Dear FutureMe,
By the time I'm writing this it's around 21:00, 26th of September 2022. You are currently studying for your tests for 3 subjects for tomorrow and I guess I'm not that concerned about it because I kept on procrastinating, I still have Drafting and Music to study, and I hope I'll ace them or at least have a passing score. The laundry is running with my uniform inside, I need to dry them later, but I want to sleep and just don't give a care about the 1st quarter exams.
I'm looking forward to the 3rd of October 2022 because in God's Grace, hopefully, I'll be getting my Student Permit because I really wanted to try driving, my lifetime savings since 3rd grade was wiped out because of the course I took for this Student Permit, it would be really great if you've recovered the money by the time you are reading this.
When you encounter any struggles then the best way to care is not to care. Just think about it for a minute and forget about it for the rest of the week, continue to be greedy of pleasure but please IN A GOOD WAY! Find hobbies that you are deeply interested in! I am hoping that you had learned coding even just a tad, you are 18 for Pete's sake. Wew that's a little cringe for a non-native English Speaker like me.
You always wanted to travel around the world especially Europe and your dream vacation was Venice, Italy. Well considering the time and the situation we have now you are still probably dreaming of visiting Europe! But that's fine, dream and daydream if that's what keeps you going. It's still really far and a lil bit impossible to achieve anyway, I guess.
By the time you are reading this I would want to have a decent paying freelance job that allows me to buy unnecessary things and purchase the in-game cosmetics that you've always wanted! I am expecting you to have decent knowledge in website development and maybe data analysis. Still, I know that paths change but I honestly cannot see myself other than working for the field of technology. I just hope you are being productive as day goes by, compared to myself now, I did not really do anything besides sitting and playing all day. -I'm not proud of this.
So, I'm addicted to Valorant since 2020 but I haven't been really able to play because of classes and school activities. Plat 2 was your peak rating as of this time! But 2 years ago, you always wanted to go higher than that, well, I've realized that games are not that fun when you are busy with something outside of the screen. In spite of that, they are stress relievers for sure!
AS OF THE MOMENT your friends and family are doing good, well it's just sad that Lolo is not there to send us updates about our relatives anymore, and Lola is living with Auntie for the time being. I know that a lot can happen in a span of a year, but I pray that I'll be able to cope with the changes.
In case if I DIE, well.... That's really unfortunate considering I wanna grow old and travel (even though no cash) BUT it cannot be avoided. Always wondered about what is life after ***** and it's a pleasure to experience that welcoming feeling? Will I be able to meet deceased flowers that withered before us, or will it be just pure darkness? I hope heaven is real, yeah, definitely real right?
I am optimistically hoping and praying for a great turn in our lives, may it be a business or something even greater that God allows to share with us.
I hope you are able to acquire a non-pro license and road trip around your place.
I hope you gain friends that are a good influence to you.
I hope you earn money and be able to buy things like your last to the minute wish: drone, a MTB, a DSLR, a 144 HZ monitor. But you cannot buy them as of the moment because your savings are erased because of that SP. Plus, 1 year is a bit short considering I'm to lazy and I really wanna break this habit man. And you areee being a lil bit materialistic.
I hope you'll have good and strong teeth.
I hope you'll grow taller; I'll accept even an inch!
I hope you'll spend time with your mates.
I hope you'll learn to speak up.
I hope you'll be productive
I'm sleepy but I still need to study. In my 4 years of studying in that red school I've never ever gotten a perfect mark on a test. I would really love to try being that person for once but idk. I lack understanding, I guess. And don't forget to update me of the marks you got! (prob. forgotten by then)
Happy Birthday!
and update me about that golden dog and that chip dog, i mean, just things about life
Sincerely yours,
You @ 16
Epilogue
