A letter from May 21, 2025

Dear Future Me, It's the last real week of high school. We have testing next week but that hardly counts. I have mixed feelings. I'm scared to move on but I'm excited to leave. I'm so confused about how to go about living life without a rigid routine. I hope college helps ween me off this mindset with some much needed independence. I love the dreadlocks, I plan to grow them out as well as a beard; it's so patchy right now though, even with the beard roller. Hike and Jojo are chubby, especially Jojo. Zoe is surprisingly energetic but she obviously has her Diaper on. Metal music and my summer anthem playlist are carrying me through the days. I'm trying to commit more to my religion but I'm not doing very well dropping my vices. I hope we're doing better, mentally and situationally.
