hi lu!!! merry christmas!! i know we dont really see each other on christmas but ill take this opportunity to tell you how much i miss being with u :(( and i made this to show you just that. i believe ive been very lacking as a friend throughout our friendship and it's even harder now that we're so far apart from each other, but i'm glad at the very least that you still keep me in your life. i hope you know that i'm so grateful that you do, even though i truly don't deserve it, i think. you're so lovely and kind!! and beautiful!! and truly the bestest of people that i have the chance to get to know and be friends with.

i know this year (or two) has been very much a roller coaster ride for you, and i want you to know that i'm so so proud of everything that you've achieved, and how you're surviving (thriving!!!) despite all the struggles you have gone through so far in life, and especially there in australia which is quite literally outside your comfort zone. you're so brave and strong rraaahh and i'm sure you're capable of achieving everything that you put your mind to!! i'm always here behind you, rooting for you, always a huge fan, and sending my thoughts and love all the way from etivac.

i know the holidays are a bit difficult since it's always been the time where you can't help but think of your family back here but i hope this small gift cheers you up through it!! and that it shows how you have us!! thinking of you, missing you a lot, and loving you despite being miles away. you are so loved, lu! always remember that. muah muah chup chup asawa ko!! here lang me always for you, no matter what!! <3
