A letter from Sep 13, 2022

Dear FutureMe, this is your 19th birthday. At this point, you’d have graduated high school. What are your plans now? Are you going to go to college, or already there? What are you majoring/minoring in? Are you living away from home (rent an apartment, live in dorms) or still living at home? Or maybe, I’m saying all this and you actually got to work right away. How is… Haha, funny thing to ask, how is your relationship if that worked? Maybe you’re alone right now, and that’s also fine, of course! You have to love yourself and care for yourself before you can do that for someone else. Though, I really hope it worked out. Do you still love Japanese music? What has changed since my 16th birthday? Really, I’m curious as to how much I’ve changed in looks/values/way of thinking/and personality. So many things can change in a year, so how much have I changed in three? What… happened to our grandparents? Has my cousin grown a bit? Anyway, thank you for reading this, me and other people. Thank you for being strong and alive through the hurt and agony, for adapting to changes. And hey, note: write a letter to me 4 years in the future so it goes when I graduate! Or just to check in if no college. Me, (to myself) Yubin 9/13/2022
