Dear Me, Myself, and I

A Letter to the Future Me

Dear Me, Myself, and I
Nicola Paul

Dear Older Me,

Hey you, first I want to just say that I love you, I always have, and I will never stop. No matter what you do and what you become, literally, I can't stop loving you. By now, I hope that whatever you decided to do with your life, you are happy and successful.

I hope by now that you have gotten over all your ex lovers and failed attempts with potential lovers. I know you're still a romantic, and I hope you have found the one to accept that about you. I hope you found someone who laughs at your corny jokes, even the jokes that you yourself don't even think are funny.

I hope you've found the one who can cry with you about the beautiful endings of Disney movies. I hope you've found someone with the same obsession with music. I hope you've found someone who became your music, your muse, and motivation.

But, let's be honest. You have a short attention span. Never allow something so real, so special to be grow cold or get old. Don't ever underestimate someone. Everyone is capable of anything, but at the same time, remember that if it's real, you have to trust. Take risks. Be free.

And, let's be honest. You are infamous for doubting your potential, Don't ever underestimate yourself. You can literally do whatever you want in life, don't let anyone or even yourself tell you otherwise.

I love you. I'm proud of you no matter what.

Love,

Present Me

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
