HIII EMILYYY happy happy 18th birthday!!!! yayayayay finally legal :00000 i hope you have the most amazing day today surrounded by all the people you love and i hope you eat super yummy food!!! i'm so grateful that ldc gave us the opportunity to cross paths because you have always been such a warm presence in my life whenever i get to see you <3 i remember you from your delegate year and i was SOOO excited when you applied to be a fys the year after! i could not be more proud of you and how much you've grown these past 3 years, especially seeing you as an RS and KRP last year. i think i was really able to see your leadership flourish when i was in your diversity circle discussion up at camp. the way you carried yourself and that conversation was so inspiring and you definitely made a bigger impact on everyone than you realize. you're already doing such an amazing job as delegate coordinator and i can't wait to see everything you accomplish throughout your first year on AB! you're so creative and hardworking and overall such a perfect person to lead LDC. i have always admired how observant and caring you are to everyone around you, especially those who are younger than you. you have such a welcoming energy and always make a constant effort to make sure everyone feels included. i think you're definitely someone i've always admired from a distance so im super excited to get to know you more this year as we work together to plan camp (AND RECRUIT 200 DELEGATES !!!!!!) thank you for always being so kind and supportive of me whenever we talk. you always brighten up my day and make me smile :'). you're such a role model to so many people, including me, and i hope this new year of life gives you all the opportunities you're searching for and so much more <3

YAYAYA HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAYYYYY HAVE THE BESTESTESTEST DAY BC U DESERVE IT

heyy emilyyy! happy 18thh wahooooo its such a huge milestone and you should be nothing but proud of yourself who you've become up to this point. i always say this but i genuinely could not have done last year of ldc without you by my side. thank you for the constant reassurance and check-ins while we were co's and even to this day. i still remember us being in the same staff screening group in 2023 and going through our fys to ldc 2024 and now ldc 2025; i love how much you've grown as a person in terms of how you choose to express yourself and advocate for yourself and especially others. the amount of impact, patience, and care you show for others is truly admirable emily. have an amazing birthday!

nothin but love,

EMILLYYYYY HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYY!!! I can’t believe you’re 18 already!! I still remember when we first talked as we got paired up as a mentee pair with Jayden as a mentor in our FYS year. You always approached me with kindness and energy even when I used to be the introverted and shy person at the beginning of my staffing times and I still appreciate you for doing that cause it helped me adjust to the LDC environment and you became one of my first friends in LDC! Ever since then, whether during our FYS year, returning year, or even this year as AB, you’ve always been someone I respect and strive to be like. Your genuine kindness and care for everyone are things that sometimes surprise me to see that come from someone younger than me and this makes me remind myself to act on and become a better person as well. I think you are someone I’ve learned from the most in the past few years and I hope you know that you inspire so many people whether they are new delegates, other staffers like me, or even adult AB members too. Thank you so much for being someone who always makes me smile after talking! It always brightens up my day and helps me be who I am at LDC!! HAVE THE BEST BIRTHDAY EVER YOU DESERVE IT EMILY!!

YOUR BIGGEST FAN,

Jaemin (and also our mentor Jayden in the picture)

Omg I can't believe it's been 3 years since we first met. Honestly, I'd say it feels both long and short because I feel like so much has happened in these pat few years but I also feel like I have known you for so much longer. You are genuinely the sweetest person I know! You always take into account the feelings of others and truly pay attention to seemingly small details which truly matter to others. Your care for other people is only one of your many strengths. You always seem to know the right thing to say to make everyone around you smile and your wholesome nature only adds to your cute humor. I am honestly so lucky to have met you, become friends, and grow with you throughout these years being on LDC! You are a friend I truly feel lucky to have and words cannot fully describe the positive impact you have had on my life. I can't wait to witness all the joy you continue to have throughout your life as well as the happiness you'll continue bringing into the lives of those around you as you continue to grow!

With lots of love,

Michelle :D

OH EM GEE HELLO CO!!

this is just making me realize how old i am 😭but also i think it just goes to show how incredibly mature and responsible you are. i got a first hand experience of this when you were leading my diversity circle activity and i really admired your ability to make everyone feel welcomed and safe especially given how sensitive the material was. but on the flip side you're also so funny like the earliest i can recall is you doing the toad impression at staff talent show LMAO that's genuinely a treasured ldc memory of mine

when i heard that you were my co on the call i was super duper excited because i had always wanted to get to know you more and now we're working alongside together!!!! i'm looking forward to what we're gonna do together as dc's and i hope you have the most incredible birthday ever!!

AHHHUFUHEUH HAPPY BIRTHDAYYY <3

Even though we're the same age you have become someone I can't help but look up to. You are literally the sweetest person ever and the way you treat everyone with such kindess and care is something I admire and strive to have as well. I was so happy you were my pack leader last year and I am so so soo excited to work with you again this year. You are already doing such an amazing job and I love everything you have contributed to LDC. You always bring so much comfort and joy into LDC and I will forever be grateful for you. You care so deeply for others and always know exactly what to say to comfort them. You always seem find a way to cheer me on and brighten my day whether it is through a wholesome reel or funny joke you never fail to make me smile. You're actually so funny and humor is like one of my favorite things ever. Thank you for everythinggg. I love you so so much and I wish you all the best for this year. I hope you have the best birthday everrrr (enjoy becoming an adult :D )
