A letter from April 11th, 2020

Dear FutureMe, You’ve recently fallen in love with Chev and you honestly don’t know how you feel about it. At first you really wanted her but now, you’re having seconds thoughts. But please, if you’re reading this. I hope that you and Chev are still together!!! I love her so much and I know I do, it’s just this virus has got us stuck at home and we can’t see each other which is hard. You also had to make the hard decision not long ago to “leave” Whaiora and you regret it. You also had to tell Jacqui you’re ready to move on and all you wanted to do was cry. You’ve also just realised how much you miss Kobe. You’re rarely even coping with his death. And you’re school work is a different story. You’re only just scraping in and you need to do better!!! But I believe that by the time you’re reading this, you’ll endorse level 2 NCEA with excellence again. But if you don’t, it’s okay don’t put yourself down. Just like Jacqui said, as long as you try! At this moment of the lockdown, you’re slacking on your fitness. I don’t know if that’s a way of you coping with everything going on or not but I hope you decided to get off your ass. By the time you read this in a years time, you better have no visible fat. But it’s okay if you do. I really wanted to play basketball and league this year but those got cancelled. So I hope you got your body ready for next year and the year after!!! Last but not least, if you’re reading this in a years time, I’m proud of you for making it to 2021!!! I love you so much future me and I mean that. So whatever you’re going through while you read this, just know that you survived 2020 and whatever’s thrown at you in 2021 is just a piece of cake.❤️
