So, It's someone's birthday (or maybe not because Im slow at writing these its almost 1am)

We aren't super close anymore but I still felt the need to write this.

To Em

I don't know what to say, other than happy 13th birthday. You were a massive part of my life this year and even though we don't really talk, I wish we did. You brought my smile in the darkest times. You text me in class (okay that wasn't a good idea but uhhhh still) and made me feel okay. You knew everything about me, and I still laugh at the fact you told me to hit my brother on the head with a broom.

I don't know what it was. There's something about you that just makes me smile (and a lot of other people smile) and I can't pinpoint it. But it's there. Em, you've been through so much this past year and there's been a lot of hard times ( and there still will be because life is crappy, the end. Lets just hope for less-crappy) but you somehow still made my happy, and so many other happy. Things always get better Em

You're literally amazing in every way. You are hilarious and everything. You're Emily. You don't need to be any more Em, Your perfect. I know your probably reading this with a 'I'm PeRfEcT' fake mindset. But you are. I swear.

You were the first person I actually felt like I had a strong friendship with. I didn't know what friendship was before that. Not even in real life (because I'm a socially awkward turtle which nobody likes). You made me feel like I was worth something.

Let's not go any more into my sob sob sob story about my depressing life (which is still pretty depressing but ay life is life)

Your encouragement for my dance videos literally boosted my confidence about my awful dancing enough that I actually did improv in my ballet class (it wasn't really optional, but lol my English teacher said that about some essay to read in front of the class and I just cried till I didn't have to do it)

Though I can't really call myself an Ikea Glass Coffee Table anymore (I've discovered my sexuality) and you aren't a toothpick anymore, It's something that I'm gonna keep with me. It was really nice to feel like I didn't have to have a label for the time I was questioning, And I can only thank you for that.

Em, we aren't super close anymore, but you changed my entire life. Thank you so much, because without you, who knows what it could have been? Would I even be here?

You deserve the world, ily <3. I hope your 13th year is better than any other and you finally get to hit someone with your tap shoe

I love you em, I always will
