A letter from July 23rd, 2020

Dear FutureMe, hello! it’s you but from 5 years ago. i just wanted to see what all has changed recently and see if your goals actually became a reality. first of all, congratulations! you made it through college!! next step: med school. good luck! my main concern is transitioning. i know **** well i’m trans and i want to see how far along you are in your transition. right now i am pre everything (no testosterone, no surgery, no correct pronouns). at this time i hope to see myself a few years on testosterone and top surgery. but mostly, i want you to be happy with yourself. right now, i’m not happy with my body at all and i’m struggling with friendships and senior year is kind of scary. hopefully, future me, you are very happy with yourself and living authentically :) i can’t really think of anything else so i’m just gonna stop writing now. goodbye!
