And so I've left yet another part-time job at an izakaya (Japanese sake house) and I would just like to say,

thank you for teaching me life lessons,
thank you for giving me a new experience,
thank you for the food (and beer of course),
thank you for the friends,
thank you for all the memories.

Although I won't say that life's been all butterflies and rainbow at Tomo, but it was overall a positive experience. I never knew how to deal with goodbyes, and I don't think I will ever be able to deal with it. I guess I am a lot more less articulate than I know; or maybe I'm just really not as daring.

I'm not even sure if this is correct, but in my very limited Japanese (and because using Japanese is so much closer to this matter at hand), I'd like to say,

Kitchen Crew @ Tomo, itsumo osewa ni natte orimasu! arigatou gozaimasu!
谢谢你们的教导和照顾！

it matters not who I am but who I want to be.

till next time.
