Farewell Dinner

On Friday the 13th, we had an x-biomeds gathering for a farewell dinner at Curry Connection, Hawken Drive, St Lucia. Provided that it was after all, Friday the 13th, no ghostly or supernatural encounters were experienced (errrr... ) except for a short-lived terkajutness of watching a possum walking along the fence of a nearby house in the dark of the night underneath the neon lights of lampu minyak tanah.. hahaha.. A possum is similar to an XXL rat with a longish tail. This is a common sight in St Lucia especially at night. Brisbane's possums are Brunei's cats, hehe.. except without the 'taie ucing' :p .... Anyhuuu, before I get off topic in comparing the merits of cats and possums... let's continue on with my story.. heheh.. Despite the unmemorable possum encounter, the night was filled with merriment and a full belly of delicious Indian cuisines. The occasion for the night was a farewell dinner for myself and Rahmat as we will be leaving Brisbane the following Sunday. My favourite dish there would be the Mouglai Briyani. It started to rain towards the end of our meal, leaving a slight chill to the night air. The restaurant was "laku" for the night since there were a lot of patrons enjoying their dinner as well. After the meal, Rahmat and myself were presented with a farewell cheese cake. How sweet of them! I felt so touched by the gesture. After dinner and cake, we left the restaurant and walked towards our respective homes under the light drizzle of the rainy night.
