A letter from Jan 2nd, 2022

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe,Althea How are you? I hope you are doing alright. Right now we are still affected by the pandemic and the COVID-19 cases are still rising. I hope that the pandemic is over by then. I'm busy with school right now, so I can finish my studies to achieve my dreams as a (Teacher). Is it harder after college? To be honest, it's already hard being a (grade 10) student, so I really hoped I finished college. I watched movies and shows that show what being a teacher is, and I hope that it's going to be fun like what I see everywhere. I hope I can also teach the special childs bcoz I really want thag My parents are going to be happy for me in the future, I hope they do, and I also hope whatever you are doing right now, you are happy. If you're reading this and you still didn't achieve your dreams, don't give up! If you do, you will never get what you want -- giving up is the last thing I will do. Sincerely Love, Althea Ramirez from 2022,
