A letter from Feb 02, 2025

Dear FutureMe, I hope this letter surprises you, because the one from 2024 did not. 2026. That just sounds weird. 2025 is a nice sounding year, but 2026? Now that just takes things over the edge. You’re closer to 2050 than 2000, and you are well into the 2020s, as well as the era of Trump. His reign has just begun here in early 2025, and the country already thinks that he’s nuts. You are now an upperclassman. I bet you are used to it now, but I sure am now used to the idea. I wonder if any of the freshmen will respect me. So, what’s on my mind? Math and chem, really. I just completed my Great Gatsby project in 1/31. It went alright. Mean Girls is coming up very soon! I’m so excited for it! I hope you smile and remember what a fun show that was. I hope your schedule isn’t treating you too horribly, or that taking AP World was a mistake. You know how bad this schedule was, how crazy it made me. I’m not asking you to give up an academics. I’m asking for things to be better. Enjoy your life. You’re running out of time in high school. Time goes by fast. 2/2/2024 feels like yesterday I wonder if you’ll look at early 2025 nostalgically or see the faults of it. I always hope for the next year to be better than the last, but I know that’s not always achievable. Just do your best. Seriously, I need to learn to accept that term. I’m an idiot. I almost forgot about the actual Groundhog! He says six more weeks of winter. I’m not surprised. Washington DC got snow recently, and I have experienced 6 degree weather. I wonder if it will snow some more? I don’t know if this letter made you smile. I hope I changed. I haven’t changed from 2/2/2024. Am I just stuck staying as this pathetic person forever? Whatever, don’t pity yourself too much if you’re still the same. Sincerely, PastMe P.S. I bet you have a much better idea of what college you’ll be going to after the spring break 2025 trip, as well as where you’re going to live after the summer 2025 trip. I think you’ll really like George Mason, but we’ll see what happens. Farewell!
