A letter from May 21, 2025

Dear FutureMe, I am very proud of how far you've come. Today is the day where you got back your freshman year time capsule and I will just say, it brings back so many memories from freshman year. You have come so far and you are just less than a week away from graduating which is crazy to say because you went through a whole 4 years with different obstacles. If you know what I mean, just remember boys will be boys and you will find your match but just focus on yourself and friends so they can come to you. You have stayed loyal to some of your friends throughout the years and gained new ones that are close family to you. I hope you are enjoying time in college since it is a new chapter in your life. Remember, you are not in High School anymore so be more mature about your choices. You have family and friends that will support you along the way. We were so goofy in senior year just listening to your brain and not your gut. But that will be another piece of advice, which is to ALWAYS listen to your gut no matter what. Don't let any outside thoughts or doubts influence your decision. Be considerate of others and be the social and helpful person you love to be. Don't listen to others opinions and just be your own person. I can't wait to see what you become in these couple of years. Enjoy life and enjoy college because time goes by quick just like senior year did. Junior year was the roughest year and I mean ROUGH but you got through it. So if I was able to get through junior year, then you can get through college life. Take advantage of any resources. Good luck in life and I wish you nothing but the best. Take care of yourself and stay true not just to others but always yourself. Put yourself first because you are more important than other people. Love you.
