Big,,,
Today on the MRT to church, I thought about you and all the things that are happening in your life right now.
I've only got one sister. And that's you. I've grown up with you all 20 years of my life. (How unfortunate. Ha ha! Kidding!) And even though I don't see you every day, you have a big big space in my heart. I've looked up to you all the time. I just wanted to be like you in every way. Remember that story I told you before about the two brothers? I really feel like the younger brother sometimes. And I'm just following in your footsteps. (: You're the cooler one, the smarter one, the prettier one.
You should be in Cambodia in a few weeks actually. But on Mummy's birthday, you told us about how you're delaying the trip for one year because you gave that money you saved for Building Fund. I have to be honest, I'm very happy that you're staying.. When you first told me about heading to Cambodia to volunteer, I know I'm supposed to be happy for you. And I guess for a while there, I was really happy. Yea mann! I get to bring my friends over, talk loudly without getting any smses from you to ask me to lower my volume, I can borrow your clothes! But after thinking more about it, I got pretty sad. I think I still am. I know that this time next year, I'll really be missing you. We would all be at the airport sending you off. I feel like I lost you to Siem Reap. Ha ha. I know, you'll be back to visit and all. But I just really want you to know that I'm gonna miss you. I'm gonna miss you a lot a lot. I definitely support you going over there. But please don't forget that you have a sister back in Singapore.
Aiyoh. This entry machiam like you going off already. But, I just thought I'll tell you how much you really mean to me because I don't express that much. So, for this one year left, I'm going to hang out more with you!

Thank you for being my sister (although it's not like you have any choice) and always being there. I'm glad that you're going to be around to celebrate one more birthday of mine.
Hey. I love you, Jiejie. D:
