A letter from Jul 29, 2024

Dear FutureMe, So summer has been going really really well...junior year was a bit depressing to be honest. It started off good, but then around winter time till the end of the school year, we were going through a rough time. Started skipping school because I didn't feel motivated, sleep schedule was so off, lots of nights spent crying, overthinking, and being depressed because we felt stupid, and had no friends. We aren't really friends with Selena and Fatima, and broke things off. We're the best of friends with Jordyn though, and have been hanging out with her all summer. I won't talk too much about junior year, but just know it was rough. As for senior year, I'm feeling better than ever, but am also kind of nervous. That means college applications are due in just a few months, we don't even know where we wanna go yet. No more Washington though, that is for sure. We still don't talk to Nate, and never will most likely, but I can fully say that I am no longer in love with him, and have no intention of ever getting back with him. As for this summer, where do I even start. So, the last day of school we asked out a boy in physics, did not go well, he was a tiny sophomore anyway. But we also got a girls phone number, and talked to her for a bit....let's just say things were very cringey, and not the kind of girl girl relationship we would have wanted. Then around the same time we also started talking to this one dude that John knows, he was super sweet, and we would call him for 3 days straight since we met him and texted on the phone, but he lived in LA. And we had only met him in person once, but he was super sweet and cute, but things just didn't work out because that same week, we met Nick. I hope by the time you write back to me next year, he's still around, and we're still together. Oh yeah so we have a boyfriend now, its Nick if you couldn't tell. He's everything we've ever wanted and more, he's super sweet with the family, and made the initiative to introduce himself to everyone. He's not a picky eater, so we can go out to eat with him, we like just the right amount of same things, while still being different from one another, he can make jokes with me, and still do his own thing. He just graduated a few months ago so he's only a year older, and our relationship views are very similar. A bonus is that he's cute and can play the guitar, and has a really really nice singing voice. He's met Tatay's side of the family, and a majority of aunt and uncles, and the cousins over the phone. I'm so in love with him, it's not even funny, I think I really know he could be the one when he cried in front of me. We automatically clicked when we met, and it's funny because we met again during our birthday 3 years ago, when we were dating Nater. It's johns older brother, kind of crazy I know. But it's just a love story to tell our kids I guess (yes I am that in love with him). I don't have a single bad thing to ay about him, and he has never once made me feel like I was going insane, or that I was doing too much, or that I don't matter to him. Besides that, as for parties, yes, we have been to parties that are not our own, and actually met two of our now closest friends there, Noa and Ramses. It was a pretty crazy night, but we got two new friendships out of it. Things are looking up, and life has been great. I can't wait to hear about what senior year has in store for us, and how next summer went for future us. As always, you know the drill. Write about whatever comes to mind! I hope our last summer here was amazing, and good luck with college! Where did we get accepted into? Did we go on our Japan trip? Are we still with Nick? Still Friends with all the same people? Was senior year just the best? Any major major things? Lots and lots of love, 2024 you <3!
