting left us wonder when we would be seen off. And finally it is time. posted by lmeimei @11:53 PM| permanent link| | |
