HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY DEAREST PENGUIN-PLUSHIE-COLLECTING KUROMI-LOVING DANCING-KING GENIUS-PRODUCER SWEETIE-BOY ALLEN!!!!!!
i hope you have the most amazing day filled with love and happiness and warmth and are surrounded by the people that love you most!! eat so much yummy food that you feel like you're going to explode <3 (but don't actually explode we need you on the stage babe)
i wrote you a letter a loooong time ago but it feels wrong that i haven't written one since then! i wanted to show my appreciation for you, what better time to read sappy stuff than on your birthday?
you inspire me in so many ways, especially the fact that you took such a massive gamble to become what you are. it paid off bro!! when i look back at little 21 year old allen looking shy in his debut year, i really see the change and how much you've grown into yourself and into your place in cravity. i'm so incredibly proud of you and i only hope for bigger things to come your way.
honestly, i was in a really uncertain place in my life when i first found you and cravity. i was about to graduate high school, and i was really terrified of what the future held for me because i had absolutely no clue what i'd be doing next. in the beginning, your runtime lives were a huge source of comfort for me, and definitely one of my frequent study buddies hehe... it took me a while to open up to new friends and find my passion, but you played a huge role in helping me open up to others and jump at opportunities wherever i can.
and look at us now!! i'm on track to graduate university this year and head straight into an internship, and you're totally taking the world by storm. i'm actually the same age you were when you debuted, which is a little crazy and feels full-circle to me. i've got a whole new set of worries now, but it only means i made it this far. it truly is a privilege to worry about the big stuff, so when you're feeling low or stagnant at any point in your career, i hope you treat yourself kindly.
ewww sap alert... not me getting choked up on YOUR birthday... just kidding you're so worth getting teary over. i'm hoping that this year is super awesome and prosperous for you, evershine has been an amazing era already and i'm so excited to see what the rest of 2024 holds. over & over is my fave track from evershine and one of my favourites within cravity's whole discography, it's so sweet and nostalgic and feels like something i would have grown up listening to on the radio. i'm positive i'll hear more of your songs in the future, so i'm looking forward to it!!
apart from your music, i hope i'm able to repay your hard work with tangible rewards you can hold and feel (cough cough trophies cough) the music bank win was SO serious for me i was voting like crazy and i felt like i was about to pass out when i was watching the live show... but seeing you make your speeches and celebrate your win felt so special. definitely one of the best luvity moments for me!! i only hope you get to experience many more happier moments as your career goes on, and i'll always be right there to enjoy it with you.
i don't know if i'll ever be able to see you and express my gratitude in person, since i live pretty far from the usual places you'd see in a tour list hehe maybe one day if i become rich and can blow all my money on flights and cravity concert tickets... i live in australia, but wait for me to save up some money before you ever come here please!!! it's super beautiful here in the summer you should totally visit someday you would loveee it.
but maybe in the future i'll put my big girl pants on and visit south korea to see you perform. i would finally be able to put my korean to use after learning it for the past 5 years, 언젠가 러니오빠 급으로 언어실력 키우겠습니당! LOL korean is hard when i have nobody to practice it with, the extent of my practice comes from writing letters in fancafe like this... if you ever wanna start a study group let me know hehehehe i don't think you need it now though. if you ever made tutoring videos i would be seated but i think i would be very distracted by the super handsome face on the screen.
i'll wrap it up here but i love writing to you so i'll be back in the future wait for me... i'll leave a song rec for you! my music taste is amazing so you're welcome in advance <3
