Public letters

December 27, 2012

Hey Jordan. This is the third attempt at this letter. I feel like I know you better than yourself, so what can I possibly write that would surprise you? Just remember: The Golden rule. Do to others as you would have others do to you. People' s feelings do exist, and they matter. Work hard and be sincere. Have the fortitude not to be distracted by menial things. Keep your eyes locked on the goal. And call your family more often. Congratulations for coming this far, by the way. I know you can do better though. Those nights where you absolutely destroy an assignment and sleep 20 hours the next day, they feel pretty good, right? You can do that more often with lots of time to spare before the deadline. You just need to want it. I hope you're successful in finding that burning passion for your work. And I hope you're successful in maintaining long term friendships. They matter most, because one day, I might not be here to pick you up by your boot straps. Regards. - J

12/28/12 Dear self, Might ramble a bit here, so bear with me. One, don't be too hard on yourself. Shit goes wrong, just breathe and try to figure it out. Two, I hope someone comes along that has made you really happy. It sucks being alone, and you deserve someone that is willing to put up with your shit and love you just as much as you love them. Three, has the Broadway addiction shown any sign of slowing down? As of now you've seen Book of Mormon six times, going to see it again this sunday 12/30/12, plus you saw Peter

Guten Morgen Future Leesome! Ok - well here goes! After 12 months of running this site, it's about time that you took a dose of your own medicine and actually wrote to yourself! It's an early Monday morning here in Hamburg - you've just sat down at your favourite haunt "Lieblingsplatz" in HafenCity. The coffee is yet to kick in, so please ignore any spelling or grammatical errors... There is now three weeks left here in Germany before before you fly out to Iceland for some northern light shenanigans with Shayne. To keep this short, here are some major events of points of note at the moment: - Nan died just a few weeks ago. Being so far away from home you often don't remember to think about her, which just makes you feel even worse. Make sure you miss her every day - she was a special little lady. And make sure you never, ever lose grandad's ring! - You're currently having a bit of a crisis over what to do work wise when you get back to Australia. You desperately don't want to go back to QUT. Ideally you'll be working full time for STFU and actually be getting some credit for the work - It was only a few weeks ago that you finally "let your hair down" and started "exploring". It has been awesome / horrible / eye opening and new. Why did it take you this long? And more importantly, what are going to do about it now? Hmm...? - Tam's about to start IVF in a few days - Shayne just broke up with Kev. Nothing too surprising, but she's just started dating some Irish guy - we've been calling him potato. She thinks she's in love... Oh dear... - Obviously you're in Germany! Don't forget how awesome it's been. Even if living with 16 people 24 hours a day has worn you down at times, please remember how much of an amazing experience it has been. Also Ritter Sport. - Adam and Cara are having "squidge" in less than two months. How terrifying! But hopefully you'll get to be a ninja-dad! Future Lee, here are some things that past Lee wanted by November 2013: - Be awesome at German! - Be almost ready to leave for Germany - or somewhere else in the world - Have your own one bedroom apartment in the city / valley (this may not happen if you're saving for Germany...) - Have cut down the number of jobs... - Oh, you should have also completed your dream plan by now! It better have been freaking awesome! - Please be in a relationship. You're getting too damn old to still be single. Yes, you like being single and not needing to be needed - but suck it up tacker. You've got to grow up one day! - Hopefully be looking good - please have somehow found a way to enjoy the gym and to go regularly. Maybe Rick has helped you with this? - God these are such banal requests... But perhaps that's what you need - some stability. - Oh, and hopefully you've made more of an effort at Guthrie Street to do stuff! Stop working quite so much (or don't, whatever) but at least be social. Go to the night markets, go for a beer, have people over more often! Be less lame, you antisocial workaholic.... Hmmm.. there's probably lots you should be saying to yourself at this point, but it's quarter to 9 and you have to get to the academy... I hope the last 12 months has been awesome - full of ups and downs and twists and turns. If you had written to yourself 12 months ago you wouldn't have thought that you'd be in Germany, so enjoy the ride! Be cool, man :) Past Leesome

Dear sister, I know that I already told you that but I want to say it again and again... I love you so much, thank you for being part of my life, thank you for being there for me all the time. May be you don't realize how much I need you in my life. I wish you all the best in your life, I wish I could be a better person for you. You're already a star, keep on shining ! Aroua

Hi Nikki! :-) Haha writing this now, taking a break from worrying about the workshop we're marketing. Thank you so much for being one of our saving graces and for doing your best to pursue our endeavor! :D Sorry for the times, I've just been afraid, or busy or frustrated balancing everything. I bet a year from now (when you read this! :P) We're on to a new adventure with Teachables and earning our (cross fingers**) first million! Or atleast on the way to doing sooo! :) I'm really glad we stuck it out - even if it's been tricky at times. I love you and our team! Let's celebrate our success and party!!! :P

Un año más. Agosto de 2013. Piensa en todo lo que has hecho en los últimos 12 meses. Y ahora piensa en todo lo que querías hacer en breve y aún NO has hecho en estos últimos 12 meses. Hablar con tus hijos? con tu mujer? salir a cenar? hacer deporte? leer un libro? aprender algo? Aprovecha tu tiempo. Un año pasa volando, como puedes comprobar, y sólo tienes una vida!

M. wow - what a year this has been. growth central. i know at times you were scared about moving forward and letting the old and outgrown fall away. but i knew that as long as you kept believing in yourself you could get through any challenges and unexpected issues. i know right know you are reading this feeling proud of yourself, with your new website and business well underway and thriving. you have completed new courses and made new heartfelt friendships

Dude Man! hey way to go this past year! Its so amazing looking back now and seeing how far everything has come. You did it man! ... the Code is changing everything for so many people! You have added so much to the quality of the experience of life on so many levels and I just wanted to say thank you. Thanks for taking a risk, quitting your day job putting your heart and soul into MULX for swimming under waterfalls and taking the time to capture the light again! Each morning it still hits me that I'm the only one who is me, and that I’m here only now, only at this instant are you and I the bearers of the universe's consciousness of itself..... this is MULX and as we begin to merge into the singularity remember to be mindful, breath and smile :) Hope you have a great day! I Love you man.

Yo. ITS ME! well you really, at the start of 2012, the beginning of year 11, having trouble with physics, wanting to be the musical theatre freak, and you know, not fitting in at school very well. I hope you get over all the troubles you had. I hope you have a fun filled year with people that you love. I hope that you'll achieve belting a high C in 2012. I hope you have a smashing semi ;). I hope you believe in yourself enough to achieve your ultimate goal. I hope you get a lead in your school musical. I hope that you finally get your real first kiss. I hope you loved your family, and took care of them. I hope you find the courage to carry on when something brings you down. I hope that everything will go well for you this year. I hope 2012 was special. Please. Don't ever give up. Please. Shoot for the moon. If you miss, you'll land upon the stars. Please. Make me proud. With heaps of love from Your 2012 self.

Bridget, When you read this is will be 2013, and not only will you be 18, you would have gone on the cruise with your family, and you would have graduated beauty school, depending on your relationship and financial status, you will now be looking for a place to move out, and you and your family will be in the 5th house because you know as of late mum doesnt want to stay where you are now. Happy 18th Birthday! I hope that clubbing and everything you imagined it to be turned out exactly as it was meant to for you. I hope you quit your job, and are working as a beauty therapist at ella bache, because thats the place you really want to work at, in all honesty.
