WOAH HAPPY 23RD BIRTHDAY FUTURE SELF assuming this is posted around the same time again next year

Wow you're old. But hopefully all the wiser and am getting through your first few semesters/quarters at CSUN, UCLA or UCR!! You gotta be a fuckin' pro at art history by this point and hopefully even a volunteer/docent/doing SOMETHING at a museum????

Uhh nothing else really. Hope you're still with that same circle of indecisive yet awesome friends and still having awesome trips to Vegas or Big Bear, hope you still have fandom feels (esp. for Doctor Who, Assassin's Creed, Magi and... Hetalia??) and hope life is looking up as much as it is now!

don't still be fucking around this time next year

no but you've come a long long way this year i'm so very proud of you even if it doesn't feel like much right now, you're a good chick and i think you underestimate your ability and your worth.

DON'T CHANGE YOUR MAJORS AGAIN.

HAVE ANOTHER JOB.

WRITE.

2012 was something, alright

this year started off p. intense with that sopa stuff floating around and then the huge breakup
you met some new great new people, bonded with others even more and let go of some.
i got into alot of new things and got back into some.
try to stay positive and don't giveup! there's many things to look forward to and things will start to fall into place. perhaps you'll realize your purpose. you may even meet some new people. or try something new
at the very least i'll like to think i grew from all these experiences

HAAAAAY GUUURL!



!!YOU!! my friend, are one of the big reasons my 2012 was A-MAZ-ING! Meeting you was such a blessing, that I shudder to think what would have happened if we simply passed each other by. Every time we talk, it is like a whirlwind party tearing a nightclub apart.

...If nightclubs were borderline autistic discussions about how much we hate everyone in our fandoms, anyway.

I hope that in 2013, you continue to be the person who you are right now -- but better! You are a person with individuality and creativity worth maintaining, and I wish for you to come just a bit closer to achieving your goals so you can be happier with yourself. Your friends love you, and you deserve to be just as satisfied with yourself as we are!

May you live a life like the one you wish for,
with love in the new year--

okay katy listen up. stuff sucks right now but you're like halfway through it. you can make it through the other half. really, you can. and by the time you (um, I??) read this, you (I...) will have made it through that crappy ass time.

anyways, yeah this sounds like false bravado. and it's not. because you are someone who can be weak and scared when it's your deal - trust me, i know myself pretty well. normally this only kicks in when you need to help someone out, but hey i'm helping myself out with this, right? apparently it works if i talk to a future me, too. so yeah you should know that at the time of writing this, you felt fucking awesome and empowered and shit despite having a ton of stress and gross crap happening just because i was reminded that the future me - you - will make it through this crap.

so when you read this (not if, unless dreamwidth implodes i guess) you better be happy. you'll be a twenty-two year old badass (okay, maybe not badass but cool come on) who survived the Shitty Winter Of 2012.

let's talk about other things, huh. this year has by far been the hardest yet. i've wasted a lot of our life. i can fully admit that and yeah it sucks, wah wah wah, and damn seriously, i know i screwed myself for my future and i am going to fix it. i've had some crappy freakouts about being useless and a waste of space but hey, i'm sticking that out. i have moments where i'm so scared of everything that i don't want to move and yet i ask myself "DUDE WHAT ARE YOU SCARED OF??" and i can't answer that. there's no real answer.

january wasn't bad. except that i ended up wasting so much money on things that were lied to me about. old news. i'll repay my family for their understanding somehow. april hurt. i had to put everything into perspective. august was miserable. i whined a lot because i hate the heat but yeah, since it's -30c out right now i would love that heat back. our moving has been shitty since july. plans. ah. at this point i just don't care. i want to leave this place.

by the time you read this, it will be better. this situation cannot get any worse. there is no way that it could get any shittier, so anything from now on can only get much better.

MAN THIS IS LONG AND GROSS but tl;dr self, you will be okay and in the new year you will be a much better person. or at the least, you'll have tried to be better.

love, 2012 katy

Dear future self;

Well, 2012 hasn't been the worst or best year, but we can't say it didn't have it's moments, both great and not so great. I'm sure this coming year will be the same. But no matter what, things can only get you down so long before something happens to make you smile. Next year, your brother will be back from the States, which is definitely one thing you'll be glad for. Hopefully things work out in regards to the course and you look into finishing with your degree, get a job, move in with the boyfriend. Who knows what the next year will bring, but whatever it does, I'm sure you got through it. Keep getting through that list of video games. Or you never will get through them all, keep playing!

But most of all, remember: Keep moving forward. You have good, strong legs to get you there, so use them. Never give up.

[personal profile] katsura 2012-12-09 08:57 am (UTC)(link)
oh part two. you have the most wonderful friends in the world. and for having some of them for 5+ years, they're not going to disappear. sometimes when you're stressed out, just looking back on your precious "msn" tag on tumblr helps. you laugh at the most weird conversations so much and everything is so much better.

so even if things seem hopeless in 2012 (THEY WON'T BECAUSE FUCK IT I AM BEING BADASS NEXT YEAR) remember you're not alone. you have a wonderful family and a wonderful group of friends.

hey 2013 me,

i am sure by the time you are reading this, you are even sexier, more accomplished and fascinating than you are now!! some people age like grape juice in a plastic container in the sun - you, my dear, are a fine wine! i hope you continue on as you always have: managing manic-depression without medications (we don't want to go down that road again), maintaining positive company, and sticking to your personal and professional goals.

i hope you've remembered to be a bit nice to yourself this year. buy yourself a designer bag, or a 600 dollar pair of shoes. you deserve it!

love,
2012 you!!

you are actually my best friend and the best bitch I know. period.

thanks for letting me whine and complain at you & always being there for me, thick and thin. I have your back babe, always will.

here's to finally getting together in the new year.

[personal profile] shizaya 2012-12-09 09:33 am (UTC)(link)
ok so i figure this is an excellent place to tell you this because maybe you will look back and luahg

last night i had a dream that we were talking on skype about a new drrr!! character that was introduced in a dream-exclusive ova

he was a dentist with scruffy black hair and a rattail (sort of like the way a lot of fanartists draw genderswap izaya's hair) and he wore green scrubs and a denim biker's vest which was really scrappy and dirty (v. unprofessional, dentist-san)

i remember in the ova he was like
chiding mikado in this really sadistic way, like deep anime shadows over eyes and every thing
for having cavities

and we were like
'omg this guy'
'THIS GUY he clearly has a story to tell......'
'mm-HMM...'

and we theorized that he is some sort of power player in ikebukuro
who lies to people about having cavities
so he can incapacitate them with uneccessary oral surgery

i woke up and i was like SO CONFUSED because it was SO ACCURATE TO OUR SKYPES... i guess you had to dream it with me but IT WAS SO REAL....

WASSUUUUUP i don't know how you managed to find the patience to keep following me from account to account but it means a lot, you know that? it's probably my way of testing people to see whether or not they really love me, and you have clearly passed that test. i'm sure that when you read this in the future, we'll still be palling around, even if i've deleted this account and moved eight times since.

ok, i'm joking. but thank you!! it has always been lovely being friends with you. you are so pleasant and easy to talk to. i hope that when you find this again in 2013, you can look back and feel that you've really had a good year!

if for some reason i ever end up in california, we totally have to hang out.

also i hope you're still into hetalia because i think you are actually my very last friend who still follows it.

CAPTAIN GACKT!!! HAAAAAAY GURL

posting on that friending meme we met on was like, the best decision i have ever made. who knew we would end up getting along so well?? you've been such a help and such an inspiration to me! thank you always for your brilliant advice and positivity. when you revisit this in december 2013, i hope we will have both accomplished some of our goals and, for the most part, had a great year.

as i'm writing this, i'm sure we both will. and if anything went wrong, we probably thought, WHAT WOULD MYLENE FARMER DO? she'd say FUCK THEM ALL!!!, that's what. (i tried to put "fuck them all" into google translate to have it in bad french but it didn't work ugh.)

i look forward to another year of chatting about ass porn and bad shizaya fanfiction. maybe we'll send each other letters! maybe we'll even get to visit each other at some point. it's a brand new year ahead, anything could happen!

Litabee <3333
I'm so glad we became friends. And I really hope we can become closer in the next year! I pray this message finds you safe and happy, and if not, that you find quick relief!
May 2013 leave you with fond memories. You're so dear to all of us. <3
