hAPPY (late) BIRTHDAY MY CHILD :'')
you've gotta stuff yourself with amazing food because, well, not everyday is your birthday :)). istg, you better not be studying on your bday or i'm literally going to get the next flight to canada and beat your ass >:(. watch some kdramas, listen to some bts songs, watch kpop crack videos, and rELAX. i mean, you're 17 now, you've gotta reward yourself somehow- like, reward yourself for working so hard last year, getting sUCH a high sat score, for struggling in school and pushing yourself at your own pace. i literally cannot describe how proud i am of you- I still remember when we both wouldn't stop complaining about our parents (we still do pfft), asian expectations, school stress, and so much more- literally, you suffered through it all, did so well in school (don't lie to me, i know you get amazing grades), AND did well on one of the biggest exams for American high schoolers when you're canadian. you know how amazing that is?!
