First of all, I want to wish you a really happy and amazing 24th birthday. It would be your 25st going by Korean standards. 

I'm sorry that I didn't manage to post a chapter in one of my stories to celebrate your birthday. The overly crazed writing and incident which had occurred the last couple of days have exhausted me both mentally and physically. So I hope that this first and last blog post of mine will somehow make up for it.

I've never dedicated an entire article to an idol so I'll try my best to make this one good. I still remember I had stumbled upon Apink by accident and LUV was being performed on a particular music show. I was immediately enthralled by the song, dance, and the fact that every member looked gorgeous. Because of LUV, I went on to discover Mr Chu and No No No. And the rest as they say, is history. 

It would have been 3 years this November. And I had genuinely thought that I would be able to cross that significant milestone. I would probably have done a tiny celebration in my mind on the day, knowing that I've loved a single group for so long. But as life likes to throw me certain curveballs repeatedly, that plan might not materialize afterall.

So let me just take this opportunity to express my gratitude of how you, Yoon Bomi have made my life better because of your existence. Of course you will never read it but it gives me slight consolation to know that I've added one more to the number of positive articles about you.

There is no other idol that I know who is as multi-talented as you are. Sure, there will always be people who disagree but to me, you are wonderful. You can sing, dance, emcee, beat box, has great sports sense, is really funny, doesn't mind being the clown to make others laugh, cook, and many more that I've missed. I would have been able to come up with a more comprehensive list if it wasn't for the ungodly hour and...other factors. 

Many lives have been made better because of you Yoon Bomi, mine included. Your amazing self would also explain why members like Chorong, Naeun and Eunji like you so much. I hope they can give you a decent celebration despite being busy with schedules. 

I am eternally grateful for the joy and laughter you have brought me up until now. As you were the sole reason for my continued existence ever since then, I was hoping to replicate it when the unforseen appeared. Sadly it just wasn't effective this time round. I guess my luck has finally run out.

I should probably round this up before this celebratory post turns into something dark. Hence I will once again, from the bottom of my heart, wish you, Yoon Bomi, a smooth and successful career. Always stay healthy and happy, being loved by family and friends. And may you eventually meet someone who truly knows how to cherish you properly like the queen that you are.
