A letter from Jul 13, 2024

Dear FutureMe, By now, you've probably applied for a masters course in psychology and you'll know if you got in or not. If you did - congratulations! Now you need to work super hard in order to achieve everything you're dreaming of, you have the rest of this year to work very hard and perhaps next year you'll be able to study again. You graduate this year. I'm writing this over a year before you receive this. I don't know how I'll feel by this point. Maybe I'm fully ready to graduate. You still have this one final year. I wonder how much you've grown as a person now. Hey, if you didn't get in, its still okay right? You've planned out alternatives. I assume you might look into a graduate visa and get work for a year before reapplication. Then you'll have your final grade as well. Are we on track for a 2.1? Perhaps even a 1st? I'll be amazed if you manage to pull of a 1st but at the very least I hope you succeed at a 2.1. When are you getting married? Are you still together with Z? I'm not going to speculate too much here but I hope you are and I hope all is going well. As of right now - of July 2024 - I don't know my first year final grades. I didn't do well in first year and I'm preparing super hard for second year, I created a notion page and everything, I want to do well. P is my best friend and I keep texting her and planning next year. Z&Z are coming to my uni and I'm going to be guiding them there but I really don't know how thats going to go, I anticipate I'll just guide them and then they'll figure things out. I don't know how housing is going to go but i really hope I get along with people and yeahhh I think I'm also getting a DAP next year? So my plans are to get the DAP, use mentoring if Im eligible, and just try so so hard to get super good grades while still excelling at my studies. I want the SU awards but I don't think I got it. I hope FoodSoc becomes a thing, I hope it gets affiliated, but again, I'm not the most hopeful. I'd never tell P this because I want to be optimistic and I don't want her to lose hope (If i learnt anything from D, its to never let people know you've lost faith in something and appear hopeful until you see it through). I just feel there's too much technical training involved and too much risk of liability, the SU don't want to really let this be a thing. I know they see we're passionate but I don't think it'll actually be a society. But hey, we tried. If it did work out I hope im pleasantly surprised and I hope it went well last year. I hope it's going well this year too. HistArc is definitely not becoming an official society i think BUT J is incredible and so passionate and so am I, I think our lil committee of 3 is going to try make it a project anyway and I wonder how it went. Anyway thats all from me from the past. You have so many answers that I so badly wish i had. What grades did i get? What happened to foodsoc and histarc? How did me meeting Z and E go? Did i get in to the masters programme? Can i fund it? Am I still friends with the same people? How did my time as a society leader go? Did any of my societies get an award in the SU awards? Did D win the education awards? Did i get to peer mentor alongside P? Is my wedding still on and what does his mom think? You have so many answers I just wish I knew some and I hope those answers were pleasant. If life didn't go according to plan, I hope it's going better. Goodbye for now, -PastYou
