CONGRATULATIONS! Kim (:

This goes out for you since today’s your special day. All I can say is shitakimushrooms! Time is really ticking. It feels like those 525,600 seconds pass by even quicker every year. I really can’t believe we’re getting this old. I still remember those days when we were the kids. Technically, we’re teenagers now. But, I still feel as if we’re kids. I remember that talk we had about growing up when we first became teenagers. We can grow up physically, spiritually, & mentally. But, deep in our hearts, we’ll be kids forever. Like we promised “Never let our hearts die.” In our family, I can definetly say I’m the closest to you. We’ve been through so much together. I remember when we first started talking. It started when I called your house one day to bother you for something. Then we started spamming each other’s house phones that eventually, we got cellphones. One problem: You were Verizon & I was T-mobile. Those cellphone talks eventually spent too much $$$, that my mom decided to switch to Verizon. [Hello 3 hours each day!] I really don’t even know how we could talk for so long. It was about the randomest things, too. Eventually, we started going on random adventures everyear. Let’s Reminisce, shall we?: Those Chinnese Bus Tours to like Washington DC, Maryland, Maine, ETC. Las Vegas, The Grand Canyon, Dominican Republic, HURRICANE HARBOR, Fambams, & Those sleepovers that were held Every Summer.  I know that there are so many more memories that we remember & don’t remember. But, that’s just some of it. What’s hella intersting is that we’re totaly opposites. & Somehow, we get along just fine. Different Style. Different Taste in Music. Different Favorite Foods. Different TV shows. Different Hobbies. Opposites really do attract. But asides that, I just wanted to say… Thank You. In those Facebook notes, you always Thank Me for some reason. But, it’s my turn to thank you. ”& Those 3 remain: Faith, Hope, & Love. But, the greatest of these is Love.” Thank you for helping me keep faith. Thank you for showing me hope. & Thank you for giving me love. Beside the fact that you’re my family member, you’re also my best friend. I know we’re growing up. It’s irrelevant. I know that each day it becomes harder to stay in contact, to know what’s going on, to talk on the phone… But, remember that I’m always here for you. I’m only one call away. Please remember that. We’re blood&loyalty. As we grow up, let’s continue to make more memories. I know we still have many adventures ahead of us! They’ll all be captured in Kodak Moments, too. & Since it’s your birthday… I have a special wish for you. You probably already know what it is. Do What You Love & Love What You Do. In simple words Do What Makes You Happy. I know you’ll find it (:

Since this is hella long, I’m going to end this here. Happy Sweet 16th! I Love You.
