Can someone do it for me

Hey hey,
How's life, Jazzy? By now you're what...21? Ish? Did you do it? Are you at the college you've worked so hard to get to, living with your best friend, and meeting awesome new people?
Right now you have so many dreams, and it's going to take a lot of work to get there. Sometimes the idea of working to get enough money for college and trying to be good at adulting stresses me out so much. Recently, I had another large car payment suck money out of me faster than I was earning it, which really made it feel like I'll never be able to save up what I needed to. I ended up bawling my eyes out from stress that day. Please say that we made it and all this work paid off!
Now that's a way to start a letter. Reading the one I wrote to myself in 2018 was interesting. Honestly, I could say that the me 2 years ago was way more self-conscious and lacked confidence. I was lonely as ever back then and I think I just wanted people to like me. Current me somehow turned into the opposite. I became pretty social, even though I didn't really like it and was okay with not making any new friends. I had Rock, and she and I are thick as thieves. I hope you two are still besties, because that's the kind of support that you need. Also, I stopped looking. I have never been happy to be single, and I can honestly say that right now I am happy. I mean I hope you're taken right now, but just know that I am content with just focusing on myself and my goals.
So take a bit of both. Love everyone, stay connected, and also remember that taking that time for yourself is good too! I hope your classes are going well, and always, I believe in you! -
Hi stardust I’m Jacob.

Heya

How r u

This thread isn't for general conversation, cuteboy123.

I'm, not entirely sure which time capsule I posted in last. I looked back and couldn't find my post newer than like 4 years ago. But maybe I just typed something out, deleted it, and didn't end up posting it. I don't know.
Anyway, hi future me. Since this will be opened in 2022, you'll be 21 by then. You will be legally allowed to drink on your own, but unless you go through some serious personality changes or something so catastrophic as to be unimaginable to current day me, you probably won't be doing anything about that. You recently figured out that yeah, you were right about why your sleeping schedule is so weird, your circadian rhythm is set to a longer than normal day. Weird? Not really, supposedly it's normal, but morningtime resets it for most people so they end up with correct sleeping habits. Why doesn't that work for you? I have no clue, maybe you'll know. I get the cues anyone else would, so I don't really know what's wack with my brain.
There's a lot of things I could say I hope you've done, but honestly I don't know what I'm going to do and when I do I usually procrastinate on it...so what I will have done by the time I'm you is entirely unknown, and probably less than what I'd want. Or maybe you've finally broken out of this thing of holding yourself back and you'll have done a ton more than I could ever expect. I'm already starting to see a little of that in myself, so maybe it's something I can achieve by the time I'm you. Right now I'm looking into starting to do commissioned art, I even have a mock commission sheet...but it's not all that good, honestly. I might just say screw it and use it anyway, or maybe I'll give the job to Zane since he'd probably know way better how to do this kind of thing than me. I've also picked up that old 'moving to' video thing, still no idea if that's the name I want to go with, but I've recorded a few videos, in particular last night (I am writing this at 5:22 in the morning after being up...about 12 hours, actually. It was either 3 or 5 something or other when I woke up) so maybe by the time I'm you that will have took off. I have this huge world for novels planned out, I've merged the Cosmc Union, Avorion inspired story, and Blackstar universes into one and given it a name, "A Sapien's Cosmos". I've got a game idea. IU've got a lot of stuff I want to do.
I haven't seen Zane in literal months because of this COVID-19 pandemic. I've seen it said it might come back even worse in the fall...I guess you will know whether that happened or not. I might get to see Zane this Sunday, a couple days from now.
I've met someone recently...And I don't want to say anything too soon, but I feel like something might actually happen this time. I'm just...kinda scared. I don't want this too just be another iteration of the Cycle. Because if it is...it's going to end very, very badly for me if the last time around is any indication. I mean...this is two years into things, into the days I've gone without a relationship, and I'm still hurt. I'm only now getting to a point where if something comes along, I wouldn't outright deny it. If this all happens again, it's going to be worse again, and I don't know what the result of going through that could be.
Anyway...Allee is still around, despite the crazy age she's getting to. It's entirely possible that by the time you read this in 2022, she will be gone. And if that is the case, I'm really sorry. I'm appreciating her while I can, so don't hate me for not doing that.
I've gotten back into Minecraft lately, especially since now I've got Frankenstein, the absolute monster of a machine Ryan helped me build around the end of last year, so I can run basically whatever I want, I could even do the new RTX ray tracing stuff if I had Bedrock Edition. I've even been trying to do some mods.
(I posted this later in the day because I went to sleep) -
I don't have a message for myself right now, so I decided to copy and paste my 2018 message and see if I accomplished anything :)
"Dear mother fukking future ass dirty hoe,
In 2017 you didn't do all of the things on ur 2 doodoo list u ass. Remember your presidential dream. Become president, tell the world that you're gay. It's very simple. Keep being a virgin, don't do drugs, stay in school, and don't smoke >:0
Follow this much simpler bucket list:
~Make out with a girl sexually
~Find out your gender by 2019 bish
~^Same goes for sexuality
~Get a project in on time for once
~Finish the Yonce animation
~Tell your grandmother that you're gay
~Bring a girlfriend home
~^Also, find a girlfriend
~Buy a hella gay outfit and wear it
~Always remember your friends! Zack, Sarah, Sarah, Whitney, Gabbie, Nick, Edie, Maura, Taylor, Taylor, Kira, Ava, Mystery, Emma, Miley, etc. Bluh
~Read the rest of Homestuck!
~Finally watch Death Note!
~Get more serious about practicing witchcraft!
~Don't die
~Get more sleep!
~Why are you even still typing this at 12 o clock >:0 I just said to get more sleep you dweeb
~Learn to play harmonica!
~Make a comic!
~Don't kill yourself.
~Cut your hair!
If you don't complete this list then I, your past self, give you permission to .. um... do a thing >:0"
~I've made out with a girl sexually!
~Yes. I am female after all.
~Yes. I like girls :)
~I've done that a lot!! (Just barely though, heh)
~I never finished the yonce animation, I'm sorry past self :(
~Haha nope! I live with her now and this only makes me more terrified to tell her!!!
~Not yet...
~Not at the moment, sorry you're still single
~Oh, FOR SURE
~Whitney, Gabbie, Edie, Maura, Taylor, Taylor, Mystery, Emma, and Miley don't really keep in touch with me anymore....
~I've restarted it! (Sorry I never finished the first read through, I'm trying my best but it's like ten thousand pages bro)
~HE'LL YEAH I finished Death Note and it was AMAZING
~I've basically dropped the craft, I'm sorry past me
~Not yet unfortunately
~Considering I'm responding to this at 3am currently right now... oops I guess, that's definitely a hard no from your future self
~Man you right stop calling me out geez
~I have an unwatched harmonica tutorial in my watch later list! (It's been in my watch later list for months..)
~I started on that but gave up after a few weeks T-T might revisit it, idk
~No promises!
~God I WISH
If I come up with a message later I might post here again, but that's all I got for now :') -
Howdy, past Road!
The time since our last communication has held a lot of twists and turns.
You met your father a couple months after your letter, and got close to him. Now you live with him.
Your mother got her own house, but it flooded shortly after.
You and Ash broke up. You're still not sure how you feel about it.
You got a cat- Kirishima. He was the best cat you've ever met and he loved you a lot. He was born with an enlarged heart that collapsed one of his lungs and killed him earlier this year. He didn't make it to two years old. I'm so sorry.
You attempted suicide early last year.
You've been on some new meds since then, and despite everything, I dare say you're content now.
You've got a kitten named Honey Whiskey. He shows affection by biting everything you love.
As far as the goals you set for us, that's a bit of a mixed bag:
-We've done a lot more with music, but not enough.
-Living with our father is actually really nice most of the time.
-We don't have insurance at all. Sorry.
-I'm still looking for a good first job!! Casey's sucks. People suck.
-We have more debt. Whoops.
-imayormaynothavemadeabunchofnewcharactersanddonenothingtodeveloptheoldonessorry
-I've been writing more poetry? Lyrics don't come easy anymore.
-I have worked on my art! I'm a lot better now, but still not great.
-I really don't know how to get into activism.
-We've got Honey Whiskey.
-I went to a fall festival the year before last, and I dressed up and distributed candy last year for Halloween. ^^'
Our extra credit goals never had a chance.
I just want to say that I know things have been rough in the past. Years ago I would have called you names and mocked you, because self-loathing is cool, but why should I? You tried your hardest. You've suffered so much, and now you get to rest. I'll take it from here.
Hey, future Road.
How are you doing? I'm not sure what I can write here aside from my new goals, so I won't ramble.
-Find a job you can live with.
-Pursue music.
-Stay close to your friends and siblings.
-Nurse your plants to prosperity.
-Get insurance?
-Rebuild your savings account.
-Start reading again.
-Draw more.
-Write more.
-Consider going to culinary school?
That's all I can think of for now. I won't keep you. Be strong, and stay safe.
Go as far as you can.
Road -
Oh! Road! Don't forget to work on your wine making and keep researching witchcraft!
-
Researching witchcraft?
-
I did say that.
