Dear my little freshman self...

   STOP FRETTING! I'm going to tell you this now. This move...IS YOUR FIRST (well...technically 2nd after the one in middle school... but you know what I mean!) Trust me, there's going to be tons of boxes in your future. I'm not even kidding! Throw away all that junk you have, and start packing now! Packing is a really long process....

   This year is going to be kind of fun. I say 'kind of' because there's going to be this guy who will annoy the bejeezus out of you. Punch him now. It's your only chance. You will lose that chance forever. Also delete HER from your Facebook(YOU KNOW WHO! DON'T QUESTION ME!). You're going to see her again in 3 years, and it's gonna suck.

   When it comes to making new friends just talk more, and look for the odd people. In your Drama class there's going to be a girl with a GIR backpack. Talk to her immediately. She is, and forever will be, your greatest Senior friend. She's linked to anime club, and she's going to get you to draw again. She'll make you forgot about that self consciousness you built up in middle school.

   Now, let's talk about ART shall we? Your going to need more than ONE sketchbook, at least two. 'At least' since you run out of pages somewhere in the last quarter of the year.

   Your not going to regret much about your Freshman year. It's an easy year really (actually not being lazy in drama would help). You're going to go through ALOT. Your next move is going to be you best, but when you move again several months later... well... enjoy your sophomore year. Your going to DREAD your drama class, but you also meet tons of people in that period.
 
   Am I annoying you with this list? Well, when you get into your Junior year you'll understand.

   Shoot. If you want you can ignore all I have written. Just keep drawing. Your going to go through a nomadic adventure. Enjoy the time away from Lynwood. It's going to be something of a metamorphosis.

- Your nostalgic future self, Lily.
P.S. Next year your going to have you first Art Class! ART CLASS! Imagine that!
P.P.S Buy a thicker sweater.  Weather in both Canoga Park and Apple Valley are off the charts. Or at least to what you're used to.
