“she’s real, she’s here”

August 5th, 2004

Dearest Britney,

Today is a celebration day! You might not realize why at first, but the truth is it’s because today makes two months since I saw you (at the Rock in Rio). Everyday I take some time to think about that concert. To me it was more than a concert. It was realizing that you really exist. What made it even more special was the fact that my best friends were there with me. Did you know that they held my hand tight before you came on stage and kept saying, “she’s real, she’s here”. Those few moments hold a big space in my heart, along with every other second I spent screaming your name and singing your songs. You probably don’t remember that day. To you it was just another concert. Strange it is to know that two days later you and Kevin would be getting engaged…
I can’t be long today. I’m at work right now, (supposed to be) working through my lunch hour so that I can leave earlier. But since I was thinking about you, I’d thought it would be a good moment to say “hi”.
Tomorrow, or in my next letter, I promise I’ll take a bit longer, and probably explain things that you probably want to know (like what the hell got into me to just start writing you letters everyday). Well I better go… later on I still want to past by the post office and send this letter off. See you soon!

Nikki
