Letters to my younger and older selves
Dear 18 year old me, Your life is quite a bit different than you thought it'd be. Probably you expect this, as at 18 you have no idea what you'd be doing at 38, mostly because that's 20 years in the future. I know you want to study psychology, and you do, but you don't use the degree for much except for teaching English abroad. That was fun, so it wasn't completely useless. Your job ends up being at a supported living business as a finance manager as you studied finance/accounting after you got back from the JET program. You live in a shitty apartment, but it's not that bad really, and you do it because you'd rather save money. You are happy there. You own a house that you rent out. You're still single though, and you have been. You were right, it would take a long time for you to get your first girlfriend. In fact I'm still waiting on that. Sorry, but in 20 years you're still lame and it's hard to make friends/love...
