Cheers to the future !

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, Hey, hope you're doing well! I'm a little bored right now so I thought I would write this. I'm probably going to forget that I even wrote it so this is probably a surprise, haha. Hmm, what to say... Well, I hope that school is good. I have lost a lot of my motivation at the moment but I can't wait for it to come back! Also, a little side note: I'm eating banana bread right now! It's homemade too :) It is quite delicious, if I may say so myself. Life is pretty strange right now because of the corona virus (should that be capitalized?) and everything, but I am crossing my fingers that by the time I'm reading this it will be at least somewhat back to normal. I have liked having an excuse to stay home so often, and the every-other-day school model is also nice, but at the same time I miss before. Oh, the great before. I always think that before was better. Before the virus, before high school, before I grew up. I really wish I could go back. But I can't, so I'll look forward for the future instead. I suppose I should ask you some questions while I'm here so... here goes nothing: - Are you still painfully shy and awkward? - Do you still like Twenty One Pilots? You had better. - Do you still read??? If you don't, then I think this letter may have been sent to the wrong person. (That or I have just drastically changed. I am hoping that it's the first option though.) - On that note, what was the last book you read? - Do you have any more of an idea of what you want to be when you "grow up"? Please say that you have some direction and don't still avoid that question and thought like the plague—or pandemic, I should say ;) - Has your humour changed at all? Or are puns still your thing? - Have you kept any of your friends or gotten new ones? - Are you happier? - Have you dyed your hair or gotten any piercings? I currently want to bleach my hair and maybeee cut it short, along with get a septum piercing. Has that changed? - This is a bit stupid but are you dating anyone? Who am I kidding, probably not. - I'm just rambling now but have you moved houses? If so is it nice? - Also, what is your room like? Mine is pretty boring as you know so hopefully you've improved your decoration skills. - Do you have a job now? And are you actually saving your money or blowing it on anything and everything that catches your eye? - This is general but what else has changed? Anything that I haven't mentioned that's new? I can't really think of what else to add, so I guess I'll end this here. Before I go though, I really really hope that you're happy. I haven't been doing so hot if you don't remember but I will do everything I can to be better by the time you're reading this letter. Well, bye! Have a good rest of your day or evening or whatever time you're reading this! For reference, it is Saturday, February 20th, 2021, 7:12 PM right now. And I'm home alone (with my brother of course) :p Deuces, Mahlet

Dear PastMe,

Wow. Well, you were right. I did forget about this email, but I'm glad I did. It made receiving it all the more fun. To answer your questions:...
