A letter from May 16th, 2020

Dear FutureMe, During this time of COVID19 I find myself stuck at home. I’m staying up late and spending time playing on my PS4 and talking with friends. I also have to take time to get caught up on my school work. I was sick most of the year, and have felt behind the whole year. After surgery, I thought things were going to get better, then we were told we had to work from home the rest of the year. I’m still having some health issues and feel somewhat lost in my classes. But I’m trying to get through it and am learning to allow and ask for help sometimes but that is hard for me to do. In five years, I hope to be finishing high school with a 3.5 GPA and heading to college. I hope to have a major chosen that I am confident in and that I am willing to work hard towards achieving. I want my path to bring me happiness while earning a living. I hope to not be stuck behind a desk. Even though I will be moving on, I hope that I am able to still travel and explore with my family as we have made that a priority my entire life. It is through these adventures we learn true strength, team building and push through any challenge.
