20 things to 20 people - part I

Okay, it's infectious. Since Maria has her own, and Theresa has one as well, I just felt like making my own as well. :)

Here is a list of twenty things I'd like to tell twenty people. See if you can find yourself on the list!

1.) You aren't just my niece; you're one of my best friends too. :) I love you, and thanks for being such a wonderful part of my life!

2.) I've always admired how bubbly you are and how unique your personality is. Just keep your focus, and I'm sure you'll achieve great things. :) Here's to spreading femininity in a sea of testosterone! Haha.

3.) You've always been one of my partners in crime when it comes to coming up with nefarious plot bunnies. (We started coming up with these "plots" in 3rd grade! That was eleven years ago!) I'm glad that you can bring out the inspiration in me. I hope we can write together again someday when we aren't so busy, and I hope that Gin and Tenshi will continue to be best friends, just like their authors. ;)

4.) You're another of my partners in crime when it comes to coming up with plots to write (oh, God, the chronicles of Victoria), and you're one of my friends who have pretty much borne witness to my entire life. Thanks for coloring my life, and we ought to have lunch together soon!

5.) You are sweet, you know that? :) You planned a surprise birthday party for me! Haha. I miss you! You'll always be a winner to me.

6.) I miss you too! You planned the birthday party for me too! You're still my first "husband," no matter what. ;)

7.) You're my Haring Fernando, and you'll always be. ;) Hope buhay UP is doing you well. Miss you.

8.) I would love to work with you. I know you'll become a great doctor. Good luck with BS Chem! But take time out to see me (and us) because I miss you!

9.) Sometimes I feel that I don't really understand the inner workings of your mind, but that's fine. You're one of my friends, and that's all that matters.

10.) We used to be best friends. It's too bad that you (and I) had to change. But don't think that I've forgotten everything we've been through.

11.) It's amazing how we never thought we'd be close. Now, we spend hours upon hours on the phone. :) You're a kindred spirit, and I'm glad that I've gotten to know you; you're a swirl of color (ultramarine or peppermint?) in a sea of gray. (Or rather, in the sea of white that is Nursing.) You know that I'm here to be your friend, no matter what. I love you, dude. :)

12.) I admire how you can light up a room just by being present. I wish I could be as funny as you, but that's something I can't achieve because you have a special brand of your own humor. Too bad your tongue ring's gone!

13.) You can sit on my lap anytime. ;)

14.) I've liked you since first year; you were always pleasant companionship. You're quiet sometimes, but then, so am I, so it's nice to stay with you and be quiet once in a while. Haha. And I'd love to see you dance more!

15.) It's too bad we drifted apart. I tried to remain close friends with you, but I guess things just change. However, know that I'll always be your friend, and I'll always be around in case you need me.

16.) I'm glad I'm over you. It's more fun to hang out with you now that I'm over you.

17.) I think you're a great friend, and you're one of my best guy friends. Thanks for being there for me when I need help. And yes, you make great fridge cake. :)

18.) Thanks for being there for me too. I hope you get yourself a hamster soon. :)

19.) I do admire your leadership qualities. You're very talented, and I can see you going far in life. Good luck with everything, and know that if you need a friend, I'm just around.

20.) I'm getting over you. But I'm glad we're still friends.

There are still so many things I want to say to so many other people, but I guess I'll save that for a part two.
