koko 21st bday

He's an awesome guy.
He turns 21 today.
He's on the other side of the world.
I miss him dearly.
I wish I can be there to celebrate his big birthday.

But the most I can do for him now is to dedicate this post to a wonderful guy in my life who's a big 21 today ....

My koko!!

Dearest koko,

How I wish I can be there for your 21st birthday and celebrate it with you. It's always this time of the year where you get really busy with uni and hardly have anytime to celebrate. How I wish I can be back home and try to make it special because turning 21 is a big thing! You're so busy this time of the year but still, it has to be special. It's meant to be big! How often do you turn 21? Hahaha.. but I guess you also won't be able to enjoy such a big party right now because you're so busy and your mind won't be in the celebrating mood.

We were both meant to go for an exchange this semester. You were meant to go to the US and me, Canada. And then, I was planning to visit you in the US during your 21st since it's thanksgiving weekend anyway. Koko, that was meant to be the plan! Hahaha!! I actually thought about this last year. Since last year I was already thinking how I can still celebrate your 21st even if we're not together. But now, it's impossible.

Anyway, thank you so much for what you have given me for the last 19 years. You've always been the one, looking out for me, taking such good care of your little sister. I'm just the luckiest sister on earth, I'm sure others will be very jealous of me. Haha!!

I still remembered last year on your birthday when something bad happened that morning which was purely my fault and yet, you still covered up for me, taking the blame. I felt so bad when it happened and even worst when you said you will cover up for me, protecting me. I guess it's our little secret eh? Thank you so much. I'm sure no other brothers in this world will even think of doing that for their sisters, taking such a big blame. Koko, Thank you.

Thank you for all the small talks in the car during our ride home from university when we're stuck in traffic. Thank you for all the advices for everything. From learning how to show my respect and appreciation to papa and pummy to learning how to be more responsible and organized. Thanks for telling me off in a nice way when I do something wrong or when I am being unreasonable. Thank you for backing me up and supporting me all the while. There's no doubts that we indeed make a good brother-sister team. Wait, not a good one. The BEST brother-sister team!!

You are truly an inspiration to me. Just seeing you juggling between work and studies and succeeding in both just impresses me and I have to admit, you actually made me believed that I can do the same as well. The first half of this year in Auckland, I was so busy with UMSA stuff that I was actually worried with my studies. But just seeing how busy you are and yet being able to still do well, it just made me want to do the same as you. And because of you, I actually performed my best in terms of my studies out of the 3 semesters. Koko, you're truly my role model!!

This is the longest time we've been apart from each other. I do miss waking you up in the morning, preparing your breakfast for you. I miss driving you to uni and sometimes hearing you snore in the car. Hehehehe.. I miss your singing and the bopping of your head in the car. Haha! I miss waiting back at uni for you and then walking to the car together. I miss our small talks in the car on how our day have been. I miss having you coming into my room during dinner time and bounce on my bed just to wake me up for dinner.

Koko, I miss you.
Koko, I love you.

Koko, Happy 21st Birthday and may your days be filled with joy and happiness

Lots of love, hugs and kisses from your lil sis,
~Sher Mayne~
