Time Travelled — about 4 years

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, Hi! It's me, your 18 year-old self. I am just finishing up my first year of university in Halifax. Tomorrow is my last exam of my first year, I hope it goes alright. Here are a few things going on... I had COVID this past week, I've started rock climbing, I switched majors to a combined honours in chemistry and French. That's the big stuff. I have some questions for you... are we going onto graduate school? Did we end up getting to do that year abroad? Did you ever get back to normal after the concussion? Did we find love or are we still too independent? (I am totally fine with the latter). Do we have a cat? I hope that you stayed in touch with your friends from first year. Remember to find good in every day...it exists everywhere, find something small to make you smile. Like the way we smile when we see ducks in the park or when you see someone wearing a nice coat. I really just hope that whatever we're doing, we're happy. I'll see you soon... Until then, make memories we'll never forget :)

Epilogue

We are in graduate school, doing our masters in theoretical chemistry. We also live in the UK...
