Dear 100 Year Old Me ..

2/11/2021

It’s around this time of year that we hit our 100 days in for our school year … 100 days! This year has flown by, and as I get older, the years are going faster and faster! I think back and remember my grade 6 class, the teacher I had (Ms. Olejans) and it feels so recent. As we think time and how it flies, imagine what your future is going to be like. I want you to think about what the world will look like when you’re 100, so 90ish years from now. But don’t just think about the world, think about you: what will you have accomplished, what do you want to remember, what would you say to your 100 year old self.
For your blog this week,write a letter to your 100 year old self. In this letter, I’d like you to set goals for yourself, explain what you would like to accomplish, what you want to achieve, what you hope you experience. Tell your 100 year old self exactly what you feel now and what are the big ideas or important parts of your life now that you don’t want to forget. If we write it down, we can always check back and see how we’ve done. This is your letter to the future, I’m looking forward to reading them!

Dear 100 year old Mr. Steltman,

Hello it’s you from the past, and today I will be talking about some things that I have done in the past. When I was 8 I started cheer and I could not even do a cartwheel, now I am 12 and I can do layouts and tucks and much more. When I was 11 I skipped a level, 1 to 3 and that’s huge for me because level 1 is back walkovers and level 3 is tucks and handsprings. A goal you set for yourself when you were younger was to get better at math and other subjects in school like science and much more. You did it! You got much matter at math and school subjects over the years and it was not even that bad. Now you want to get better at your fulls, a full twist for cheerleading and I bet you can do it. A really big thing that you were proud of was doing all the largest roller coasters at Canada’s Wonderland, today you still would love to go back and try those again.
Good Luck! ~Younger Adrie☁️

Hi Harry, it's me, 11 year old Harry from the past. I started skiing when I was 2 and started ski racing at age 5. I am a lot better at skiing. I am really fast and I really enjoy it. I play other sports like football, tennis and soccer . My favorite subjects in school are science and gym. My favorite video games are apex and minecraft . I hope one day to ski in the Olympics for ski racing. I am a little bored right now because of COVID because I can't see friends but I am happy when I am skiing.

Dear 100 year old me

I am you from the future because I am 109 as you can see I have numbers in my name but whatever
I’m 11 and when I was three or four (idk) I started skating for the first time but now (7 or 8 years later, still idk) I’m playing rep hockey and I’m okay at it, and I can still practice on my backyard rink. I also hope you survived the pandemic and can actually read this but if you didn’t then that is NOT POG so yeahhhhhh.

From you and me(I’m very confused know)

hi super old Eli. I wonder how you are doing? I hope you aren't dead because that wouldn't be very nice. Remember how you played rep baseball, the piano and you were a black belt in taekwondo? you probably don't even know what that is anymore. Right now we are in the middle of CoViD 19 and it isn't fun. well any way see in the future.

Hi Eva its you from the past!
I hope you did lots of things in your time if you aren't already dead. I hope you had lots of fun and caused lots of trouble with your friend Adrie....but I do hope you got better at volleyball and actually played in some tournaments and got to play professionally. You couldn't back then because you were living in a pandemic called COVID- 19. I also hope you get married and remember our awesome grade 6 teacher Mr.Steltman. I hope you foster more dogs for Lions foundation of dog guides and share more fun and happy memories with them. Also I hope you didn't get as mean as our sister that would be bad and lastly make sure you have enough money to buy your kids a time travelling machine because they will most likely exist by then. Have fun!

Hi 100 year old me. I hope you succeeded in your life to be an actor and a film critic and I hope you also keep flying airplanes, playing the guitar and spending a lot of your time with your friends. I am now thinking back and picturing you/me doing all that fun stuff we did. You were just seven years old when you first started skiing and horseback riding, eleven when you flew your first hour. Do you remember how much fun you had. You were sometimes scared getting on and off tall Bella and Bulwinkle, or when your instructor David the opened and closed your door at 3000ft. It was so much fun. Man! and sailing along Oakvile and Burlington shore! All those years were so much fun.
Well, almost all fun. In 2019 we got struck by a virus that changed the world. We had to go back to basics, stay at home, learn from home and be very careful with how we practice hygiene and a new thing called social distancing. All that lasted for a long two years. The details of the virus and how it got all over the world reminded me of some movies I have seen on TV. This time it was real. Eventually it ended and you got back to your old habits, including passionately eating Ramen soup from the near by restaurant. Well, 100 year old me, I hope you are enjoying your life and wishing you another 100 years to come.

Dear 100 year old Nicolas,

The year is 2021 and it has been a really crazy year. Because of the coronavirus. We had to stay indoors for 1 year and we have been doing school online. I hope we can get back to normal soon.

I have lots of goals for myself before I get to be 100! One goal that I have for myself is to become a famous soccer player. I have been playing soccer for about 8 years now and I am getting a lot better. To be a professional soccer player I need to practice a lot more and do training to get stronger.

Another goal I have is to have a house in Burlington.I know houses are really expensive in Burlington. So I have to be successful in life by working really hard.

Another goal that I have for myself is a little more short term because of COVID. When covid is all over and everything is back to normal. I would like to go to Great Wolf Lodge with my friends and do other stuff with them.

When people are asked about me 89 years from now I hope they remember me as a cool friend that was nice to people. Hearing this would make my 100 year old self happy.

Sincerely,
11 year old Nicolas

Dear 100 year old me

IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER, YOUR NAME IS CALLUM
I AM YOU FROM... YEARS AGO. WHEN YOU WHERE 2 YEARS OLD YOU STARTED SKATING AND WHEN YOU WHERE 4 YOU PLAYED HOCKEY FOR 7 YEARS SO FAR. JUST RECENTLY YOU STARTED SNOWBOARDING (YOU FELL A LOT). YOU HAVE 3 CATS NAMED MAZ, REN, AND AAYLA. THEY ARE ALL NAMED AFTER STAR WARS. YOU DIDN'T JUST PLAY HOCKEY, BUT YOU ALSO PLAYED FOOTBALL, BASEBALL, AND SOCCER.

Dear 100 year old me,

Your really old, and probably dead! But I wanted to ask you some questions, if you can even answer me!

Number One, Did I become a zoologist? Did I have a child? Did I end up dating someone? How many pets did I get? Did I go on many vacations? How long did my parents live for? I have many questions, but don't answer all of them, I wouldn't want to ruin the future for myself. Although, few more questions, did you end up getting a snake as a pet? Did dad stop being scared of them? Did I end up getting that gecko for my 12th birthday? Is coronavirus a big thing anymore? Did we end up on mars? If so have we already ruined that planet? I hope not, well I will stop asking questions now, bye bye very old self. I hope your still alive, and I guess see you in the future-?

Lorelai

Dear Old Self,

If you are still alive I would like you to write me back since I have a few questions which you need to answer. Is Olivia still annoying? Is COVID-19 still currently making people bored at home? What was my job (I said was because you are old and retired right now)? Those were my questions, please don’t answer them all or lie about what happens. Also tell future old Addison that I said if you get a snake (or a bird) I am going to scream in your ear! Now with that being said remember don’t do backbends you will break your back for sure.
P.S. Did I become a better a cheerleader?

Bye
