Dear FutureMe,
I know this is going to go down badly for you if this is a no, but is covid stil a thing? I'm so done with it and it's so frustrating trying to find out more about it just to get a "we don't know yet".Context: delta variant's been here for a month or so and is ******* everything up, and Papa also got covid a week ago or so.
Masks are still going to be on for this school year, but I think they're planning to take them off after a month? Sounds like a horrible plan, mainly because of the exagerated number of Karens who think "it's gonna change their DNA and make their already menopausal bodies infertile!!!".
I think I'm just done with it all, I've gotten my hopes up so many times just to be disappointed in a matter of hours, or worse, I build up my expectations, and last minute, they cancel. I have way too many examples, it's just depressing. This is seriously going to give me trauma ahhaha.
Also adding to the fact that not very social Mia has to be even less (yes it's possible) social, mainly when people are having unsafe parties and whatnot, so I just have to scroll through all those stories while in my bedroom eating chocolate to eat away the sadness.
I tell myself that maybe if covid wasn't here, and I'd be able to go to a big party, I'd finally open my people circle, but let's be frank: I have not been invited to a multitude of parties, all of the parties I have been invited to (through friends of course, who would ever think of adding Mia to the group chat, unthinkable!) are filled of people I can't stand and well people in Switzerland are just not fun.
Anyways, just reminding you that it's okay if you hate the Swiss, 'cause they suck, and if you had a lame junior year, it's normal 'cause your school sucks ***!
...Another tough question. How did the first partials go? I'm not really that worried 'cause they're all classes we're okay at, but I'm just checking in. Just a reminder: YOU ARE NOT NATHAN. It's okay if your test scores aren't as good as his! Honestly, I'd be really worried if they were... Also, if you did **** up, you can still catch up on the 2nd since they have more value (not sure how you're gonna do that but I believe in you, you can do anything if you put your mind to it!!)
I guess that's it. Whenever times get tough, just remember: at least I'm not 15 year-old Mia, **** was she depressed! Nah jk, I mean it's not wrong but... If you're in a bad place, you're the only one with the key to leave the... place? What I'm trying to say is: you control your life, you choose if it's ****** and if it's not, I know it sucks to have this kind of responsibility, but having the ability to choose is liberating.
Also! Good luck on uni applications! You got this! It's ok if you don't get into your #1 school, aka UCSB, there are a bunch of other great options. This Mia is absolute **** at essays, but I believe in you! Yes, you've worked hard enough, you've done a bunch of extracurricular and you're passionate, so I truly believe YOU GOT THIS!
Don't forget to breathe.
Mia
Epilogue
about 17 hours laterHey PastMe,
Yeah, covid is still a thing... Well, I had almost forgotten about it until I got here at UCSC for the Summer Session, and people had to start...
