Happy birthday Angela! Time flies, and it's time to update your birthday "card" again. As we've known each other for so long, you should know that I'm rather uncreative and so won't be able to give you any surprise

. Like the past x years, I'm not usually in HK during your birthday time and so can only send you my best wishes from afar. It's been great to have you as a friend, even though you said you don't like xyz about yourself there're still many great qualities I see in you, especially your adventurous character! Hope you can slowly tick off your travel list and show us photos of your happy moments. Remember, a year older a year wiser...and the best is yet to come!!
