A letter from January 3rd, 2021

Peaceful right?

january 3, 2021. tomorrow is my first day back to 9th grade since winter break. i don’t want to go, but i’m excited to see my friends i guess. im really into crystals and witchy stuff like that right now are we still into that? do we have a boyfriend yet, because we’ve been waiting since jaydn. not sure if you’ve thought about him in a while, but yeah. he’s still around. a few days ago we started talking again actually. it’s been almost a year since we dated, so i’m hoping we’ve at least gotten some action by now. are we doing winter cheer? or fall cheer? omg!! did we ever get our nose pierced like mom promised? i hope so... anyway, what about career wise? thought about that anymore? right now i want to be a nurse in the navy, and then a regular nurse and live in washington or virginia, and my dream college is molloy. anyway, that’s about all.
