The song is lovely and well crafted and is a reflection of how brilliant you are as writer and a musician! I am sorry this is one of the few times I comment on things. The essay was so beautiful too. It's a gift to linger in bed on a rainy day, with your thoughts or just the sound of the drops hitting the window, the gray skies providing respite from the tropical heat. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and memories and I am going to look up the thoughts you mentioned.
When you have ADD as a kid, car rides are an overwhelming amount of stimuli that oddly amounts to a sense of calm. Thanks for briefly taking us back to that.
Niki ❤️ I felt this so deeply. It is magical to me that you can say with words so beautifully something that we both shared, completely unaware that the other felt the same. Even though it feels like a short time in retrospect, I remember it feeling like it dragged on forever when it was unraveling. My memories of school in Manila are not very pleasant, but talking to you, reading this, feels healing. I feel seen. It is so exciting where we both are in our lives now. ❤️

I wish young Niki and I were in the same school. I could’ve been her friend to pass notes with.
