Charcoal Thoughts by Anna Mason '22

Mermaid by Stephania Bendek '22 Letter to My Future Self by Samantha Rosenfeld '23

If you think about it, you know so much about me, but I don't know anything about you. I'm just guessing and making assumptions.

Yes I know we are the exact same person. But we are in two different periods of our lives. I am a sixteen-year-old high school student just trying to survive. And you, what are you doing?

Are you sitting in a dorm or apartment? Are you living in the city? (preferably Boston) You're still close with mom and dad, right? I'm sorry, I just have so many questions to ask

Did you end up going to college as we hoped? Did you end up majoring in Psychology or Political science? Please don't tell me you joined a sorority We are way too introverted for that stuff.

You're probably laughing to yourself About all these questions I am asking Maybe some parts of me never change I have a feeling they don't. Or do they?

But most of all, I just hope you're happy. I just want you to be successful and do what you love. Life is too short to do things you don't want to do. I hope that's some inspiring advice from your sixteen-year-old self.

Anyways I'm sure you're very busy Taking on the world one day at a time I hope this letter finds you well I wish you nothing but the best
