A letter from August 30th, 2016

Dear FutureMe, So a lot has changed recently... You (finally) permanently left Brett and you moved to Langley to live with mom. Scary as fuck but it's been good. I don't really wanna stay with mom forever but rent is so fricken expensive it's tough. Hopefully by the time I get this I'll have my own place and a good job. I also want to learn how to drive. I want to start spending the tiny amount of disposable income I have on better things than just food and coffee lol. I'd reaaally like to take driving lessons and I'm looking into it right now even though it's not something I can really afford right now I think it's worth the investment. I just started seeing Caleb and dude I really like him. We're both way too fucked up for relationships right now but I'm kinda hoping something will happen down the line because he makes me feel safe and happy and I laugh a lot with him. Also the sex is fricken great. I'm trying not to come on too strong but you know how I can be... Addicted to people. I am highly infatuated with him though and I'm pretty sure he is with me too but he's Ben sending kind of mixed signals so I'll have to wait and see what happens. I'm going to send this to my 24th birthday, that's about a year and a half from now. How upsetting is that? 24 is fairly old but it's less than 2 years away. Great. Anyways I hope the person reading this is happy. I hope she has a full time job, her own place and a car and I hope she makes enough money and has enough free time that she can enjoy life. I don't really care whether or not she's in love but I hope that if she is in love it's a healthy love. A love that's strong and independent and happy. No matter what, I hope she's happy. Keep going, you're gonna get there.
