HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SOUL BESTIE!! (CACTY hehe @reveriies thats u)

Sorry I'm getting worse and worse at doing these at midnight lol your girl has the attention span of a turtle (do turtles have short attention spans? it seems like they would so..) and I'm sorry T_T. But our birthday post traditions are honestly something I loveeee so much, how else can we look back each year and cringe and reminesce over how old we've gotten hehe?? TBH my day started out kinda crappy but I feel like I'm getting more and more cheerful as I'm writing these messages LOL YAY. But time for that general overview of being 24, I think we got to see each other a fair bit because I ended up visiting pretty often this past fall/winter so I'm happy about that! It's always so nice to catch up, despite the random gaps we always manage to try and fill each other in about the big stuff in life. And somehow we end up always going through similar things in life haha if that's not fate then I honestly don't know what is :') See even life is telling us that we're meant to be best friends #cheesy. Is it silly that I'm actually listening to the Gazette as I type this at work to get me extra nostalgic? But in honestly (I've also probably said this each year oops) I still look back on those days where we would just sit at prince edward island park and listen to kagrra and breaking benjamin and melt all our feelings into the songs. I can still feel the sun shining and the blue sky seems etched into my memory. I'm really grateful to have met you when I did that one day in grade five and to have gone through so many silly but necessary phases in our lives. I definitely wouldn't have have been the same person and I don't think I would have had as many precious memories without you! I truly hope this year will be amazing for you and that you find what you're looking for! I know new beginnings are currently happening and possibly more so hehe but do remember that I'll always be here no matter what to listen and rant ^_^ I hope this year brings us lots more catch up sessions and MAYBE one day we will live in the same city again (that's something that's forever on my wishlist) whether it be Calgary or Seattle or maybe a new exciting undiscovered city (ATLANTIS)?? But really! I think anything is a lot less scary when we're together so I really cherish that :) Sooo if I haven't re-iterated it yet you're suuuuper important to me and I'd like hope you know!!!!! ALSO omg the sun came out as I was writing this IS THIS ANOTHER SIGN? #fate but GO ENJOY YOU'RE DAY NOW. and I hope you're eating lotsa cake and sweets and I hope this entire message mde some kinda sense.

Love, Leafy (lmao I got it right time)

Time for our once a year return to tumblr - I honestly don’t know if you still check this haha, maybe you’ll get a notification if I tag you @reveriies. It’s really craaazy how fast time is flying by, I’m just checking our last few tumblr posts and it’s been all birthday posts. How many years has it been since we were constantly scrolling through tumblr in our free time and reblogging everything and obsessing over the gazette and whatever bands we were obsessed with? Like Brandon haha. I’m so happy you have so many of his posts saved. It’s a weird feeling thinking back to that time, being in junior high, then high school, then university - and now here we are, the working life. I’m super grateful to have had you in my life for all those years. Even though half the time we weren’t in the same school, or even in the same city for that matter. I feel like no matter how far away we are from each other, we’ll always be connected somehow.  I know things are kinda confusing right now, with work and life in general. It’s strange being in a place where we don’t have any huge milestones left, and we’re just set off to walk whatever path we chose. But I think no matter what you decide to do, you’ll be able to do it beautifully! Adult life is definitely a struggle, but I think we’re doing alright, right? I know things can be stressful and crazy but remember you have an amazing coworkers, and friends, and family and that’s cause you’re an amazing gal yourself (: I will always be here for you no matter what!!  Okay time to take a lighter turn IDK I’m feeling very nostalgic for some reason ahahaha. Probably cause I reread all the birthday posts and end up thinking about how much time has passed and how we’ve changed. Buttttt I hope you’re having a great daaaaay so far!! With lots of cake!! UGH and you need to visit me soon so I can take you to eat lots of yummy desserts and coffee and brunch places in seattle! I’m still waiting for the day we can be in the same city but I’m grateful we’re just a lot closer distance wise so I got to see you a lot more this past year. Thanks for always making time for me everytime I come homee (I know Sven gets jelly :p) and do know that I loveeee our coffee/brunch/anything dates the most!! 

Okay I think the one thing that hasn’t changed about these posts is that my thoughts are all over the place every single time. oops. haha but all in all IDK if I got my point across, I’m just super happy that you’re in my life!! 

Thanks for being my faaaavorite person!! Stay perfect bestie<3  Sincerely,

I haven’t been on tumblr in forever, but I can’t bear to be the one to break our tradition haha, altho IDK if you’ll actually even see this. I’m actually writing this in between studying for my midterm tomorrow, so my thoughts are gonna be totally jumbled but I hope you don’t mind! Anyways, lets go down that long road of reminiscing.. I hope the pictures I sent have been helping haha. It’s ridiculous how all of a sudden you look and it’s like, holy shit we’re actually growing up. Could we have imagined it those 10 something years ago, that we would be about to graduate from engineering, with full time jobs lined up, and still remain as close if not closer best friends as we were all those years ago? It’s like at this point, I don’t ever expect to find anyone who can understand me and fit as well together with as we do. Maybe we really were twins in our past life or something LOOL. Even though we’re both going down our separate ways, I’m so glad that I can always look back and we’d still be making so many memories together, whether from Stampede with everyone to being front row to 3 doors down, to food festivals in the summer and finally getting to see the Gazette. Speaking of the Gazette, do you still remember this? https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151397007655370&set=p.10151397007655370&type=3&theater 

And we have so much to look forward to in the future too. I hope we’ll get to go to lots of concerts together and I’m really looking forward to your Seattle visits! I feel like I can at least look forward to being a whole 3 hours plane ride closer to you guys in Calgary. And maybe who knows, a few years down the road and maybe we’ll get to live in the same city together (finally) whether that be Toronto or Seattle or somewhere totally different. It’s our twenties and we have so much to look forward to! Thank you for always being there for me every time I have to rant or talk about something, I don’t know what I’d do without youu! I hope you know that I’m always here for whateverrr you need, and I really hope you have the most perfect day today (or this weekend if you’re celebrating then)!! When i come back this summer we will eat lots of yummy cake and dessert to make up for all the birthdays I miss :( 

HAPPPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE CUTEST BESTIE IN THE WHOLE WOOOORLD <3
