It's like I'm keeping track of your age through this journal.... (This is totally not creepy. AT ALL.) I hope we can keep trying until we finally grow old and tired, until our paragraphs become (only just) shorter paragraphs.
I've realized that this time round we are more aware of what is happening in each other's lives? which makes me feel a lot better. That also means I have nothing much to say this time aside the fact that I think we have defined something really important, and that is this:
We are both nasty bitter a$$ bitches. In a good way though.
I'd like to blame our upbringing, but then that wouldn't be fair to our mothers. Everything they've done to become Top Commadants were only to better our quality of living. Thank you Tante Zusy (and whispers faintly to my own mother...) but I honestly think we'll become better versions of them because obviously they have never seriously and religiously pined over men only accessible in East Asia for that matter!! Here's to fully understanding the 'young girl's' full spectrum of emotion. Starting now, I think a lot of things will become clearer. Choices are clearer, even attention to health and body, soul, mind, (eat, pray, love) would become much clearer and that's only because you're 20. The power of 20. Okay, maybe it'll take a few more months (or another 2 years) but!! I hope you'll become stronger even with the many sacrifices you'll have to make.
At 20, I was being an incredibly angsty Rising Senior (in terms of Design School, no doubt) but you've gone a step ahead and landed a job at a really cool start-up company. I saw a glimpse of your office already! I'm even hyped up at your days there because 1. It's like a 3 story building or something and 2. I don't know what can go incredibly hipster with the seemingly wood-texture-like furniture you guys have and 3. .... (Actually, take more pictures of the office so I can understand your space a bit more... lol...) I'll probably never stop this whole age comparison thing because I'm always proud of what you've done and it actually inspires me by miles and miles. #np A Thousand Miles - Vanessa Carlton
Cheers to our (seemingly but surely) healthy relationship!!!! And Happy 20th birthday, you're in my prayers today. As of now, whenever you come over to Doha please let me treat you to something nice or make me buy you something nice on a good budget because I can afford it.
Love love love, your jb to your jb?? and still your kyungsoo to your baekhyun,
Carisa
P.S. Thank you for always being there for me when I embrace trashy kpop. Love you most.
P.S.S. Weekend skype me anytime?
