Dear FutureMe,
This is your junior self speaking. You're probably really stressed with your college apps right now, on top of balancing homework and whatnot. I know you're making some really important decisions in your life too and you're probably feeling really anxious for the future. I feel anxious for you too, just thinking about it makes me have an existential crisis. Please remember to take care of yourself. Spend some time with your friends. You don't have much time with each other.
Can I give you some news to take your mind off things? I had my first driving lesson today. It was with Frank. It was weird being behind the wheel. Actually pressing gas pedals and brake pedals, right turns and left turns. Looking in mirrors. My hands were soooo sweaty. But it honestly wasn't as bad as I thought! Less complicated than I expected. Have you gotten your license by now? I think I have to retake the permit test because it expires... which sucks because it took me way longer than it should have to get it... but no worries. Did it once, I can do it again hopefully.
Anyways, I can't believe there's only 3 months of junior left. It seems like everything around me is speeding forward. My final sprint to the end. Tell me how it goes, eh?
Just remember no matter where you go, God will be with you <3

Dear, past self.
I had forgotten about this letter so waking up to this was such a pleasant surprise.
It's been rough, I won't lie. Not the same way junior...
