Today marks the departure of Yuya. I hate departures. Especially when I know the chances of seeing them again is slim. I miss Yuya!

He is someone who is so passionate about his work, life and eveything. When you see him, he is always full of zeal.. He is a pastor from Hosanna Heights. He chose to come Adelaide to learn English and how to work as a pastor. He wish to educate the people from Japan about life after death so that they will not be lost and hopeless. I admired his character. Not only because he is determined to go after his dreams. Also because he is always so concerned about everyone from Hosanna. I just remember telling him I had a test on a Monday during breakfast. I ask him to pray for him. And he really did. Even after I move out, he would still show his concern for me through msn. Once I was a bit down, not sure what to do, he corrected my mistakes and even bring me a book. He would always pay attention to every little details in your life. I mean how can he do it? There's like 60 over students in Hosanna and hundreds of other people in his church.

Last night was his farewell party. I went. Huiqi did a video of his life for the past 2 years. It was amazing. Most of us nearly cried. He was nearly in tears, choking at every word that he said. Initally he planned to stay here for only 1 year. Then he extend to 1.5 and finally 2 years. Oh ya, all of us went to Pancake house. The whole restuarant was full packed with us. The bill? Paid by Uncle David (Owner of Hosanna). I reckon the full bill might be around 1.2k.

I wanted to send him off but I had to work. This picture showed his flight. He is blessed. Heaven also gave him a gift. Farewell Yuya. Like what you said, may we meet some time, some where, in Japan, in Australia or in Heaven. God Bless.
