A letter from Apr 25, 2025

Dear FutureMe, Hello me. Things are okay now (I need to try harder) & also need to quit *****ing. I dropped an online class this semester again. This summer I will be making up 2 classes (taking bio, and art-hist.), and I'm also going to be tutoring another class for Dr. Bridges. I hope you are still tutoring and pushing through classes as by this time your more than half-way through your spring-26 semester and you have passed all classes with a B minimum last semester (Fall-25). By this time I also hope you've been more financially responsible yes spend money but its important to note I'm going to need money for school in 2027 so make sure you save. Also start prepping your PIQs your more interesting than you think. Also look for more hobbies. Start looking into working for our local democratic party get your foot in the door. Be more responsible please. Create more meaningful connections and I hope you value your self more. I know I don't like to say it be we're deeply insecure, and afraid of failing. I hope by this time next year you have improved on your productivity and on your time management. I also hope you have a better part-time job. Johns doesn't value you. I know you enjoy the job and remember how much fun you've had but that's the past now move further. You've got this make small sacrifices just for now. 30 year old us will appreciate the sacrifices you've made. We need to continue to improve. I want to continue to improve for me. No one else maybe people will benefit off my success or be happy for me or try to claim a bit of my success for themselves. But it was mostly you and only for you. I'm proud we went back to school. I'm proud your doing the work even though I feel like I'm just doing the bare minimum. Your doing good but continue to improve. There's always room for it. Remember don't focus on things you have no control over it will only hurt you more. Don't beat yourself up I know we compare to others and wish the past was different but things are better now and will only continue to get better so long as you keep growing. Mom and dad will always be the same although they might wish they could be different they dont do the work to be better or grow so just do what they cannot. Improve. Grow. Be better. Love yourself. You'll get to where you want to be.
