I've been writing "Dear Future Me" letters since I was 12 years old. I try to write a letter for this book once every two weeks or a 'Special Letter' whenever I have a special event that goes on. Events that go on that I consider 'special' enough to write a 'Special Letter' for are:
• Surgeries
• First Day of a New School
• Last Day of a School Year
• First Day of a School Year (Especially Senior Year)
• High School Graduation
• First Day of a College Year
• Last Day of a College Year
• College Graduation
• Last Letter of The Book
In these letters I wrote about my school life (things going on and such). I also write about my home life (current family events, and such).
My first official letter was Thursday, December 25, 2014 (The day before I turned 13). My Last official letter is yet to be determined, my guess around June of 2024 (Whenever my College Graduation is)
I hope you enjoy this book, I should be updating around every 2 weeks or so. I'll try my hardest, but it should be easier now. Thank you so much. ~LizBeth Carpenter
P.S.~ When I say "I" in the letters, I'm talking in the point of view of my past self. When I say "you" in the letters, I'm talking in the point of view of my past self talking to my current/future self. (Like instead of me saying, "I was 12 at the time," it is "You were 12 at the time." It's my past self telling my current/future self about details to what had happened in the past). Thought we could get that straight. This will also be in the first letter for the people who don't read the information about the book so that they will not get confused when reading.
