Hello future me! I hope you are doing well. Right now I am writing to you from home on June 10, 2020. Which makes me 18 years old and just out of high school. So now it is on to Missouri State.

Hopefully by the time you are reading this, you are moved on from school and have your dream job. And moved on from the past. Almost like starting your new life in the real world. In the real world I hope that you reach some of your goals like,

1. Have your own house

2. Travel around the United States

3. Become a teacher

4. Move to another state near Illinois

And et cetera.

I also hope that you are keeping in touch with some of your closes friends in high school. It's ok if you only talk to a couple of them. Sometimes things change in high school and you lose a couple friends. It's great to come out of high school with two or three lifetime friends. They will always remind you of your high school memories. Even the embarrassing ones.

Speaking of life. My life is amazing but hectic. I am working almost 40 hours a week but also spending most of my free time with friends and family. I am also doing my online auditions for color guard at MSU. Which by the way, I hope you keep color guard in your life. It is just a fun thing to do and I want to keep the equipment in my hand forever.

I want to keep this letter short and sweet. I hope that the future is bright and that life is great. I hope that you are thriving in life. I wonder how everything is going to be in the next couple years.

See you soon,

Hannah

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
