Paris! :)
Today it's been 3 years since the first time I ever met you! I can't even believe it's been that long!! It was such a surprise to see you and to be able to meet you and talk to you in person for the first time, but for some weird reason, I felt like I should bring one of your books with me when I went shopping with my sister that day. I've been going shopping on Robertson blvd. all the time ever since I was really little, and I knew you went there a lot, too, but I never expected to see you there. Obviously everyone thought I was crazy for carrying my Heiress Diary around in a shopping bag everywhere I went that day. I realize that seems like the most stalker-ish thing you could do, but I just had a feeling I needed it that day. Now I know what the reason was, though, because the girl who worked at the store you were shopping in saw me holding the book and let me come in and say hi to you.
Meeting you and getting to know you has changed my entire life. Anyone who has gotten to know you beyond what the tabloids present to them could probably say the same. I'm sure I made the worst, most awkward first impression ever, with the book and everything, so thank you so much for remembering me and keeping in touch for so long :). Haha. I promise I'm not a stalker or a hungry tiger. I know how hard it must be to do regular things and to just live your life when there are constantly people taking pictures and asking for your autograph. As I've gotten older I've realized how annoying and invasive I must have been, so if I ever randomly see you somewhere like that again, I'll definitely be sure to not bother you or act crazy. Haha. I hope I can see you again, though, anyway! It's always so much fun. :)
I go on and on about this whenever I get the chance, I know, but I just hope you know how much you mean to me and how much you've always inspired me. I know that nobody is perfect, but to me, you are as close to perfect as most anyone will ever get. Even in your most difficult times, you're always brightening the lives of everyone around you and entertaining us all with your bright, fun personality. No matter what's happened in your life, you've always kept a smile on your face, and you've always stayed the same sweet, fun, funny, spontaneous person that I've always known you to be.
When I was younger, I was in the hospital a lot of times because a doctor gave me too many antibiotics for a sinus infection and I overdosed and had lots of complications. Each time I had to stay in the hospital, I would watch the Simple Life and read Confessions of an Heiress to get my mind off everything. Around that same time, my parents were going through a brutal divorce where the litigation process lasted for almost twelve years. I always felt like my friends, my family, and all the people that were closest to me in my life couldn't relate to what I was going through, and how much all the things I was dealing with at home affected me. I felt so alone sometimes, but whenever I did, I always focused on trying to be more like you. You're so positive, creative, hard working, and driven. You're responsible for so many of the best times in my life, and you've made so many of my dreams come true. Even despite how busy you are, you've always been such a good friend to me. Besides that, I think you're just the greatest role model out there. Not many other people your age run 17 companies, and most anyone else who does has let all their success ruin them. That's not a good look. I'm so proud of the person you are and everything you've achieved, P! Because of you, I know that almost anything is possible, and I'm so much more confident in all of my dreams & aspirations.
Love you!!!!!! xoxoxoxo Malini
