Who Was and Is and Is to Come

Dear Future Me:
Am I going to be responsible for this? These classes/labs/lectures are rather boring and there's no way I will need to know how to use these programs in real life. I think I'll pass notes instead. My lab partner/friend/stranger sitting next to me is probably taking all of this down.

Sincerely sleeping through this,

Past Me


Dear Past Me:
You stupid, stupid, fool. Why didn't you learn how to use SPSS properly? Or figure out Access? Or even bother writing down how you're supposed to craft proper lab reports and lit reviews. Had you had any sense to do just one more iota of work, my life now would be so much easier and so much less of an embarrassment. Did $160,000 buy you nothing?

Sincerely pissed,

Present Me


Dear Present Me:
Yes, time travel has been made possible. Fret not and work hard not, I am coming to fix everything.

Sincerely and speedily,

Future Me


Dear Future Me:
Perhaps you should have paid more attention in time traveling class. Since your visit, I keep getting grainier and grainier. And living with three legs hasn't been easy. Why can't you and I just buckle down and learn our lessons like we're supposed to?

Sincerely,

Present-ish Me


Dear Future Me:
Just a heads up: Present Me is kind of uptight.

Sincerely slacking,

Past Me
