happy birthday dei

dei! larger version here!


to the girl who could see right through me, to the person who showed me what a real friend is like, to the person who gave me the gift of her friendship, for the fun times hanging out with her especially that one memorable summer when we hanged out almost everyday. for the laugh trips we had over my mother's freshly baked brownies. for oreos dunked in milk while we listened to the radio waiting for some contest so we could call the DJ just for fun. for the April Fool's Day prank you pulled on me when you said your baby sister was rushed to the hospital. for the fun times we had before prom buying magazines and deciding what dress to wear, for the countless girl-talks, for the heart-to-heart talks, for your company when i'd get bored. for the Baskin Robbins trips and Corniche tambay. for being like a sister to me, for your bellyache laughter that's absolutely contagious, for your siblings that i absolutely love because you guys are a fun bunch, for our planned road-trip when i get there, for that one time when we got our hair-cut together and walked to the Benetton place only to be followed by some weird guy. for the hilarious time when a weird guy came up to us and talked to us in Tagalog but we pretended with our British accents that we couldn't understand a single word. for hanging out at Liwa Center for the sake of doing something other than be bored and for the Rubber Ducky you bought for me!

oh, how could i forget? that one time we played a prank on Darwin, Gie, and Sherwin pretending that we were hot chicks from the American Community School. bwahaha!!! they were stuttering! remember? fun times!

You deserve all the best in the world, dei! you're a special person-- a thousand times more than you think you are. don't settle for anything less. i hope you find the "someone" who deserves you. mwah!

thanks for being who you are. love you lots!
