(LOTS of things happened

And I’m talking about every instance so far, lately I’ve been embarrassing myself again 😅

I can’t share rn cuz I gtg to school, but I’ll say so when I’m back XD)

Okay so here, I have a list (we’ll do this year)

- messing up the order after Communion cuz I went into the wrong pew 🙈
- doodling in class….
- voice cracking and saying „uh” for quite a long time when thinking of how to respond 😭
- not responding and looking at someone blankly when they said „well hello there” cuz suddenly idk how to greet someone 😃

Don’t worry, this will be updated regularly 🥰

OH and btw my school is very tiny, sorta falling apart and rather poor

Which means they don’t have bathroom labels 😃

So uhm I accidentally went into the gentlemen’s bathroom cuz someone told me it was for the ladies and gentlemen 💀

Ohh and there’s this tall sophomore, as tall as the other teachers (which honestly isn’t odd but whatever)

Anyways I’m slightly shorter than other girls bc I’m practically a year younger and I needed to pass beside him, and said „excuse me sir” because I thought he was my teacher 💀💀💀

Oh noooo 😭😭😭

Ahh no what happened

Thank goodness 😭😂

Future me,
Your gonna get through this! The new co-op is gonna be great! My birthday is tomorrow and I think it'll be good! (I think we're gonna watch The Lion The Witch & The Wardrobe)

Happy birthday!

Dear future self, I hope that what your going through right now gives you an amazing testimony for the future💛

Dear future self,

Don't let your account get deleted again, stupid.

😂😂😂😂

Dear future self,

don't stay up till 2 am emailing him. we will get no sleep.

Dear future self

Don’t leave a egg roll in the car and do not ever get into mud that you think that you four wheeler might get stuck and have they made watermelon gum yet?

Dear future self:

don't spend so much time focused on him. he's not going to choose you but someone who cares for you will

I meant watermelon mint gum

dear future self, wait for the guy to ask because if you ask yourself it may not work, because then you know he likes you

Bro, get a hold of yourself!!

Dear past self (I know that's not what this is for but...)
Don't fixate. He isn't what you think he is, and its gonna hurt when you realize that - but things get better, then worse, then better again. You'll find someone new someday - someone better, someone who isn't just pretending to care.

Dear future self: right now things feel impossible, but I know it will get better. I have faith, so you can too. You don't need someone to make you feel good about yourself - you have a Holy creator who already does that. Just enjoy life. Stay young while you can, because it won't be long before you have to take the reins.

Dear Shi don't forget about the awesome friends you have here and remember you are always loved

dear self... do you still crochet

dear future self: hi

Dear future self:Did i become a vet

Dear future self, don’t ever forget how awesome you are! And, do you still love to read, and bake? You better still be obsessed with Disney, if you’re not I will hunt you down. Are you still keeping a journal? If not, I highly suggest you do.

dear future self:I'm not ok rn

Dear future self:You better have friends when your older cause im lonely rn

Dear future self: are you still lonely? Do you still cry every time you speak in public? Don’t worry, just remember that God is always there with you, and that he will always help you through trying times.

Hey, cool! I crochet too :)

Dear future self,
Guys don't matter nearly as much as God. Put God first and everything else will fall into line. And until you get married and have you own family, put your family before guys. Have a good relationship with your brother and parents.

Also future self,
Are you a nurse like I'm planning?

Ava, AMEN!!

Dear future self…
Are you an actor? Because right now at 14 years of age you are trying to decide if that is what God has for you. Keep praying and he will tell you!

dear future self,
are we in the army?
are we a vet in the army?
are we a machanic in the army? how did we tell our parents? how did mom react? what did dad do?
are we a civilian vet? are we a traveling vet?
do our heart still hurt? are we still struggling with God? do we not like Horses anymore?
who are we? cause at 14 I dont know who I am. who are we?

dear future self, have you finished ANYTHING at all that you started?? if you did, CELEBRATE!!!! Dont be stupid, be you (whoever that is...) and follow God. Dont get too wrapped up in the little things, but dont ignore them either. LUV U FUTURE SELF

dear future self, never stop reading, no matter how stressful high school gets

Dear future self,
Are you still friends with your friends? How are you with God?
Do you have a man?

Dear future self,
Did you find your blond sergeant? If not that's okay, you're doing just fine with your cats and books. Jesus is the only Man you actually need anyway. 💕 Even if you've lost yet more friends, He'll never leave you or let you down. It's all gonna be okay; remember how bad it was during college? He helped you through that, keep trusting Him to lead you through all your life, and follow Him closer than a tailgater at a traffic light.

Dear future self,

have you figured out that sleep schedule yet 😭

Dear future self, I really quite hope you’re a bit more intelligent now. Or wise, rather. If that much could be said about us. You? Me? Depending on when I read this, I might not even be considered the same person. I hope not, if I’m being completely honest. I hope you actually changed, and accomplished what meager yet ambitious things you hoped to. If you didn’t, you sure as hell had better have something better. Or a bloody good excuse for it. And an excuse it will be, you lazy lout. Well hopefully you aren’t, but I can’t expect too much. You are or were me, after all. Stay well enough, or as well as you need to be. Don’t get too well, though. I hope you’re happy, but not too happy. You know who you are, and we’re. I at least have a hope of what I or rather you will be. Maybe you’ll have a better grasp of pronoun tense, so that when you write to yourself again you can be a bit more intelligible. Maybe. I hope you’ve kept your friends there to keep you in touch, and I hope you are offering some of your meager support instead of just relying on them to carry you through your pathetic life. Especially one in particular. Don’t fuck it up, eh? Good luck, the rest of life is going to suck a great load of bollocks, whether it’s gotten easier or not.

Dear me in a few hours:

so did you fail that chem test??
