A letter from Apr 01, 2025

Dear Future Me, Hi, It’s me, your 9th-grade self, writing this letter to you. I hope you’re doing great and living your best life! I wanted to take a moment to remind you of a few important things and reflect on how far you’ve come. First of all, hows water polo going? For me, it's going okay, i have had 3 tournaments in a row, its really stressful, and the coaches are annoying me, i heard that coach Omar is leaving, i'm sad about that. I want to remind you that school is important too. I hope you’re still pushing yourself academically and exploring subjects that interest you. Don’t forget how much you wanted to learn more about piloting and space; I hope you’ve taken some cool classes related to that. Keep aiming high and never stop being curious! I failed my first test ever today, it was a math test, i was crying all day, but oh well, i hope its my first and last time failing something. It’s also super important to take care of yourself. I hope you’re feeling healthy and happy. Make sure you’re finding time to relax and do things you love outside of school and water polo. Balance is key! Maybe you’ve picked up new hobbies or rediscovered old ones. I hope you still make time to hang out with friends and enjoy life. Those memories are what really matter! Lastly, I hope you’ve stayed kind and positive. Life can get tough sometimes, but remember to be patient with yourself and others. Keep spreading positivity and holding onto the good qualities that make you, YOU. Don’t forget to be grateful for the little things and to help others when you can. I’m really excited to see everything you’ve accomplished and how you’ve grown. Remember, it’s okay to make mistakes along the way; they’re part of the journey. Just keep being awesome and chasing your dreams! Take care, and I can’t wait to hear all about it! also, i used ai to write most of this, just incase you forgot. Best, Lizzie.
