Letter to Me

I am writing this letter to myself for me to read in the future. I know that my values will have changed dramatically, but this letter is for me to tell how things are now. I want to remember the things I believe are important to me now, and I do not want to forget many of the memories that I have.

I wish that I could write down everyone of the memories that I have to remember. Family is a very important factor in my life at this moment, although my mom doesn't think it. I do care about them. I am trying, but I know I could work harder to show them. A favorite family memory that I have so far is when all six of us were at my house for Christmas this year. Yeah, it doesn't sound that great, but this was one of the first Christmases that both Joel and Josh were doing great. Josh has joined the Marines, and he brought his friend this Christmas, but it was fun. Joel brought two people home with him, but they were fun as well. Everyone got along and there wasn't fighting like I expected. It was very pleasaent and a relaxing time.

School memories have also been great. One that I really would like to remember is my Sophmore year. I got to go to state in golf. I had only played golf for a year before that. It was a great memory because I got to play with people that were fun to be around. The entire school was proud of us for getting to go to state.

So far in my life I have had many accomplishsments. The one that I am most proud of so far is receiving the MVP award in the Celeste Basketball Tournament. Basketball has been a very important factor in my life, and for me to finally receive an award in it makes me feel as though I am getting rewarded for the hard work that I have put forth.

Right now in my life, many things are important to me. The most important would be my family and friends. If anything were to happen to any of them then I don't know what I would do. School is the next important thing to me besides them. I know that I have to do good in school to achieve the goals that I have for myself in the future. School would be the thing that I am most worried about now. The work is getting harder and I feel as though I just keep getting busier. I worry about where I am going to go to college, and if I will get in or not. The next thing that I worry about is my little sister and my friends. I know that I will be leaving soon and I don't want to leave Alex or my friends behind. I know I will make new friends, but I kinda like some of the ones I have. I enjoy spending time with Alex and my friends. I also enjoy going to my dance classes that I take. I don't have much time to do just whatever I want, so the little time that I have to myself or when I have nothing to do is great for me.

I have many goals for myself in the future. I would like to be an orthodontist. I know this will take many years of schooling, but I am willingly to do this to have a career that I have always wanted to do. I also hope to be able to live on my own without the support of my parents within the next couple of years. As I am in school, I wouldn't mind having a relationship, but I don't plan on marrying or having children until I have already graduated college and am in my field of working with a steady job. I am unsure wether or not I really want children, but I am a very impatient person, and they would probably fear for their lives.

I know that the future is coming for me very quickly. I can remember when I didn't have anything to worry about expect who was going to spend the night with me after my brother's football game. Now I have much more to worry and think about. I know I can't just play around anymore and I have to take responsibitly for my actions. Yes, I know that I have messed up quite a lot but overall, I have done pretty good I think. It may not be the best that I could have, but people make mistakes. So I hope this letter to myself will help me realize in the future how I should have been now, and the things I think are important and admire will soon change.
