• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

2024 Community Time Capsule: Dear Future Me

Dear Future Me,



Hmmmmm… in 5 years, it’ll be 2029. By that time, for myself, I would like to be an event coordinator with my other boss. I hope that things get a little bit easier, as there are definitely some struggles going on right now. For my children, I hope that they continue down a smart path that leads them to a bright future. (And I truly do hope my oldest eventually marries this girl. She’s the best and I luv her!!!) I hope that TBT is still standing strong and has loads of members! What were the themes for the last 2-3 camps? Was one of them a renaissance theme or maybe a farm theme or a jungle theme? Same goes with the next 2 fairs. Did either one have a theme and did I get all the pretties I wanted from them? Did I remember to get prize packs, cuz that was sooooo soooo much fun to get to play behind the scenes this Halloween and my stickers are amazing!!!! I hope all is well in 2029 and I hope our little tbt community continues to thrive!



Xoxo~

Sheando of the future:

You will be 40 soon, if you're even reading this. Yikes. Assuming you haven't undergone a complete personality overhaul in the last decade, I'm guessing that you still like bullet-pointed lists, so my gift to you is another list to peruse.

  • I hope that you've found the language--and the courage--to speak about your beliefs to some of the people you love (and even some you don't).
  • I hope that you've written another novel by now, that the words have returned to you and you've found a way to line them up.
  • I hope that you've hurled your phone into the center of the sun developed a healthier relationship to the internet and social media.
  • I hope that you've found a job working with animals or a conservation organization. I hope that you have achieved that elusive mix of meaningful fulfillment and busyness at work while also doing something that is sustainable enough for you that the specter of burnout no longer looms.
  • I hope you live near to mountains.
  • I hope at least four people really, genuinely love you.
  • I hope you have something to plan, sort, and color-code at the moment. I know how much you need it.
  • I hope your body and mind have healed, at least a little. I hope you can breathe.
  • I hope some of those kickstarter video games have finally released! And I hope they were actually fun!
  • Most of all, I hope that you have clarity that 2024 me can only dream of. I hope you have truth, bravery, curiosity, and a strong resistance to manipulation or sneaky sabotage. Your mind is your own. (That's always been my favorite thing about you.)
See you in a decade! I'm sure you're going to endure a lot, but maybe 2034 will be brighter than it seems. If you're reading this, you made it here. That's pretty cool. Let's be friends, okay?
 
To future me,

HAH OLD
I hope you do read this though, and are still part of this website. Wow, in 2029 you'll have been here for 14 years!!

As of now, I just did our last two final exams for our undergrad, and I simultaneously feel happier than I thought, but still not that excited I guess? I do enjoy learning, but I am tired of the repetitious cycle at this point. Or maybe I just complain too much. Right now I'm procrastinating on applying to honours, which I decided I'm going to do. I wonder if you ended up waiting to hear back about the project awaiting funding or apply for one of the others. Did you get in? Did you enjoy it, and was it worth doing? Do you even remember much about it anymore??

Did you end up continuing on the do a phd, or just stop at honours? phd seems like such a long time, and at this point I don't really want to, I want to be able to explore and live my life, with my free time truly being free, at least that's what I say I want. I'm just feeling lost and scared when I think about the future, I don't know what I want to do, and I feel like I don't know enough and am not enough to exist in the real world. I feel selfish and spoiled for what I have, but also lazy for my inability to be productive- anyways, I hope you're more content now.

Are you still living at home, split between houses? Are you still struggling with the balancing act of attention, appeasement, and self-care? I wonder where you ended up job wise.

Last year was the year. The Rain by cavetown year. I wonder if the thing you feared happened (someone new in the family). But I'm so grateful for my partner for always being there for me.

I'm scared to ask, but are you still with your partner? I really truly hope so. At this point its almost been four years we've been together now. Are you living together yet? I hope they're doing better with things.

In a similar train of thought, this past year has been met with much deliberations over friends. Yknow the peeps that don't talk anymore? Yeah that was this year. Are you still friends with everyone in that group? What about anyone from uni? You just made two friends this past semester, I hope you actually did end up hanging out with them more, they were really nice.

But I'm already feeling much better now I've been on break mentally. I've started trying to go swimming for exercise!! I hope I keep up with it. In terms of games right now I'm saving up for arle cons in genshin (and partner is desperately waiting and hoping capitanos released in natlan), and I just started hsr a couple days a go!! I finished Belobog today, I really enjoyed it, and the music was cool.

Did you actually get around to selling your art and doing market places? I hope you've managed to find a style and gotten better at anatomy. Also- actually yeah just everything. I'm not very happy with my art atm. But at the same time, you've come a long way. Right now I'm trying to stop taking up doing art for others (although I do enjoy it), so I can focus on studies, and doing a couple more challenging pieces, and market stuff!
My favourite thing I drew this year was the arlecchino one though! Also the flathead for dad.
You also started making OCs this year! I sure as hell hope by the time your reading this you've made better refs for them, and actual art. 👁️👁️

I hope you're still here, along with many of the friends you've made at this point on the site. I hope your doing well health-wise, and taking care of yourself.

I know you go through phases of confidence, but I hope you still manage to have a support system, find more stability and confidence, and be that light and support for others.
 
Hi there! Five years passed quickly, huh? Yeah, I know. Stupid time.

I’m happy you’re still here. I’m not going to hold grudges about your life decisions, so please don’t worry that you let me down. I already kinda know how you operate so I’m not expecting you to be some crazy amazing human being. You’ll never be perfect and that’s okay, I never expected you to be. I’m sure you did what you could, at your own pace, and I’m proud that you didn’t give up.

What are your interests now? What have your latest obsessions been?
What crazy world stuff has happened in the last few years or is happening now? Really hope nothing too bad.
How often do you see friends? Who do you like? And who can’t you stand?
Any new marriages? Babies? Deaths?
How was the last Animal Crossing game? Who are your current villagers?
Any other new cool games?
Any good Pokémon games? lmao
What are your new favorite songs?
How long is your hair? Did you finally cut it?
It doesn’t matter now, but what advice would you give me?

I’m going to try for you, but you know me - it won’t be picture perfect. Don’t blame yourself too much. Or me. It’s seriously all fine.

Take care and keep pushing forward!
Muna
 
hi future me !!!

i hope you're doing well; have you loosened the tight leash mom and dad has on you (ーー゛)? have you gone out and explore the city more? have you been able to do anything creativity/in your field? have you gotten out of your burnout? have you been able to move out (maybe that's too ambitious haha)? have you been able to stream and play more games?

enough with the questions, i just want to say i'm proud that you're still around to read this. i know it's been tough to continue a few times, but you managed to push through it again and again. i hope you've been able to figure out and sort through your health concerns, be it about your allergies and eczema or your period pains and endometriosis. i hope you're more comfortable doing things around the house and aren't so concerned with what mom and dad has to think when you do things (whether that's about cooking or baking, being on voice calls with friends, or just doing anything really.)

life not be perfect and you might feel like you're lagging behind, but that's perfectly fine! everyone continues with life at a different pace and there's no right or wrong way to live it.

i wish you the best and pray you're content with your life,
— kirako ♡
 
Hey there old man.

If you're reading this it means
1. you're still kicking, and
2. you are STILL on TBT (you're cooked)this is a joke i promise!.

Hopefully you proved to have made the right career choice and are clearing 6 figures, since you definitely weren't being paid enough in 2024. You should have a few certifications by now and shouldn't be struggling to find work either (please god let this be true 🙏).

Did you manage to find a good group of friends to call your own? hopefully you've stopped distancing yourself from people because it was always the wrong choice. Where do you live now? You had no idea that the 2024 you would be where he was back in 2019, so anything is possible.

Are you happy with where you are in 2029? You compared yourself to others a lot and always felt like you had to prove people wrong, maybe by now your accomplishments speak for themself. Every time you've been thrown into the water you've kept swimming and have yet to sink, so keep your head up. Don't be so hard on yourself, you're not that bad.

Hopefully you have found some happiness. If not, might as well go order a pizza and keep working on it.

Best of luck.
 
To future Xara,

I've been thinking (and stressing) about the future and all the uncertainties of it a lot the past few years. So much can change in just 5 minutes, let alone 5 years, and thinking about who and where we'll be in 2029 is terrifying. Will our parents and Bonk still be alive and as healthy as possible? Will we? What will our living situation be? What will the world look like? What new experiences will we have had, good and bad? How much more grief will we have experienced? How many new friends will we have made, and how many will we have lost? How will things be different, and how will they be the same? Will anything be the same?

I have so many hopes and fears for you, future Xara, but I don't want to dump them all on you because I imagine you have plenty of hopes and fears of your own. Maybe the exact same ones as me. I don't want you to feel sad or disappointed when/if you read this letter in 5 years, because if you're still alive, surviving, and maybe even happy, that is the best accomplishment I could hope for.

My biggest hope for you is that you're happy, healthy, and functional. I hope writing is as easy and as joyful as it used to be for you. I hope your psychiatry appointment in January 2025 went well and that you were able to get the help and the answers you needed. I hope you found medication(s) that work for you. I hope you were able to decide on the career you want to pursue, but even if not, I hope you found a job and that you're happy doing it. I hope you have the same wonderful friends that you do now, as well as new ones. I especially hope that you have more in-person friends to hang out with and that they make you feel comfortable, loved, and wanted. I hope you no longer question your place in anybody's life. I hope every person you know makes you happy. I hope mom, dad, and Bonk are still kicking and are happy and healthy. I can't believe Bonk will be 8 in 2029; she just turned 3 this past summer. 😭

I hope you enjoyed all the medias I'm currently waiting for—the second FNAF movie (is the third one out yet?), season 2 of The Last of Us (how badly did it emotionally destroy us? be honest), VisionQuest, Sunrise on the Reaping, a new Animal Crossing game, etc! I can't wait to discover what your new favourite songs, movies, shows, games, and fictional characters will be!

I could honestly write to you forever. There's so much I want to say to you and ask you, but I know I'll have my answers, for better or for worse, when you get this. But for now, I want you to remember where I was when I wrote this. I am in my bedroom, and the sun has mostly set. Dinner is almost ready, and it smells so, so good. I can hear mom and dad talking in the kitchen. They're not angry or upset, and for the time being, nothing is wrong. Bonk is in the living room, and she is alive, happy, and healthy. She looks at me with so much love and makes me feel so special, and she will probably use that to her advantage to get me to play with her after dinner. I hope reading this will fill you with fond nostalgia, not grief, and that all of this still exists in 5 years. I hope our parents and Bonk are happy and healthy, and even if we no longer live with them, I hope we can call them. I hope your home, wherever it is, is happy and safe. I hope you are happy and secure, and that the thought of 2034 doesn't scare you as much as 2029 scares me. I hope nighttime is your favourite time of day again and that your fears and grief don't feel as big anymore. I hope you're happy to be alive.

With love,

2024 Xara


P.S. have we gotten a new Tomodachi Life game or reboot yet?

Hello my dear~

A lot can happen in the span of five years-- (like going from childless to juggling two offspring). I hope you have prioritized your health and that family remains a comfort and not an overwhelming burden. It's hard to be in the sandwich generation, and I know you struggle with stress and the guilt of "not trying hard enough" but give yourself some grace and celebrate every small victory. You are human, and you are enough. I hope your loved ones are still in your life, and for the ones who have left, you can only cross the bridge so far and the rest is beyond your control. Take one thing at a time.

As for what brings you joy, I wonder if it's still the same art things. Remember that you first started chasing your adolescent dreams in 2024. I wonder if you are still making art or if you ever started the webcomics you had in mind. Surely, you are still playing games and engaging with your (not so) little ones. Maybe you recognize this first draft of THE Jadetine:

There's so much to look forward to-- don't give up!
Big hugs for all your favorite people (including yourself).

Dear future ZetsySundrop,

Your life is extremely challenging, and if you've made it this far, and it hasn't gotten any better, give yourself a tough cookie reward. Seriously, go have a cookie! 🍪

My dreams for you in 2029-
*Your extreme life challenge is at least somewhat better. If not, don't let it prevent you from achieving your goals. 💙
*You have mastered Danse Macabre on the piano (Saint-Saëns/Liszt).
*You have finally put in the playground with the colored glow-in-the-dark pebbles so it looks amazing at night.
*You settled on a design theme for the next ac - maybe castlecore?
*You have developed the skills to be able to art. You can draw on paper what is in your head, and you've developed your own personal style. Very curious to see what it turns out to be!
*You have created your own quilting pattern and successfully turned it into a quilt. (I really hope it's a fantasy quilt with embroidered fantasy creatures on it.)
*You are studying all the topics you are curious about! Time, energy, space, everything! What new topics interest 2029 Zetsy?

In case you forget all about Zetsy: you are trying to determine if it's possible to break the imposter curse! You have tried names with z (alphabetical order, eh?), outfit changes, timing of room entry, changing name after a crew streak, all kinds of things. Yes. I know. It's rng. But you're still trying. 😅 Really hope you are still playing.

You have your goals and 5 years (forever!) to accomplish them. Timer starts......

NOW! Good Luck! 🎉
 
Hi future me,

I hope u find happiness in ur path to a career 😭 I know things can look hopeless at times but what matters is that you never give up no matter what the challenges are! Life is never going to go the way you want it to and that's what makes the journey so much more enticing.

I hope you accomplish any health and fitness goals you have over the next 5 years. My current ones are on hold but I'll be starting back up again soon and hopefully it'll become permanent this time LOL

Finally and most importantly, I hope you find some lifelong connections in the next 5 years. I know it's a struggle right now, but I'm sure the right people will come along soon enough!! It's hard to maintain friendships and hang out with people all the time but there's no shame in doing the things you love independently.

Love,

2024 me
 
Hello, Future 2029 Me!


Five years flew by very fast and I'm sure a lot of things have happened. I hope you're happy where you are currently.

Are we still living at our childhood house or have we moved to the other one? Things haven't been great in 2024 but I hope we finally found the peace of mind and body we're all been longing for. I hope that the toxic people around us are finally out of our lives. I know our family are strong and I know nothing can bring us down.

How's everyone's health? I hope everyone are healthy both physically, mentally, and spiritually. Have you achieved your dream physique? I hope you've found your forever gym buddies and you're all helping each other. I doubt you've taken diet really seriously in these past five years though.

How's our cats - Tuna, Carrot, Premium, Putito, Soupy, Buko, Salad, Peanut, and Butter? I hope they're still around. Have you decided to adopt more?

How's Nexomon 3? Or are you guys working on Nexomon 4 now? Did the game hit mainstream and proved to be a worthy competitor to Pokémon? Are we selling merch now? Have you been featured in a Nintendo Direct? Have you pitched in ideas for your own game to be made? Regardless, I hope you're still designing monsters for this game series because IT IS WHAT YOU LOVE and IT IS YOUR DREAM.

Also, are you good at 3D modeling and animation now? You said it was your aim for 2025 and it's almost the end of 2029. I really hope you actually did because you've always wanted to be good at it.

How's "Zephleit"? Is he still active and draws stuff from time to time? Or are you focused on your Nexomon work now. I hope he's still around. You are him after all.

Anyway, I wish you all the best. Only 5 years have passed. You've only reached the halfway point of your life. There's still more to look forward to. Stay strong. Stay healthy. Stay happy. Keep on manifesting those dreams.


Rosch of November 12, 2024
 
Hello to the me of 2029,

Now is, to put it lightly, a weird time to think about what things will look like in 5 years. I’m sure you will understand that looking at the date on this post. I imagine it will feel not unlike how I feel now seeing the date on things posted in March of 2020, or November of 2016. There’s just… an energy to them, for sure.

Please tell me things have gone… as okay as they possibly can somehow, despite all odds. It’s really hard to see at the moment, given the recent event. You know what I mean. It’s terrifying, honestly, even more terrifying than 2016 was.

On a happier note though, as things stand at the moment, our nephew will be here unbelievably soon! And I’m sure he will make those 5 years fly by growing up so fast until we’re scratching our head wondering how on earth he’s in school already, just crazy. Here I am waiting to even meet him, and by the time you read this again he’ll have like a whole personality and everything, and maybe even another sibling. I hope he’s getting to be everything he wants to be, and everything is going well for everyone.

What travels have you made in the last 5 years? Did the semi-crazy dream of going to see skating at the Olympics in person come true? That would be such an amazing birthday experience, I hope it somehow got to happen. And have you gotten to go to any other skating competitions? Going to both Worlds and Skate America were such incredible experiences this year, and I know it’s going to be so tempting to go to so many more whenever it’s possible! Maybe something will end up being close to home again too.

I wonder how much we’ll be on this site over the next 5 years. I know I sort of forgot about it for a while but just came back this summer and have been enjoying it. Hopefully in 5 years time it’ll still be fun for us.

What did the new Nintendo console end up being like? As it stands I feel like I just don’t even have a clue where they could go next. Will be interesting to see. And what about Animal Crossing, is there another one yet or are they putting another huge wait time in between games? The offline version of Pocket Camp is about to come out, and I’m hoping it will still be fun but am just worried it is going to feel like a bit of a shell of itself, without online play. I wonder if you’re still playing it 5 years from now? The real online version of it has kept us onboard for 7 years straight so I kind of hope so, it feels sad to let it go even with features being taken away…

Well. This has gotten long. I really truly hope all is going well out there in the future, especially in this current moment, I just really, really, wish I could know if it will be okay. It has to be okay, right? Please. I want to be optimistic but it really is so hard.

Just hold on to everyone around you, that’s the best we can hope for.

Signing off from the past,
The you of 2024
 
Welcome to the world of tomorrow!

I just finished writing my 10 years message to TBT. 5 years seems a bit more foreseeable, but even then that’s still a lot of time to pass by. 5 years ago would’ve been 2019. It’s kind of hard to think back to all of that time that passed. So much happened in that span that it was a blur. Almost all of it wasn’t good.

I don’t want to bore you with the details because you already know all of the struggles those 5 years brought. All of those nightmares that happened since 2018 wasn’t enough to keep us down, so I’m sure we’ve managed just fine with whatever the next 5 years threw at us.

I hope you’re still writing and close to finishing (if not complete) that story that’s taken a few too many hiatuses. And you’ve kept at drawing and your art has really improved. We’ve always enjoyed it, but we both know we can do better. I would love to be good enough to animate.

I hope our garden grows bigger each year and it's still a source of happiness to watch all of our work grow into something beautiful. Did we finally make room for a field of strawberries, grapes, asparagus, and so much more? It sounds so overwhelming, but I'm sure it was fun and so fulfilling seeing it all come together if we did it.

Maybe we’ve gotten even more daring with recipes and tried all sorts of interesting meals! Have we kept with our fitness goals? I sure hope so. It can be so easy to start anything, but keeping at it is always difficult.

There’s a lot I need to take care of before then, but I hope I’ve made us proud by the time you read this message. And that you're happy where you are.

-Blue- from 2024
 
To the Future Slayer,

The future is never guaranteed. You may not even be alive to read this, so give thanks to God if you are.
The past is just as uncertain, as memories fade and circumstances inevitably become unrecognizable.
Yet it is the marks of the past and the hope of the future which hold the strings of the experience we call the present.

Currently, in my present, I have been blessed to live with my brother, am patiently enduring my Orthodox Catechumenate, starting a business, and entertaining an education. I'm looking forward to these trees bearing fruit, but nevertheless we patiently endure day by day, and give gratitude for the present moment. Still, I'm not sure what I'll have to do with my New Leaf town in the midst of all this, and I wonder if I've already made my final visit to Nittsvil by the time these letters re-emerge...

Speaking of Nittsvil, I've already been mayor of the town for 4 years, crazy to see how fast time flies. I remember when I first picked it up New Leaf, a lot was changing in my life, and so much has changed from then. God has taken my life on a course I could have never imagined, many regrets, lessons, and blessings with no signs of stopping anytime soon... 😅

My only hope, and prayer for that matter, is that we finally bring healing to ourselves. That we may come to terms with the mistakes of our pasts and root out the deep set emotional poisons that prevents us from realizing the peace and potential that is planned for us. I wish this for all of you reading as well, from the eloquent writers of this moment who have written such beautiful and personal time capsules, all the way to the curious readers reading our letters in 2029! I'm rooting for all of you, much love and have a blessed 2029! <3

Yours in Christ ☦️,
Slayer 2024

To 2029 Danny 🦄✨

In five years, so many things could change. Maybe you're not even going to be able to read this. That could be for multiple reasons. I know I currently fear for the future, and myself while writing this. I know the future is uncertain, and things can be scary. I can only hope you will be healthy and safe.

I hope that you are happy, or as well as you can be. Tell me, how have your parents been? Are they well? How're Sam, Rosie, and Rey? I hope they are still around and happy. Give Rosie and Sammy some cuddles for me. Even though Sam is not a big cuddle cat. How about your sister? I hope she, and her boyfriend are still doing well. How about their fur babies Marci and Gimlie? I'd ask you to hug her giant Centipede, tarantula and scorpion for me, but that wouldn't end well for you.

I imagine you're happy. I hope you're content in your life no matter what you're doing. Did rent go down so you can move out? Did you find a girl to share your life with? I hope your friends, both on here and in real life, are well and happy. Did you get into a graphic design career? I know it's been hard, but I whole heartedly believe it is possible and I hope you haven't given up.

I hope your still as passionate about movies as I am. I wonder what your top ten list for the movies that year is. For me, my top three in 2024 are:

1-Strange Darling

2-Inside Out 2

3-The Substance

There's many up coming films, and other things I'm looking forward too. I hope you got to see Zootopia 2, Frozen 3, ect. I hope that A24 has released some more cool movies, and I hope you've gotten to enjoy them. I wonder which Mascot Horror games will be around. FNAF, Joyville, Amanda, Indigo. I wonder where they will be at. Or what new Mascot Horror games will be around.

I hope Minions, Ponies, and other characters still bring you as much joy as they do for me.

giphy-1.gif


But I am curious about all the new discoveries you have made in new characters I hope whatever they are, they bring you joy, positivity and keep you on your feet like my little comfort characters do.

I hope you have continued to draw, and write. Maybe you've even published that fanfiction. Or even published the novel by then. I hope you haven't given up on either. I wonder how your art, and writing will look in five years.

I hope all is well in animal crossing, and that you've been able to visit them on their birthdays. It's nice to see them every once in awhile ✨

🐰🐰🦌🦌🐱🐿🐱🐿🐺🐐
Please give them some cherries for me. Or even better, cherry smoothies. They do love those🍒

Alas. As much as I would like to keep writing to you, this is all from me. But just quickly Danny...

Currently I am sitting on my bed, watching 8bit Ryan play *Dollmare* I really hope Manlybadasshero will also play it. I had Chinese food tonight, mom and dad are downstairs infront of the news. Rosie was here, but she left. Shes so soft, with such a loud purr. She really wanted some of the ginger chicken. I got a new bed and well thats another reason as to why she was here. I worked on some personal projects today, and leveled up our favorite demon. Im sure you know who he is. Outside It's cold and dark. Tomorrow, I get to train another person in the arcade. I hope that gives you some sweet little nostalgia from when I wrote this to you

I hope reading this brings you some light, warmth, remembrance. Not sadness. But you know how far you've come, and how rough life can be, but I won't mention the hardships. Because though there has been rough realities I've had to face, you need to keep moving forward. Surrounding yourself in love, support, and kindness.. So here are my final words of advice, sweet Danny

Wabi Sabi ✨

From me to you, I hope you have had many lovely days since 2024.


With love ️💖
2024 Danny..

dear future me,

i hope you're much happier than you are now! the past five years have been some of the roughest, but i hope the next five bring you so much love and joy. right now you're still putting off finishing your portfolio for your masters program, and i can't wait for you to look back on this with another sigh of relief that it's over... right?? i hope you're in a place that makes you love your job instead of stressing you out almost every single day and i hope things have improved by then.

i hope your relationships are strong and healthy, and i hope you've put in the work to get it to be that way! will you move out and get your own place in the next five years?? will you be married in five years?? it seems like a long time from now, but at the same time it doesn't seem so far out. it's crazy to think about all these things.

i don't want to ramble on too much, but i really really really hope you're happy.

love, 2024 aeri 🩷
 
Dear future lasagne,

I just joined TBT today. This is my first activity. How is it, in 2029? Are you happy here? Are you still going to be here in about 4 years time? I hope so. What's the most recent comment or post you've made?

How's life going, now that you've finished school? Are you still in contact with your friends and classmates? Are you in college, doing whatever it is you want to pursue in life?

How's the game going? Are you still playing, or have you moved onto another game in the franchise other than New Leaf? Has Rocket woken up yet, or has she just moved out without talking to you? Or maybe I'll find a solution to her incessant sleeping before you find this again.

Have you finally finished expanding your house? What about main street? Finally unlocked all the shops and upgrades?

At the moment, I have all the rooms in my house. They're not the biggest size they can be, though. I have the reset centre (have you finally admitted we should have built other public work projects first?), and a fountain. I'm going to build another bridge, next. Have you decided to keep it in the same place, or have you changed its location on the river?

Are you writing poetry now? Or have you outgrown that phase? It's okay if you have.

What's the state of the world like? What job are you looking to get? How's your family? Have you got a pet? Have any of your friends' opinions on trans folk changed, or will you always be closeted? But most importantly....

Have you tried tiramisu yet??

I wish for you to be able to accept yourself in the coming years, and that when you read this letter again, you'll be able to think back to this time in your life and realise that you've grown.

I'll probably regret not writing more, or asking the wrong thing, but this is what I've decided on, and this is what I'm going to keep. Best of luck in life, and keep pulling through.

Sincerely, lasagne 2024.
 
Dear future me,

I hope you're well and happy, even if things get rough! In the years to come, sad things might happen and that will be difficult to go through so hopefully you find strength to endure and be okay.
Hope that you still receive love, comfort and support and return it as well.
Will a new Animal Crossing game be released in 5 years, what new features will it have? I'm looking forward to it and playing together with the TBT community!
Take care! <3
