Dear Tung of 2 years ago,

________Why didn't you just do what you wanted to do, instead of obeying your parents. You wouldn't have been stuck here in Davis, and you could've gone to San Diego instead. Also, why didn't you ever give the long distance a try. Not even TRY. You gave up, and look where that's gotten you. You shouldn't have worried so much about what people thought of you that year, because look now. They don't even impact your life. You truly forgot who your real friends were, and were more worried about other people who didn't give a damn about you. You should've never took that Gap job. I mean, I think that was also another reason why you broke up with her, b/c you fell in lust with your co-worker. Shame on you.

Love Tung. 5-13-08

Dear Past Michael,

In life, we are constantly beset by choices. Some are easy, and some are difficult. More often than not, what makes a choice difficult is that you can't readily see the consequence of your decision. Life might be easier if we could see into the future.

So I'm going to give you a piece of advice to make your life easier. When faced with the difficult decision between a club sandwich and a Monte Cristo, definitely get the Monte Cristo. If I'd done it sooner than later, life might be better now.

<3 Future Michael
