The Departure to Korea

It has been quite some time since the last time I blogged. My brother is already in Pusan, Korea for almost three months and I have not written anything about his departure. Well, in this entry let me recap the last few days of how we spent our time together before he flew for Korea to undergo the internship program organized by Multimedia University. I can still remember we had dinner at Victoria Station at Jalan Ampang on the last day of the semester, 27 May 2006.

It was already 9pm when we were served the main course and that dinner was a particularly late dinner because my family is always on time when having the three main meals of the day - breakfast, lunch and dinner. We were having a late dinner simply because my brother and I were so busy packing our things to move out from the hostel. There were so many things to pack - textbooks, clothings, the computer itself and computer table, lecture notes and toiletries - and by the time we took our shower, it was already 8pm. We headed straight to Victoria Station soon after we checked out from the hostel.

Below are some pictures of the dining experience at Victoria Station. On the left is the "Fish n Chips" and on the right is the "Mandarin Chicken".

We enjoyed each other's company and appreciate every moment with my brother who was soon flying for Korea. As for me, all food is good food as long as they smell nice, taste nice and look nice and even if they do not, they are still edible anyway. We cannot be too picky and choosy when it come to food, frankly speaking.

Below are some sleepy yet happy faces while dining at Victoria Station and a cake half eaten as dessert in 10 minutes - we were also celebrating my father's birthday which was a few days later, in fact. Three-in-one celebration, I must say - my father's birthday, my brother's departure to Korea and the last day of the semester - all packaged in a dinner.

The day when my brother was due to fly to Korea has finally arrived - 30 May 2006. As far as I can remember, we woke up very early in the morning as his flight was departing at 8.25am. We managed to take some pictures and when it was time for him to enter the departure hall, we bade each other farewell and waited for the plane to take off from the runway.
