Last Day @ Work

Yesterday was the last day working with the colleagues in the office the DDA has been working at for the past 10 months.

Colleagues at work sent the DDA off with a dinner do on Wednesday and drinks after work yesterday. For the leaving dinner, the DDA chose Okonomiyaki @ Abeno on Museum Street. It turned out to be a good choice afterall. With 15 altogether the seating was a little tight, however the dining experience proved to be entertaining, and the food was satisfying.

The Okonomiyaki meal was just so interesting the DDA couldn't help but captured these:







Drinks after work yesterday seemed a little embarassing for the DDA, especially the speech by the manager. The little goodbye gesture from all colleagues was lovely in fact. The DDA loves the card with messages from all she's worked with.




Drinks carried on at a nearby pub. It turned out to be a rather interesting session. The DDA made it home safe, but the Finn was very much convinced that she was drunk. She did walk out of the pub leaving behind one other bag she had with her, but remembered just on the brink whilst reflecting on the underground platform. For a split second she was pretty tempted to leave the bag to collect it the following day... then again maybe she wasn't absolutely drunk, so she went back.

It is rather ironic that you find friends the moment you are leaving a place where you've built relationships. Then again a person still has to go on despite knowing that change can be daunting and fearful. Change is necessary in the process of growth.
