Dear VT

You simply became part of my life. You're like part of it, but also not. I forget that you're a year older than me cause you remind me of a child. But I mean that as a compliment...I think. You just are so carefree and go with the flow that I don't know how you're an adult with a full-time job. But I've seen how curious you are about everything. Such a smart fella. You and I are very different, but you've given me advice and pushed me to do what scares me. You assure me that I'll be okay when I have doubts. I admire how outgoing you are. You walk so confidently and can strike up a conversation with anyone. I always think you know them, but then you tell me you don't. You're full of surprises. Also... I still get flashbacks to you driving us to Alki. I genuinely thought I was gonna die in that car. I don't know how you got that license, but oh man, never again. Remember when New York guy got us into Sakura Con for free? That was an interesting time. I do miss hanging out with you as much as I did when I lived nearby. It's always fun having VT and Emma time. But hey, you can visit me one day, or I can visit you too (as long as you sponsor my trip). P.S. I wanna visit Tamil Nadu... I know you said I won't survive there, but I must visit. I must.
