I see how hard you work every day. Life is disappointing and difficult at times, but you don't loose that happiness and passion for life.

I remember dinners with wine and green tea ice cream.... You letting me drive your BMW... Holding my hand on the way from Vegas... It must have been very uncomfortable considering that you drive stick shift:)
Remember our goodbye at your house? You taught me how to say: Amma, Achan, how are you in your language. You were so touched when I said it...

    Please bear with me if this is corny and you know I’ m weird with expressing feelings but here … So I guess you could get the credit for this, especially since you were “curved” at homecoming around this time last year and you constantly made your efforts to make sure I remembered who you were after that. You either walked me to class or called me “bae” and for real for real I liked it. Winter break (December 26th, 2014) is where this all started and I’m happy I finally sent that text asking you if you wanted to go to the movies.…

    When you read this it will probably be around Christmas time which coincidentally coincides with the date that marks us being together for four months. I know you like it better when we talk about things in person, but lately we’ve been content with seeing each other once on the weekends and sometimes talking on the phone during the week. So hopefully you’re all cocooned up in bed and ready to read cause this letter may be a tad on the longer side. From the first time we met at Ellie and Cassidy’s party I knew you were someone i wanted to know better. The more i got to know you and still continue to get to know you, the stronger my feelings for you grow.…
