When you are going to search for the meaning of "Despedida", it means farewell or Good Bye. Traditionally in the Philippines, a Despedida party (Farewell Party) is held for someone who will be away for a long time, like those immigrants. It is also same thing for those who will resigned or retired on his/her work. This party can be planned or organized secretly by one of your family, friends or workmates. Your family and friends would wish you good luck for your new endeavour in life.
In my case, I didn't have an intention to throw a Despedida Party coz it would cost you money and time to prepare. But Dennis was always insist me to have this party so I could have time to say 'Good Bye' formally to my family and close friends before I would go to the Netherlands. It was just simple party but memorable. Our family was complete that time and most of my close friends attended on this party. I was so glad and enjoyed on that day but still, I felt little bit of loneliness every time I would think that I would be far from them. It was really hard to say Good bye to them but I should need to be strong and try to be happy in facing my new chapter of my life.
A surprise gift for me from BUGIRLZ.
