Sincerely, Your Past

Since I like to read my previous posts, I came to have this idea about writing myself a letter 10 years from now. Go ahead and be a witness to my shame hahahahahaha. Plus it would be a great present for me also in the future.

Dear 33 year old me,

If you are reading this now and on your 30’s, I congratulate you for still keeping this blog alive! I don’t know what’s your status in life is but I’m pretty sure you’re not regretting any of it.
 

First of all, how’s life on the 30’s? If you’re married and have kids, well congrats! Never pictured out that yet in my mind and dunno what kind of mother I would be. As for the kids, I know I hate them now but when they are my creations I think I’ll have second thoughts about that. As for your husband, well he’s a lucky bastard to have you. He must be someone who knows respects and trusts you so well. If neither of the things mentioned above happened, then single isn’t bad… Think of it as an excuse to indulge your time on some glorious things like travel, eat and be merry. Just don’t be getting too caught on close friends being married… your time will come soon. Marriage is a serious step which you can’t easily erase.
 

As for your family, I hope you have a healthy relationship to all three of them. Remember to be good with the parents and that you already repay them somehow. They may have pissed you off loads of time but the work they put unto the education you have is priceless. They have raised you well and my 23 year old self can tell you that. Plus I hope the lessons we learned from them were helpful on the way. As for your only sibling, he’s annoying and a pain in the ass but he’s a good boy. He’s nicer than you. You should thank him that he has saved you in crises during college days. You should treat him somehow with something he likes or just say something nice to him. Since he shows more feelings than you hahahaha (not gay)
 

Are you still in contact with the close friends of college and high school? I should expect no matter the distance. How are Lara and Carmi? i guess both are married and merrier on their lives with kids, living their dreams and gorgeous hubbys.
 

As for your career, I just hope you are on the place which suits you. I mean if you can still remember that you were still struggling in the hospital doing endless perineal washes to patients and sometimes be depressed about it. Yet it was a pain emotionally that you felt there was something wrong or maybe you just needed to adjust on matters. Still I support you from where angle you are now.
 

As for the rest of the other aspects, just stay grounded. Never forget the simplicity of being you. I dunno if I gained o lost any weight but hey I’ll still accept it dba? I will be really waiting for a reply though for this letter and don’t you ever forget it…
