A letter from Aug 09, 2022

Time Travelled — 9 months

Peaceful right?

congrats, hi self? how are you doing? if you are curious about how you are doing right now, honestly, you're not doing so well. you are having a nervous breakdown right now. i'm going to send this letter to you when the 22-23 school year ends. you're lonely. you don't have any friends right now, but i hope you will have at least one in the future. i just realized how bad i am at socializing. any changes in the future? you are a sophomore right now, and you are going to be a junior when you receive this. i mean, try to understand me. this is all new to me, and the education system here is really different than in the philippines, or should i say somewhat more advanced.. you are going to be fine yourself. i will try to socialize tomorrow. i can do this so the future me will be proud of myself. the main reason why i'm having a hard time socializing is because of my accent. i still have a filipino accent, but it's okay. english isn't my first language, so what do you expect? i don't feel very confident speaking english because when it comes to speaking, i keep forgetting the right words. but when it comes to writing, i can say that you're alright. you're doing well. i really hope that my future self has friends while reading this. i hope you will write a reflection or reply to this letter when you receive it. this is something i never thought i would go through; it's like the fictional character in books who walks alone and doesn't have any friends in the corridor or cafeteria. it is so embarrassing and awkward, so i really hope you make at least 1 or 2 friends while reading this. fighting!! and one more thing !! you remember what ourself promised right now? that when you get adjusted and used to it and meet a lot of friends, don't be like other kids who think they are cool. i hope you still don't know how to cuss and choose your friends. and last, when there's a new student or transferee, please talk to them and be friends with them. don't make them feel what you're feeling right now.
