RIANNA MARIE ABADIA;
THIS IS IT WOMAN. YOU ARE OFFICIALLY DITCHING US. :*(
It only seems like yesterday when I first met you in grade 8. Oh yes, those were the good old days. Mall-ratting every Saturday while “guy hunting” and seeing Ryan Nacky everywhere at freaking Richmond Centre. Remember your grade 8 birthday party? Mall, movie, sticker pictures… ahhh so typical! And the video camera! What happened to it? And then five years later… look how much we’ve changed!
You are definitely the loud, fun party girl who can always keep anyone entertained with your wonderfully hilarious jokes, expressions, trying-to-be-serious talks and even when you’re angry… even if you just met someone for the first time. That’s the one thing I love so much about you. You can get along with everyone and you’re always making us laugh until our stomach is hurting like crazy; the lunchtime entertainment, your XTC dance, the jokes and imitations, the parties, the time you got drunk off one cooler at my party when we were 14, how you’re on the phone 24/7 with the sunshine of yours at the moment, the time you were high and went up to the principal who just thought you were acting normal, our bubble tea runs, your old 9:00 curfew, how your eyes always cross when you’re making fun of someone, and the list goes on… and on. You are truly a unique person.
I’m so glad that I met someone like you. Without you, highschool (and life in general) wouldn’t have been the same for anyone. You’ve touched so many peoples lives with your loving, extraordinary and vivacious personality. You’re also an exceptional friend; someone who will be there to listen, give advice or help with some bitching and/or ass-kicking. I know you’re only gone for 4 years (unless you decide to move to the States), but 4 years without Rina?! That’s just unimaginable!!! I’m not joking either!
Girl, we are gonna miss you soooo much.
But no crying ok? You have to think of your make-up!
Please please please come back when you get your break next year. We’ll even pick you up in the scooby-doo van (if it hasn’t broken down already by then) and it’ll even have a sign on it and Amy will be throwing magic pills at you right when you get off the plane. One day we’ll come visit you and like you said, we’ll rent a big yacht and party hard!
But for now, we better keep in touch! How about we call weekly MSN Meetings and webcamming sessions! That way, we can also make sure you won’t turn into a smelly FOB or else you’ll have no friends when you come back (other than the FOBs of course *shudder). Technology today is great, isn’t it?
I guess with you going away shouldn’t be bad. That just gives us a great excuse to PARTY HARD and GO ALL OUT (Rina style) when you come back!
And btw, I’ll take your place as the “tallest” even though I’ve always been taller than you and you’ve been in denial all these years. We’re not in grade 8 anymore! Hehe.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH BITCH!!
