Time Travelled — almost 5 years

From October 9th, 2012.

Hey Eve. Happy Birthday. So, you're twenty now. Twenty years of living, which is almost a quarter of your life, maybe even less. Is the future as horrible as you imagined? Is it grey and smoggy, and do you still feel trapped? How's your heart. Has it held out yet, or is it still struggling like a sparrow with no wings? Where even are you? Have you learnt an instrument yet? You always wan...

A letter from December 8th, 2015

So you've graduated. This is a reminder to keep it real. Don't get married. Marriage is srs bsnss. You're emotionally sensitive and easily carried away by whomever you're currently infatuated with. Yeah, go ahead, but stop for a minute. 1. Do they want kids? You know the saying "Like father like son, like mother like daughter"? Yeah. No. You don't want to turn out like them. This is a lif...

A letter from September 29th, 2016

Dear B, I'm writing this from my bed at 310 12th st. Remember that place? I'm sure you do. As you'll figure from the date, right now I'm just starting my second year of grad school. Moving to CA has been weird, and I think it's taken just about a year to feel comfortable here. You'll likely still be in grad school when you read this again (if you're not, I understand. After all, I've been f...

A letter from September 29th, 2016

Dear FutureMe, If I succeeded then you (I) am living in a circle city (not a circular city). My vision is to create many such cities. Each city will house 10,000 people and provide them all with the food they need to enjoy life and many of the other things too. If I have only partially succeeded then I might be in a community of a few people or maybe a few hundred. Many businesses will operate ...

A letter from March 28th, 2017

Dear Cutie Patootie, The cool thing about this is that when you're reading this, this will already be a distant memory. All this anxiety you're experiencing right now will be done and dealt with. Maybe you're worried about something else today but you can know that all that time you spend worrying: it doesn't make much of an impact on the actual outcome. Remember you are not responsible fo...
