A letter from Dec 28th, 2021

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, We're coming close to the end of 2021 (exactly 3 days away!), so I decided to write a letter to 18-year-old me! As of right now, I'm sitting in the kitchen writing this as a sort of "break" from studying, but I'm pretty sure you'll be on the living room couch, knowing how lazy you, well WE, are. Hopefully, you did get into the History course in University and are doing good in it! I've started to study ahead a little bit for the exams and so far so good! Who are you rooming with? Our friend group is planning on renting something together since we're all aiming to enter Coimbra and are planning on studying on faculties that are near each other! If it didn't go according to plan, I hope your new friends and roomies are cool! :P Also, please tell me you won the lottery or something because I'm really worried about living expenses! By now, you probably already got your Spotify Wrapped! Who was your top artist? Arctic Monkeys again, I hope? Going for a 4-year streak? What are your interests like right now? Are you still into commentary and Minecraft YouTube like I am right now? Did you ever get an appointment with a therapist to sort out the whole "Do I have ADHD??" thing? I hope so because it bugs me every day! T-T I don't know what to ask you anymore, so Happy New Year from past you, hope you had a wonderful Christmas, ate (and drank) tons, and got lots of gifts! Much love, Past You a.k.a Me! :P P.S.: How's Kiko? He's sleeping right now, but 5 minutes ago, he was on a quest to completely destroy dad's coat LMAO

Dear PastMe,

Hey girl!

God, I didn't even remember this letter and it really surprised me when I got the email. So much has happened and guess what, almost NONE...
