A Gift, and a goodbye.

PiHyo was working for Starbucks even before I joined Zenitum. As I came there often (Read: every. day.), I became friends with a few people working there, including PiHyo, Eomji (Both seen here), Becky, and a few others that later joined. It is because of their kindness that I became a regular customer, and went out of my way to go ‘all the way’ to Starbucks, instead of, say, the much closer by Tom & Toms (psuh, as if.) or, god forbid, Seven Monkeys.
What I enjoy about life is that it’s full of surprises. While some are bad –or, undesired–, most are good and often lead to new and interesting new experiences. The Butterfly Effect, so to speak. Every choice in life effects you, people around you and, indirectly, total strangers. While I’ve definitely had times where I felt better than I do right now, I do still appreciate these little randomanities that make life as special and unique as it is.
PiHyo is leaving Starbucks today, and will be leaving for a one-year trip to England, to study English. I’m sure it’ll be an amazing experience for her, and am very happy that she’s able to make this step. As she’s the last one left from the ‘original’ Starbucks crew, I will miss her, though. It’s a somewhat sad reminder that most everything changes in life, and sticking around in one place is not possible. Perhaps for the better.
I wish you all the best, PiHyo, and hope you’ll have an amazing time there in England. And, perhaps, you’ll find your very own Hugh Grant there
.

PiHyo gave me this soap as a small gift.
