4/20/13 - Things are going great!

Hey, future me. Maybe if you're still alive and this email is still valid, I just wanted to remind you of what happened this past year. You turned 20 five days ago. You're about to finish your spring semester of your second year. Your oldest sister is pregnant, your other older sister just got married on the 6th or April, and your older brother is going to be a father too. You got a job and thi...

A letter from April 20th, 2015

Dear FutureMe, Are you hanging in there? God, I hope you are. Things might have been tough in middle and high school. I mean, bullying wasn't a problem, you weren't too worried about being in the city, it's mostly just always denying yourself. Always letting yourself down by thinking you're not what people want from you. You always thought that you would screw up time and time again, but the...

How's Your Life?

Dear Future Artem, Five years and two days ago you wrote this letter while sitting on a beanbag in the impact classroom. You were tired and wanted to go to sleep. You also were mentally preparing for swim practice. Now, I hope this was a good introduction because I'm going to ask you some serious questions. Do you have your own car? How's swimming going? Has Harvard or Stanford excepted you...

A letter from April 20th, 2018

Dear FutureMe, I'm excited to tell you that I just finished my final exams which basically meant that I have finished my 2 year program. I have been very anxious, I wonder if you remember because it has been very difficult especially intermediate accounting. Fortunately, I was able to pass with an 86 for the final exam.

feeling...

feeling... sharp. dangerous. full of attitude. which, I guess, is just what a girl about to go to college ought to feel like. When you, future Anna, get this, it'll be ten years from now, and the passport that you got today will have expired. How was going to school in another country? Was it far enough away from your parents? What prompted past-you to write this (besides the fact that th...

A letter from April 19th, 2018

Paige, Right now I'm sitting on a queen bed, white sheets covered in cat fur surrounded by half painted walls next to a fridge that has a tv balancing on top. There's a mixing bowl filled with the remains of chickpeas that I couldn't finish eating because it became to hard to scoop up with a tablespoon (all the other utensils were dirty) on the kitchen counter. My hair is soaking wet, brushed ...
