A letter from February 7th, 2020

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, Hello, how are you? by the time you're reading this (if you still have the same email) you'll be one year out of high school and hopefully going to university. right now, its the 7th of February, 2020, at 10:13 pm. my mum got a new car and tv a couple of days ago and my brother has just started TAFE. like I said before, are you in uni? if so, what degree are you doing? I was thinking either law or psychology, but I'm not quite sure. btw are you *** lmao just wondering anyway, are you still friends with annalise? I've been friends with her for eleven years by now, and things are going fine. what about Julia? carys? Ella? Frankie? Katie? please still be friends with them, they're great people. is Bella still with you? I hope she is. I love her and I hope she doesn't die the same way Max did, I want her to have a long and happy life. hows David? does he still live with mum? he should be around 20 or 21 when this gets to you. does he have a girlfriend? boyfriend? car? house? job? I hope he's well. I am currently into a lot of different tv shows, most of which I watched throughout the holiday. ill name some: Good Omens, Broadchurch, Doctor Who, Sherlock, My Hero Academia, etc etc. has your art gotten better? I feel like my arts improved since 2019, so imagine how it'll be in 2025. speaking of 2025! I wrote a book (somewhat) of a fantasy war set in 2025. its called War Never Ends, you can find it on Wattpad under the name PowerGirl19. how is the book going? I wonder if you've given up on it. I've given up on a lot of my stories, so I won't be surprised if you've given up on that. I'm doing Japanese lessons at school, I know how to spell my name in katakana now. レベカー re - be - ka can you speak Japanese now? I hope you can. it'd make it easier to understand anime. also, what doctor from doctor who are you on now? I'm on the thirteenth. is the writing better? I hope it is. the writing for the thirteenth doctor is ****. like, I like her acting and I REALLY wanna make out with her for like all of eternity but the writing for the episodes is really political and all about how we're ruining our planet. they're doing a Greta Thunberg, lecturing us about not helping the planet and to do something about it, when they don't even tell us how, or if they're doing it themselves. anyway I'd really like to write more but I have no idea what to say, so I guess I'll just leave this here. Goodnight, good morning, good afternoon- whatever time of day it is, have a good one. Just remember that you ARE beautiful and you ARE wanted and if anyone tells you you're not, screw them. They don't pay rent for your headspace. Love ya. Yours truly, Rebecca
