A birthday card that I’m to late to send by snailpost.

One of my best friends. The glorious and wonderful Panda have her Birthday today! And that must be celebrated! So therefore I’m going to tell the world about her, in a sort of amusing and loving way.

She is one of the shortest people I know, but that don’t bother me much unless going by the escalator and she stands on the wrong step and I end up having to bend over to even see the top of her head, but then we switch. She shares my love of books, and when she comes to visit me, I almost always push some new books I know she haven’t read onto her. And talking about books can keep us going for hours. Or anime, or manga, or food, or cooking, or any other of our shared loves. She is one of those people who stands for being who she are, holding her head high and doing what she wants when she wants it. Not conforming to a society with to many rules about how to act in certain situations and what to do with your free-time.

I’ve known her for many many years now. I think almost 10. And we have done some crazy stuff together, and this summer we might embark on our biggest adventure yet. The idea is to go by car to Norway and just drive around, watch the nature, camp, improvise cooking, read in relaxing settings. Stargaze and maybe go by canoe into a fjord or something or another. Trying to get away from the hectic life in civilisation and go to a forest where nobody is. We have travelled together before, but nothing this big. And that’s going to be awesome.

And she is coming here! On Monday! I’m quite happy about it ^^, and have the evil plan of making her my slave for the week. I’ll be working as normal, but she will be guarding my apartment at day, against burgles, superman, and spiders. My evil lair shall encompass this minion of mine, and she shall have the food ready for me when I come home, and extra points if she manages to do this with a fresh loaf of bread. I think she said something or another about using my awayness to study, but I know her. I know my collection of movies. It’s going to be interesting to see how she fares in the face of the temptation my castle of Evil shall give her.

And this one, is especially for her. Because I think of her every time I hear it.
