A letter from Jun 06, 2022

Dear 17 year old me, I am 13 and in 8th grade right now. I’m sure I’m still getting made fun of even as a 17 year old for my young age. That’s been my whole life. Anyway, I hope that my dream to go to college after graduation still stands. I’ve always wanted to have a good career and to be able to support my family financially. I currently am friends with a kind of big amount of people. Right now I have Brooklyn, Payden, Autumn J, Jolean, Morgan, Joey, Aidan, Seth M, etc. Those are just my in-school friends. Payden and Jolean are moving schools next year. I really hope Payden and I are just as close as we are now. I feel the same with Brooklyn but she isn’t moving schools, I hope. I’ve been through a lot this year. With everything, really. With my friendships, my relationships, my mental health, and I’m sure my mom has been through a lot with me too. My mom has really been here for me this school year. I’ve made lots of memories and friends this year. Even though the year hasn’t ended yet, so far this has been the best. I can’t wait until the next field trip. Which is in three days, super excited for it. My favorite memories from this year and probably the after school hang outs or the Washington D.C. field trip. I learned a lot this year. I’m not exactly sure what to put in this because I feel like I will remember a lot once I start to think about it. I do want to remember my intentions after graduation and if they are still the same. Right now, I am considering being an accountant or an R.N. Both things I feel as if I will excel in. I think I would be quite passionate to my career. I plan on having kids later in my life, maybe after college. That’s if I have any. I planned on moving away from Maryland and this town. Maybe Florida or Arizona. I have also thought about IF I did possibly stay in Maryland. I think I would move to downtown Berlin, or simply Salisbury. Maybe downtown Salisbury though. I don’t want to live in an overpopulated area or a place with too much attention, but I want it close to everything. Places to eat, shop, get groceries, etc. I think this wraps up my “Future Me Letter” for Senior Cadence. I hope I have a good high school experience. I hope that I am happy and love who I’m becoming.
