happy 19th birthday dear mabel.
you are one really unpredictable best friend and with you around, life is always a rollar coaster ride. you play the love hate game so well, being in an awesome mood one minute and act like the whole world has just pissed you off in another. you really dont let anybody get to you and thats probably what attracted me to you. me having a weak minded letting people bully me all the time and you having a domineering "i dont care about you im going to do it my way" attitude makes you and me like soya bean grassjelly and chocolate fudge brownie with vanilla ice cream. totally opposite but put together oh so good. the best part is throughout all our differences i know you'll own whoever bullies me. and you'll never fail to stand up for me even if im the one being a noob. (of course you'll scold me for being so bimbo, but thats not the point)

we talked about celebrating every single birthday together with alex, but this year was really pretty different. i wish you were more open to celebrating with us, but i do understand you have school and all that. i also know you feel like i havent been spending enough time with you, but if you just think back, i tried many times to catch up and stuff but we just never got the chance to. all i want is to hang out one on one with you again like we used to do, even though things are different now that i have one more person who means alot to me.

however i wished you'd understand that despite this, it never changed the way i feel about you.
all im saying is, it doesnt matter who enters my life, i value your friendship just as much. you're pretty much like family to me, and i know i sound mushy right here but i've always hoped we'd grow old together and migrate to australia with your jap hubby (even though i know its really ________ that you like, HAHA) , with little jap singaporean kids in tow. it does make me sad if we cant spend time together and although i just never built up the courage to say it, it makes me sad when you reject all the initiative i took to meet up with you but i trust you have your reasons.
i really treasure you despite everything we go through. school, boys, mood swings, pms and politics; no matter how major the fight is on the richter scale, i hope what lasts will only show what me and you are really made of.

ten more minutes to your birthday. i hope you have the time of your life.
