from green to black

tribute to jun

jon and i sent jun off at the airport today. she's gone
back to boston and she'll be there for a year or so.
its amazing what goes through our thoughts as the
celeb of the moment takes off. wen talked about
missing her so much that she dreams about it. i
wondered who was more afraid in these kinds of
situations, jun or her parents. jon was outwardly
stoic but he was sniffing all the way to cityhall, but
still waters run deep.
we hoped that you enjoyed your time here in singapore.
i certainly did. i'm grateful that she took the effort
to invite the class to her birthday. and for those who
came it gave us a chance to exchange pleasantries.
a welcome aberration from our busy lives.
i am also encouraged that one of us dares to step
out to relatively uncharted and unpredictable
waters. and feels passionately about it.
but like the rest, she has gone on to better things.
i should too. she will be missed
