Farewell Dinner : (
Friday, March 23, 2007
Dining Venue - The Belvedere @ Meritus Mandarin
The Pianist
Yesternite marked the last official event of the Singapore leg of the Sino-Singapore Student Exchange Program. I thought the dinner was quite melancholic. Many of us write autographs for one another and, of course, took many portrait momento pixs. As a semi-official photographer and also as a student participant, I was especially emotionally involved in documenting the event.
The photos were collated and burned onto CDs overnight and distributed to the returning-home students this morning. I had very little sleep and was constantly worrying about the MSN transfer from Charmaine.
The mood at the airport was kind of somber. I had to put on a smile even though I was sad to see my Chinese friends leave for home. I still remember Ye Feng took a picture of us and he said:"你们好象没什么状况", which means something like our faces were very neutral. Perhaps it's because our sadness deep inside us and our smile on our faces have neutralized each other...
As I am typing this, my mouth is ever so slightly sour...
