Right now I'm in 8th grade. It's november 19th 2:30 PM, 2012. You just got out of the shower, your hair is wet on your back. Your lips are chapped as always. You have your watch on your wrist.
I want you to put this song on because right now you're getting ready to graduate. Don't read any further until you've played this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-7YR0s1i5M
Now that the song is playing, keep reading.
Remember when you were sitting here writing this? You had just got done watching that inspiring Glee video and it made you want to write this. It's 8th grade, Thanksgiving break and here you are. This is like a time capsul. You will read this the day before you graduate. When you read this, it will bring back so many memories. Like when you first went into sixth grade and met Mrs.Vesey and Mrs.Deppen. Next, you'll remember 7th grade. You'll have flashbacks with Mr. Blair, Mr. Herber, Mrs. Fling, and Mrs. Bano. You remember when Mr. Blair betted on how he was saying Michelanglo? Yeah, and your class got swedish fish and cheery water ice. That was so funny! All the other clases were so jealous.
Then, you go into 8th grade. Right now you're doing great. The musical, "Krazy Kamp," is just auditioning people soon. Practice away! You will remember Mrs. Dickerson, Miss. Deets, Mrs. Clemmer, and Miss. Causeland. You will think of them. Take a moment and reflec on each each in middleschool. Take a look at the old friends you've kept and the new friends you've made.
You can also look back on each grade in highschool
Those four years. You're not their yet, but it's coming fast. You're gowing up. It's scary. No worries though. You are determined and you WILL make it. Wipe your tears because I know you're crying right now. This is all so emotional. Take a deep breath and sigh. If the song is almost over, replay it.
You have probably auditioned for many colleges already. You'll make it into one. You may have to work really hard, but it's worth it. You want to be on Broadway, you want to be a singer, you want to be an actor, you want to be a dancer. You want to be a casting director, a director, a producer. You want to do everything that involves the arts. You want to write plays and musicals and write the music for them. You also love learning languages and hopefully, by graduation day, you know a good amount of Finnish, as well as Spanish. Keep working on them! Keep doing Piano, Flute, Cello, piccolo, and viola. Learn to play the violin if you haven't yet as well as the drums. You always wanted to play the drums and violin. Remember all the things you want to do with your life and go get them, they are waiting for you. I will pray for you. For you to get everything you've ever wanted and you will. I have so much confidence in you. Your dreams are as big as they can get. Dream bigger and you're mind wil be bigger. Push away the people who told you no or said you can't do it. You know they're wrong. You still love Adam Lambert. :) I know you do. He's your life and he inspire everything you did and accomplished so far. Also, you love Darren and Chris. They changed you as a person. Think about Pip. You love him as well. All of the Glee and America Idol people changed you forever. Don't forget to give back what you get..
These teachers have made an impact on you: Mr. Blair & Mrs. Brock. They were your favorites. Give to them. Remember them along with any others in highschool you will know.
Have fun in NewYork and meet new friends. Remember the old ones as well. Now that this note is almost done, your hair is almost dry. You're 8th grade self is listening to You'll Never Walk Alone right now. Do you still like that song? I hope you got good grades, you need them to get into college. Just like the song, "Walk on through the wind, walk on through the rain, though your dreams be tossed and blown." Walk on. If you get pushed down, brush yourself off and come back harder. "Walk on with hope in your hear and you'll never walk alone. No, you'll never walk alone." Stay strong andd stay on track. You only have so long to live. Do what YOU want and shoot for the stars. We'll see your name one day in lights. Take a moment and close your eyes. Think about your future.
Now that your eyes are open, you realize how fast everything went by. I had just promised myself a second ago that I would never read this until graduation. I won't touch this letter, It will wait for you to read it. Once I publish this, it's all yours in a few years. Most of all,
Goodluck. ((Get those dreams, their waiting for ya! :) ))
