Hey you.
At this point, you have just finished your freshman year of high school. You think that was a good year? Well, sadly the rest of high school is not going to be like that.
Your best friend you would hang out with? You guys drifted apart sophomore year and she ended up causing drama for you down the line. Sad, I know.
You end up making some really good friends senior year. It was a group of them. You felt like you belonged, a feeling that you yearned for ever since elementary school. They stabbed you in the back. Something you never thought would happen. It's a shame that it happened, but thankfully, you learned.
You never really got that feeling back, but you do end up making a friend who lives all the way in the Netherlands. She's your best friend, and you will realize how much she means to you. She was there at your worst and surely your best. Maybe she's all you need.
You know that guy that you liked since middle school? Give up on him, he doesn't like you back. He never really gave you the time of day anyway.
There will be plenty of guys that you end up liking who, like him, will not really give you the time of day. There will be guys too, who will string you along, and then eventually drop you like you're nothing. You don't deserve that at all. Be patient though, because you will find someone, and trust me, you are happy as ever.
Regarding your small little family. Tragedy strikes when your mom is diagnosed with breast cancer. It was something that none of you expected at all. It was a long, painful journey, but you three are strong and got through it.
Years later, she ends up in the hospital for a week, she ended up having a problem with her gall bladder and needed it to be removed. Seeing her in the hospital bed in pain breaks your heart, but you need to stay strong.
Sophomore year was pretty bad for you. You fall into a deep depression, not wanting to deal with the world at all. It got the point where you want to end it all.
Don't.
You have a great life ahead of you. The next five years are going to be a wild ride, but get on and enjoy it.
From,
Yourself in Five Years
