It’s a little awkward to write a letter to my future self, as I don’t know what’s my future going to be like. We can plan certain steps, but we can’t predict what’s coming next. Anyway, every letter starts with the greetings’ line, but I would want to start with the question: “How are you?” I hope that everything is going to be well. I understand that many things can change in a few years, but I’m not a fan of abrupt changes.

At the moment I’m at the 8th form of the local secondary school. In a few years I can see myself studying at the high school and doing notable progress. I’m one of those students who like studying and gaining new skills. When I’m at the 10th form, I will start attending a preparatory course. It’s a good step towards my future education. My younger sister will be at the eighth form by that moment. Hopefully, she will try harder not to fall behind at school. My parents both work in sales. They are not going to change anything as it’s very profitable to run a clothes’ store

I don’t know exactly how things will go in the future, but I hope that I will have travelled more by the time I’m eighteen. Travelling and learning new facts about foreign cultures and traditions is something I’m looking forward to. At the same time I want to learn to speak other languages and to make friends in various countries. When I come back home, they will still be my friends, to be precise my pen pals.

And last but not least, in this letter to my future self I’d like to mention that I totally love every moment right now. There are simply some goals that haven’t been reached yet.

People all over the world are fond of sports and games. That is one of the things in which people of any nationality are united. All kinds of physical exercises are useful to make our bodies strong enough to keep ourselves fit and healthy. Physically inactive people fall ill more often and get old earlier than those who have plenty of exercises. If you do daily exercises, you feel refreshed, organized and disciplined, you stay in good shape, you have a good posture.
Even if you don't plan to make a career in sports you still have to practice. Regular exercises give you more energy. That is why many people who suffer from general tiredness should take more exercise.
