Future me

Last night, I received an email from myself. Before anyone thinks that I'm such a loser for sending myself email, allow me to say this first: I sent that email more than three months ago...and I only received it last night. =)

I found this nifty website called futureme at around the same time that I sent the email. It allows you to send emails to your future self. Well, it also allows you to send future email to others but I don't think that's a very good idea.

Anyway, the email I sent myself was really interesting. It felt both weird and funny to read what I was feeling at that time that I sent it, what my expectations were and how I thought I'd be feeling more than three months after. When I sent the email, our stint at Kyushu University was just about to end. We were about to graduate in a few days and we only had a few weeks left before we all had to go home. So I talked about that stuff and then about some other stuff as well. It felt like I was telling my story then to my future self. Come to think of it, I was.

So, last night, I felt like sending another letter to myself... and I did. This time, to futureme a year hence. Here's hoping that, if I'm still around to read my letter, at the very least, I would find it interesting and/or funny -- I don't really care, as long as I don't find it depressing.
