Time Travelled — 12 months

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, Hey it’s Brita from 2020. Right now it’s October 25, 2020. You’re 14 and 5’8”. I don’t know if you’ll be reading this because I don’t know if you’ll be alive but if you are then I have some questions. 1. Who’s the president? (It’s trump for me rn) 2. How are you feeling? 3. Did you attempt suicide again or start self harming? 4. Is your fashion style better? 5. Are you out as bi yet? 6. How’s your relationship with dad? 7. Do you still live in Kanab? 8. Who are your best friends? (Veronika and scar are mine right now) 9. Did you ever get into a relationship? 10. Are you still a virgin? 11. How was your day? 12. How tall are we and how much do we weight? 13. Did you still have a job? 14. What’s your fave color? (Mine is yellow) 15. Are kasper and frøya still alive/with you? 16. Any new pets? 17. Favorite drink? 18. Do you have any new friends? 19. What type of phone do you have and is it broken? 20. What’s it like with COVID? 21. Were my rights taken away for can I still have abortions and marry a women? 22. What’s your biggest secret? 23. What are your plans for the rest of the week? 24. Any new cool shows? 25. What are some trends from your time? 26. How many piercings do we have? 27. Did any more relatives die? 28. What’s the worst thing that’s happened this month so far? 29.

Favorite pair of earrings? 33. What are you going to be for Halloween? 34. Please tell your friends you love them. 35. Are you failing any classes in school? 36. Do you feel better? 37. Does hearing the word “suicide” still freak you out? 38. Do you remember the day? It was September 15 incase you forgot. 39. What did you do on September 15th? 40. Please tell me it got better and that we don’t have anymore attempts in our record. Those were all my questions so ty for answering them. Love you!!!! Have a nice day :) - past Brita
