One day, I saw a comment on Autostraddle, I can’t remember how I figured (i can’t remember the article) but i knew that she’s Filipino. I got excited because i rarely see Filipino readers comment on there, so I sent her a message right away (I can’t remember what I said). That was June 2012. 1000++ text messages, 100++ emails (and photos exchange) later, I went to visit my sister, which is about 2 hrs from where she lives. I decided why not meet her. Fast forward to this photo.
By the way, we’re not girlfriends! (a lot of stories like this end up being in a relationship, this is not one of those, this is the boring kind, lol) she’s in a happy long distance relationship with a girl in Canada whom she looovvvvees so much, while i’m single as fuck, but also happy.
This photo was taken in September 2013 by another friend of mine (who volunteered to accompany me just in case I’m meeting a fake horrible person, we can just tsk tsk leave!). We’re in a museum/park. That’s Lj on the left. I’m the one on the right. I may look like shit on this photo, but my heart was actually smiling because i can’t believe how well everything turned out. Seriously, two of my super amazing-est friends, in one place, no judgement, just fun (never mind the shitty weather)? My only regret is that I wasn’t able to give Lj a proper hug when we left, but there will be next time…
