A letter from May 30th, 2022

Dear FutureMe, The school year ended and we already know how that went so I won't elaborate much on it lol. But overall the school year was pretty good. You know what I am going to talk about the school year. I had lots of fun, the year felt so long yet so short. Let's go over each month and key events or things that stood out to me. August I joined cross country and began to get back in shape. I was playing club soccer at the time and started working out for 6th period a lot. I had little to no friends and barely spoke to anyone. Coach Cleveland said he was looking for a kicker so I went out there and showed off my chops. September rolled around and that's when basically my hell training started. Soccer, Cross country, and Football were all running at the same time and I was constantly moving around and always doing something. Waking up at 5am and getting home at 9-10pm and going to sleep at midnight. I remember just saying over and over to myself "this will all be worth it this will all pay off in the long run". In the end I was right I was in pretty good shape and I was happy with all the experiences I had. The homecoming game was my first game and I made almost all of my kicks I think I missed only one. But we won that game and it felt amazing being part of the team and the culture. Homecoming was amazing it was the first real dance I had gone to and I was alone at first just hanging out in the back but then I let adventure take over and the courage I had to go straight into the middle of the pack. I had danced with a lot of girls and the football and soccer team had hyped me up a lot and I just felt great. Looking back I wouldn't change a thing about that night at all. October, this might be one of the pinnacle months in my life and I didn't even know it. All the sports I was playing were coming to an end and school Soccer was going to start up. But most importantly out of the whole month was going to Knott's that October with the Spanish Honors Club. I had met this amazing Senior, her name was Zithlaly. She had a weird name and always hung out with Ms.Valles but she seemed cool. I talked and hung out with her during the night with the other girls. Little did I know I would be on FT with this amazing woman every night for the month of May. At the end of that night, I had gotten her Instagram and would occasionally walk to class with her. I didn't think much of it at the time but dear god am I thankfully we talked to each other. December rolled around and things were in full swing, I was on the JV soccer team and walking almost every day to class with Zithlaly. I was pretty happy with things and I remember just being tired lol. Around this time I was spending a lot of time with Crystal and I had started to get really close with her. January brought a lot with it, soccer season had started and I was talking to Crystal like a lot. I had gone to winter formal with them and It was probably the worst dance I went to lol. I was so boring and I felt me and Crystal rarely even spoke at all that night. February was up next and this was the first year I had a valentine, Crystal made me so happy when I had seen her smile when I gave her gifts. But more importantly, is the little candy gram I got from Zithlaly. A small yet very bug gesture. Soccer season was at the end and I spent the rest of the month going to track practice. I stopped playing club soccer around this time and I started to lose my love for the game. March was long and I just remember going to track practice every day after school. I had also started golfing around this time and that's when I developed a love for the game. April was amazing because It was my favorite person's birthday month. She turned 18 and we celebrated. Prom was coming up and I asked her about it but she left us on read lol. Track had also started to end around this time with golf. I spent a lot more time with Zithlaly during her last few months of high school and it was probably the happiest I was all school year. May finally wrapped around and let me tell you the month flew by so quick. Zithlaly asked me to prom and of course I said yes. I ran around getting signatures and approval stamps from admins and was able to go. I still remember being really nervous because I didn't want to mess things up with this amazing woman. Man I felt like I had fallen in love when I saw her sitting there in her green dress looking absolutely gorgeous. I still remember just looking at her and just thinking "WOW". Prom night was amazing spending a night with the best-looking girl, I'll never forget how happy I felt. And at the end of the night when the dance was done we had talked about getting together and her being mine and me being hers. I had wanted to jump up and down in excitement. I was thinking "I am the luckiest man, this amazing girl wants to be mine? No way this has to be a dream!" Well we started talking more and more after that night and the nightly FT's that still continue to this night are just amazing. I got to see her graduate and it was such a bittersweet feeling for me, I was so proud and happy to see her walk the stage but I was really sad because I wouldn't see her at school anymore. But that's how our school year went, now let's set some goals for this summer. Number 1, let's hit the gym all summer with the boys and see how much we can better ourselves. Number 2, Let's give this girl 110% of us because she deserves nothing less. And lastly number 3, let's tackle this summer and make the most out of it, and spend some time with our lady and make her happy. Until then My green-eyed boy let's keep pushing, for her and for us!
