Time Travelled — 12 months

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, I hope when you're reading this you're past the point of thinking about the MCAT. Your past self is struggling during this grind, test date coming up in like 1.5 months... o.o But OMG you graduated college!!! Congrats babes xxx Hot girl with a hot girl degree (Music right?). I hope you're ENJOYING YOUR SUMMER! because you deserve it just take this summer to relax before your gap year(s), which I hope you're staying in STL for... Hope the parents "let" you and you're gonna live with Tin? And you have a cat???! Please if not go to PetSmart rn and grab one. Or your nearest shelter tbh. Just out of curiosity how's the dating life going? Ik this time last summer you were going through a lot of change and reflection post break up :p But I hope you fully enjoyed the college dating scene your last year?? Hope the lineup is diverse... Tbh I kinda wrote this on a whim after seeing someone talk about it on Twitter so I'm burning my little candle, listening to Omar Apollo's new song (Archetype) laying in my bed in my Texas family home. So not much more to say just wanted to check in and give you a little nice surprise :D Please keep being the #girlboss #steminist you always are. Spend your money WISELY (don't run up that credit card bill bc you're becoming a proper adult now and can't be depending on mommy and daddy for everything if you want REAL FREEDOM!) Be real, not perfect <3 (omg "look at her now" is playing as I wrap up please listen as you read this lolz) Bye, and keep being the bad girl (read BAD GYAL) that you are ;)
