Just read ur entry about your birthday! I was stunned to say the least, cos this is almost how I felt some time ago when I turned 25.

We used to be (I don’t wanna use “used to” but you tell how can we be closer when you’re on the opposite corner of the earth, hehe), so, we used to be quite close while in Shanghai – you are the first foreigner I met in Shanghai, you are the first classmate I met, you’re the first person whose birthday we celebrated in Shanghai, you were the one who to a great extent gave a push to my development, and one that I rarely managed to understand fully….
To me you’ve always been kinda special, shame on me if I’ve never managed to show you this. You should know who you are and what you can, so listen: I’ve never been sorry about anything I’ve done, NEVER! Nor should you!! I’ve went through thinking that every single step in my life is just escaping from where you belong, but it’s not actually the case – we all are just developing, dear. Like a butterfly, you will need some time, will have to eat many many leaves, will have to have the patience to stay locked, but then you will come out as a WONDERFUL butterfly! Then, spread your astonishing wings and fly up to the skies, fly wherever you want!!!
Because every single step in our lives means both winning and losing, but it depends on you how long will you cry for what you’ve lost and how soon you will find it reborn in something new!!!
Anyway, always remember one thing: DON’T STOP DRAWING THE PICTURE OF YOUR LIFE, EVEN IF YOU CAN NEVER USE AN ERASER!
In a way, I love you, and all your family and friends do, so BE WHAT YOU ARE! HAPPY SECOND QUARTER-CENTURY!!!

Seriously though, are you alright? *tickles*
