hello loveys. don’t know if you’ll be able to read this, i know you’re all busy nowadays, but anyway here goes..
thank you, thank you, thank you.. time and again, you guys have helped me through some tough days. whether it’s by dropping by (gulpi de gulat!), by letting me vent, by giving advice or simply being there and listening.. it really does help a lot just to know that you’re there. thank you.
T, you recently wrote your own “love letter” to B, saying that you’re a little bit envious of how close she and P were getting. i have to say, i can relate. you know, these past few years there’s this teeny part of me that’s been envious too. sometimes when the four of us are together, i find myself struggling to relate. it’s like i’m on the outside looking in, as you guys talk about common friends i haven’t met, makeup and fashion in which i’m totally clueless, and just basically share more together.
i know it’s not a conscious decision on your part. you would never deliberately shut me out or make me feel left out. it’s just that the changes in our lives in the past few years have been so drastic, specially in mine, that i find myself struggling to keep up, to relate.
i’m not saying this to get sympathy. it was inevitable: our lives have changed and so have we. but this is no sob story really. bear with me, i’m getting to my point now. 
in spite of this, i am extremely proud. i’m proud of the fact that after more than a decade of friendship, we are still here. i’m proud of the fact that even after all the things i’ve missed out on in your lives because of my own struggles, you’re still there. i’m proud of the fact that even though we may each make new friends separate from our circle, we still confide in each other when times are tough. i’m proud of the fact that no matter how different we all are from each other, together we are still complete. and lastly, i’m proud of the fact that through the years we’ve grown up, but not grown apart. time and distance have somehow softened their impact on our friendship, and for that i am very thankful.
you guys are the best friends anyone could ever ask for. and with all the ups and downs we’ve gone through together in the past, i guess it’s safe to say that we’ll still be friends 10 years down the road.
so cheers to our differences, which somehow still bring us together and make us whole. every single day i’m happy and thankful that the phrase “out with the old and in with the new” won’t ever apply to us. here’s to 2011, another year of smiles, laughter, fishball sessions, impromptu food trips and photo shoots, beach love, and many more. love you beauties!
