A letter from May 28th, 2015

Dear FutureMe, Hey there, older me. By the time you get this, you should already have graduated from SUU. Have gotten your BFA in...well, unless you've changed it, in Illustration. Hopefully you've gotten to the point where you wanted to be. I'm sitting here going "There's no way I can be as good as last year's seniors. Not in 3 years." I hope you're satisfied with where you are, and that you've gotten to where you think you should be. I hope you're stronger. I hope you've gotten more courage. Maybe by the time you get this, you'll actually have had your first kiss. Or have someone you're interested in. Maybe you'll have had another spat with dad, and maybe you've won. Maybe, just maybe, you've become the hero I always wanted myself to be. I hope you are. You've made it this far, you can go farther. I'm so proud of what you've done. Keep going forward. Onward and upward! Love, 18-Year-Old Me
