Letter To My Future Self
To my future self,
I hope that time has been kind to you. I hope your high school experience was what you hoped it would be, and I hope you lived it up in college. I can’t sit here and say I know what growing up was like, because I don’t. I also can’t say that from what my parents have told me that it was easy. I know your plans in life were to go far, and reach for the stars and I have no doubt that you haven’t done that. I hope that where you are right now, is where you want to be, and if it isn’t, don’t give up, keep pushing. Remember you are the only person who can control your happiness.
Depending on what age you are reading this, hopefully you have a special boy in your heart, whether it be the ginger you spent your 8th, freshman, and sophomore years hung up on, or it be someone new. I hope they give you their best, and nothing less, because thats all you deserve. Hopefully you have the career you wanted, which sophomore year you were interested in pharmaceutical work, who knows where you have ended up, but hopefully you are more decisive than you were back then.
As a child, you had dreams of going big. You never would settle for ordinary. The first time you got a B+ on your report card in 4th grade you cried, because that was your first B+ ever. Those were the best times, yet you’ve probably experienced many more within the time frame you wrote this letter. You wanted to be a model at one point, and you used to love when dad painted your nails and dressed up with you and let you do his hair. You’d pout when you didn’t get your way, and to be honest, your parents still tell you how much of a pain in the butt you were, as a sophomore. From childhood dreams and goals, to dreams you had while growing up changed rather drastically. High school, shockingly, was more of a transition for you, then coming from a catholic school to a public school in 7th grade. Although you always gave school your all, and nothing less, high school counted.

    It came closer and closer to that day when my brother had to move but, it wasn't quite there. When I casually passed his room all I saw was boxes of basically trophies and basketball gear. My brother came up behind me and said, "What are you doing up here I thought you were carrying boxes out?" "Well, I wanted to see what was going on in there! Seems as if you're mad at me." I replied with a…

    I remember once one of my teachers said to me " you can't change people, but you either accept who they are or start living without them." I learned not to let anyone effect me. I certainly think that my experience in life gives me strength and makes a better me today. Overall, high school experience has been a very challenging and confusing experience but helpful. It taught me many things academically and emotionally and now I feel confidence and ready for any obstacle I may face. My experience in life have shaped, defined my character and made me the mature person I am…

    I started to put on the puppy dog eyes that can only work when you are Daddy’s girl. When my dad was about to give in my mom appeared, and she started lecture me on how we did not buy me a nice bike for it to sit and rust in the garage. She used the cliché, “There are starving children in Africa who would kill for a nice bike like…

    Times are certainly changing and the world is ever evolving from day to day. More and more each day the barriers of our great seas are diminishing and world unification is growing greater every second. Not long ago it was hard to imagine traveling across seas to China, but now with our sophisticated transportation systems traveling is easier than ever. Now our airport systems are integrated so that you can travel from the United States to China on the same airline. Communication barriers are also being broken down. It is very common for people to know more than one language.

    Coming to college was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Not only has it matured me but it has also taught me things about myself that I never knew.

I found myself being busier than I’ve ever been. But, it was all for the good. I learned how to be productive and manage my time more effectively.…
