A letter from August 27th, 2020

Dear FutureMe, How are you?? Are you happy? Healthy? Confident? By the time you get this you’ll be like 20 or something. Geez... You’ll have finished college - at least the diploma part, ya know? I’m terrified for college. I mean you probably remember this - you’re me, right?! Moving 2 & 1/2 hrs away feels daunting and we leave in a few days. I’m supposed to be packing right now. I’m nervous for vocal classes and dance, although I’m gonna be doing something full time that makes me happy so it’s exciting. But going out of quarantine/lockdown straight into near full time education and exercise is gonna be crazy. I mean 2020 has been crazy. Did you stay in Brighton, or did you move back in with your parents afterwards? Have we had a proper boyfriend yet? Or have we met anyone interesting generally? Are you more confident and do you have your own style?? I mean I’ve been working on that and I feel relatively okay with my body now but I’m a work in progress and that’s okay at the minute. I think Lucy has been a massive part of that, you know, my growing confidence to do stuff. I hope you’re still best friends because she’s incredible. Have you been to a concert yet? Have One Direction reunited? Have you finally seen Hamilton? Do you still love Disney? Did we go to Disney world in the end? And did me and Lucy go on our Europe trip? I’m really looking forward to it ya know! I hope we’re happy and comfortable. Lots of love xx
