A letter from June 18th, 2020

hey leslie, i have a question for you, did you get into your top choice medical school? did you continue to pursue a career in the medical field? if you had a change of heart what did you change it to? have you experienced love? do you think that (if you’re with someone) they are your soulmate? are they wanted you expected them to be, someone who is open minded, funny, smart, your other half? enough of that, i have many more questions but most importantly are you happy? what is your biggest accomplishment? i’m so excited for you, i have so much hope that you’re going to do and become someone revolutionary. it’s june 17, 2020 a week after you said goodbye to your therapist, Erika (you better have not forgot about her). i’m currently crying rn, i really hope you’re happy and that you’re living your life while being successful. Don’t forget about Ms. Jeoung, she believed in you the most. All your teachers believed in you and they probably still do, make them proud (although i think you probably have since you’re admitted into med school, again if you continued this path). Ik we cant talk to each other but pretend that we are, tell me your accomplishments, your downfalls, your failures. write me back in 5 years or even a year from now. right now i feel sad bc i couldn’t reach my peak in high school bc of the trauma you went through back home(elmhurst home not sure if you moved out). i know you’re going to make me proud regardless of what your path is. it’s going to be a long journey for you in med school (i really hope you’ve actually chose to become a surgeon, you’re going to be known) but i know you’re going to show how strong and talented you are. are you still friends with 22, when was the last time you spoke to them, especially Alexis, Melanie and Sofia. Are you still in contact with Abigail, are you guys even living together? How’s Melody, Anshu, Maliva, Mohini, Jefelyn, Kelly, Theres, Rafael, anyone from lic? hit them up, you probably miss them. do you have any new friends? how are they like? are you still shy? i mean i think you’ve grown out your shell but girl social anxiety is a *****. i love you, please keep going don’t give up, i believe in you. Until next time, leslie
