A letter from Jun 07, 2024

Dear FutureMe, So you're about to graduate huh? You're even about to join the army and that is a really big deal. And to think it's been 4 years of your life even though it's only felt like one year has passed. Like c'mon man your 18 at this point and i'm only 17 you really got a lot in store for you so you gotta stop messing around and lock the hell in because the next 4 years of your life are probably going to be the hardest years of your life and your probably going to cry at least one time in the next 4 years so good luck. But hey, maybe in my senior year I will meet someone who is worth keeping and that is definitely something I am looking forward to. And hey, anything that happened between you and Valeria should matter to you at this point. I don't know what the future has in store for you two but if you guys still talk then you guys will be a great duo in the army and if not then i'm sure you will meet someone great in the army and you will have a good time anyways. Just remember where you came from and always remember who made you the person you are today and remember one last thing, you gotta make your family proud cause if you don't do it who will am i right? Besides, you still live with them so you gotta make them happy. It's still crazy that your senior year is over and my Junior year is ending. I think my favorite memory of this year is definitely when you, Elizabeth, Valeria, and Domenic went to the Main place mall and got to hang out together. I know it was a great memory for me so I hope it still is for you. And it's crazy how this year I depended really on Hannah through everything that happened and even when that stuff didn’t happen we went to Hannah for everything so I hope she will still be there when you graduate. And before I end this letter I think there is one more thing you should hear that YOU need to remember. Keep the people closest to you close, because the people who aren't as close will hurt you if you let them, so be able to let people go if you have to.
