A letter from February 8th, 2021

Dear Future Me, it's 18 year old you, My room can be messy at times, but I make sure I keep tidy up and organized. I used to go to a school called sand Creek high school in Colorado Springs but now I go to Pebble Hills high school as a senior. I don't have much places I like to go in Texas, but I like going to movie theaters, aquariums, art museums, and going to the mall. While at my house I, I take care of my two dogs, I do the dishes, I take out the trash, and make sure I clean the whole house on cleaning day which is Sunday. In my taste of fashion. I like to dress how I feel like when I'm happy I wear something bright in perky and when I'm angry or depressed I wear something the opposite. But I don't pretty much just where would I feel, I have an interest in goth fashion artistic and chill style of fashion. I'm a Christian however I support LGBTQ and I don't care if people treat me different of who I have a love interest or to any of my siblings I still think it's human. I like experiencing different music, but my favorites are rock, K pop, country, in sad music. I'm a really unique type of person when it comes to movies, for instance I would watch horror movies and anime endlessly and I like competition TV shows and baking shows and comedy. What I do is not that much on how people see, however I like being by myself. It gives me a lot of free time on what I can draw and find new ideas to make a story out of my characters cause I really like to draw fantasy creatures and characters or people with unique abilities or just a bit different from others. Like I said before I just cleaned the dishes, make sure my room is clean, take out the trash since my little brother is too young to take it out, and on Sunday me and all of my family in the house cleaned the entire house which we declare our cleaning day. During the weekend as always, I like doing art but I also like dancing, watching other artists do their drawings, be on my phone, and go on a bike ride and go at a restaurant. The people in my life, other than my dad my will sister my step little brother and my baby sister and my stepmom, I pretty much have a huge family. there are some that I never met before, but they heard of me of course, and some family members that I share similarities with. My dad is a really logical person and he likes motorcycles, football of course and engineering, and he's real field with determination for his family since want to start his own business and make lots of money.my sister is the exact opposite of me. She can't draw, she's really sociable around people, she's a better dancer than I am, and she acts different, she even got her first boyfriend before me. Even though we're different apart, we both like watching shows together, we both like animals, and we always stick together even though we fight in argue so much we, still love each other. My step mom is a really sarcastic person and she is really kind. the first time I met her, I didn't like her at all, because in my thought she thinks she can replace my mother, so I keep it to myself and don't talk to her that much. but the years go by until we found a similarity that we share the same birthday, which you don't see all day of person that has the same birthday as you. and even though we have the same birthday, We act and do different things but we share our differences and find so the interesting about each other. Now I open up to her and she is really fun to talk to an understands how I feel and how I go through my experience because I've been through a lot along with my sister and she just wants the best for me and my sister and her kids entries me as her own. my little brother is an Annoying kid I ever met. He's so energetic, he's talked too much, he cries a lot, and he doesn't know when to stop, like any other little brother would do but we still love him. My baby sister just turned one a year ago, and so far, she's cute, she loves to dance, and she lost the talk a lot. however, she as all babies, she can be really frustrating, for instance whenever we say no to her of what she is not supposed to do, should start having an attitude and throw a tantrum. she will go through anything without us looking Anne get herself into trouble, she's a pretty handful. as far as that goes I have a few friends, but I don't have a girlfriend or boyfriend, not in any love relationship yet. In my future, I ridded myself to do a little bit of changing. Not meaning like not being myself but open myself to others. As I said last time, I wanted to find a love interest an experience it. Until I get out of my parents’ house and live my own life, I'm planning to go to college to be a graphic engineer so I could spare my art to the entire globe which I would be honored I am proud of myself a share my creativity to others. And I know being a graphic engineer isn't going to be enough so I'm also planning on being an electrical engineer which I am pretty positive on doing and I know for sure I will make tons of money for easy life. Other than my career I'm not much of mother material, so I prefer to be an aunt and I'm not playing to have kids as if now since they can be expensive and need tons of attention. What time looking forward to is reuniting with my longtime friends call the glamorous trio and have the time of our lives and Learn new things about each other like the funny comedy movie called Girls Trip. As far as my future will go I'm looking forward on being an inspiration, have people see me as they can do anything they put their mind to and follow their talent cause there are bunch of different people that can do many things and make So I can't to meet you one day. from yours truly, 18 year old Tajel Saray Westbrooks
