Goodbye Penang

Made by John, Lipoh, Siti, fahmi, KL, Jiang Wen, Nazri

Edited by John


This is how i will always remember my last day in Agilent..

9.30am - daily meeting (dial in)

All of us had a netmeeting to dial in to..when it came to introducing our names as attendees, my teammates refered to themselves as " pam - pam - pam"...each one of them..it was a previous day bet but i didnt think they would pull it off.. my heart almost dropped..then Nazri said " pam are you there" and i saw fahmi looking up, i just hid, so unbelievably shy to look up or answer..i was beginning to feel overwhelmed


10am - 11am - breakfast at temptations

I knew this was the last official gathering I was going to have with my teammates..I tried to play it cool..we were laughing and joking as usual..After breakfast, they gave me this lovely pair of earrings..and on top of that they did a handmade card (by JW)..at this point, it was already quite overwhelming..then john took out his laptop to show a video..even before i saw it, paip bocor terus (but of course lar i ran to the toilet, cover cover a bit, still trying to play it cool)..john stayed up till 4am to do the video..lipoh did another video which i haven't post up (but thats a long story i cant mention out here)..this was the best surprise and farewell anyone could ask for..i think my entire team threw an awesome party


lunch break - lunch & redbox

Lipoh was so sweet to plan all this out..Lipoh and JW are our singing champions in Agilent btw :) ..gosh we sang our hearts out loud at the karaoke, the oldies, the ballads, the classic rocks..it was absolutely so much fun..and the food was pretty good too! a bit of duet with everyone..mama mia with kl, bon jovi & bryan adams with siti, ballads with lipoh and JW, oldies with john :)


3pm - 4pm - vswr transfer

i couldn't meet up with fahmi before that..so this was the only time i got..Fahmi is one heck of a smart person, an incredible mentor and a great person to work with..i actually was glad i had some work to do together since this would be the last time for me to learn from him


4pm - 5pm - HR & division farewell

i dropped my badge , cards and everything at HR..then i ran to pangkor room..we were celebrating carrie's bday and my farewell ..CC did a video for me (i forgot to copy)..they were so so sweet..they gave me a lovely watch and flowers..Carrie gave me a frame..we had some super good food...i was so blessed to have my teammates with me, all my friends from my first team (some who are no longer in the division ) who came to all my friends from the division, my project techs, previous project techs and assembly experts

5pm - 8pm - the last mile

i finally found some time to clean up my cubicle..lipoh and Siti were helping me out on this..Nazri helped me transfer a bunch of my books to my car ..did some final troubleshooting with lipoh ( it felt like a very normal thing at that point =) ) . we manage to sort out my cubicle and clean my place ..and lipoh and i left Agilent together


Thank you from the bottom of my heart :)
