Time Travelled — over 1 year

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, Well. I have no idea how you're doing, or if you're even still alive. But I'm writing this anyway. 2021 has had a rocky start with the Capitol riots. Do tell me if Trump gets jailed. At least he's no longer President. We're in lockdown again. I have no idea what you will remember this one for. Last lockdown was horrible. I hope this one will be better. Oh yeah, Happy Birthday. Enjoy being 16. And remember to keep revising your Greek definite article - you'll probably need it for the GCSE! I was terrible at revising Greek. Hopefully you're better now. I know this could be a sore subject if anything happens, but, if she's still around, please make sure Snakeu is ok. She means the world to me, and probably to you too. I hope you'll be more mature, but still the same, excitable girl who I am now. The girl who babbles constantly about Underverse and the Dream SMP. The girl who loves drawing and opera and baking. The girl I know. One more thing. If you still hurt yourself, STOP. I know this is hypocritical but just STOP. You have family, and friends, and digital resources. Best of wishes, Past You xx

It’s so nice seeing things change sometimes, and this is no exception. Congrats on the Cambridge acceptance!! From an internet stranger, this might seem silly, but good luck! It looks like you got this. Best wishes from across the pond!
