Until we meet again

My friend Fida will be going back to Doha tonite so i've volunteered to host her farewell dinner with a few close ex- schoolmates. Since i don't hv time to prepare the meals with the kids around and no helper, we've decided to have a pot luck dinner. Chem brought KFC, Sue brought pizza, Shaly brought delicious durian pancakes from Mandarin Oriental and Fida brought pandan jelly layer cake.
It always felt good to see old friends and reminisce the old school days while not forgetting to talk about our present lives. Eventhough Chem was not from our school (we went to an all girls school), he knew everyone bcoz he was staying in Melawati and we all used to hangout back then. Only Shima couldn't join us bcoz she had to work late.


The yummilicious food that we had yesterday. The durian pancake was so delicious they felt and tasted like the real durian. I still have left overs in my fridge so i don't have to cook lunch today.

Fida brought her two kids, Ali + Soraya and Preeti brought her daughter Lily. They really got well with each other and it was chaos with them playing with toys and running all over the house. It didn't matter to me bcoz i was happy seeing them get along with each other and it's not like every day i have guests coming over.

At one point the kids got tired and sat on the sofa to watch cartoon.

I will always cherish my friendship with my old friends. Hopefully we'll get to see each other more often.

Have a safe journey back to Doha, Fida. I'm definitely going to miss u and your kids. InsyaAllah we'll meet again.
