Happy Nineteenth!!! 🎉🎉🎉 I know it’s still 5 AM there but I’m here anyway. Just got off the plane, zazzed off of awful airplane coffee. I hope today is great!!! It may seem scary that this is your last teenage year, but I promise life is a gradient instead of hard lines. Teenagers are made up. And I don’t think real adults exist until like at least thirty. Do you have any plans today? I wish I could’ve made you something but school is such a thing right now. I wish I could’ve made been there every year but… I don’t like missing every teen year. You’re still nine in my head because I don’t know anything else. To think of all that’s wrong now…
It’s so cold in here. I hope it’s warmer where you are. A guy tried to mansplain seats to me on the plane then kept getting up when the seatbelt light was on. Fools all around. I hope it is calm and quiet and okay where you are and you have a nice day with some friends and get something you like. I love you so much I’ve wrung all the words to say about it out like a towel. You know what it’s like to be us. Stay safe Soren. You deserve better than everyone we knew.
With love
Alice
P. S. Please god let the heater work faster. Help me Soren. Someone came in and opened the windows here while I was gone. Complain if that happens at your student housing (nobody should be in your room?). It’s 44 out.
