the closing of another chapter

so this is the last day in Adelaide.
Don't have much time to write about my last 2 years in Adelaide.
but one thing i must say,
i am blessed to have met so many amazing people here who have taught me so much.

here are some pictures just to summarize the last 2 years:






























*****

let me introduce you to a song from "Wicked"
really wanted to watch it in Melbourne,
but i couldn't afford the ticket.
such a shame.

such a beautiful song,
and it goes out to everyone who has walked my 2 year journey in Adelaide with me
just thought i'd share the words of the song with you :

I'm limited:
Just look at me - I'm limited
And just look at you -
You can do all I couldn't do, Glinda
So now it's up to you
For both of us
Now it's up to you:

I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you:

Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good

It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend:
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you,
Because I knew you:
I have been changed for good

And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done you blame me for

But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share
And none of it seems to matter anymore

Like a comet pulled Like a ship blown
From orbit as it Off it's mooring
Passes a sun, like By a wind off the
A stream that meets Sea, like a seed
A boulder, half-way Dropped by a
Through the wood Bird in the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
I do believe I have been changed for the better?

And because I knew you,
I have been changed for good.

******
thank you Adelaide.
You sure have changed me for good :)
goodbye for now,
i will miss you.
