Hello from 17-year old you!

Hey! I've been wanting to write a letter to myself in the future cause it looks like the coolest thing ever frankly. Did you end up doing what you liked or just forced yourself to do a burden as a job for the next 60 years? Leave if you don't like it. Do what you like. Are you attending an art school? Get into Gnomon? (that is if you can afford it... cause I cannot now). Remember to not get too emotional, you are too sensitive about the people that are close to you and sometimes it isn't good. Be confident and knowledgeable. It gets personal from here... I wanted to say do you still like girls? I have been debating ever since I noticed that all the people, either be it in movies, online, etc.; were girls. Seeing how the men in my mum's life have treated her, I am terrified of a man doing that to me too- sort of... lost trust in them. Nobody had supported her and I have seen her struggle a lot in life. I remember mum saying that if I ever do come out to them as bi or lesbian, not to come to her for any help... I'm scared. Not a day goes without thinking about all these topics. Hopefully you can figure it out. Yours truly, Naive you.
