My timeline by Julieta Mendoza Salas

What did I use to be like?

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 18:43:00 UTC

I used to be very friendly and made an effort to include others in conversations.

What am I like now?

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 18:43:12 UTC

My head is constantly elsewhere and I'm very imaginative.

My ideal future

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 18:43:17 UTC

In 10 years, I'd like to already have graduated from university and gotten a temporary job until I have the experience necessary to get a more permanent one.

Alternate future

I think one of the most radical changes I can imagine from that future would be to continue living in Mexico rather than moving away.

Even though I loved to draw, I wasn't interested in art itself as a topic.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 19:28:28 UTC

Making friends used to be easier, and I was very open to interactions.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 19:31:57 UTC

I had a couple of close friends and plenty of acquaintances I could pass the time with.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 19:39:55 UTC

I really like to read, though I rarely have time to do so now.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 19:41:09 UTC

My main interests are mythology and listening to music, which seem to be constants in my life.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 19:47:08 UTC

I try to accommodate others and be aware of what they are feeling.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 20:01:50 UTC

Years later, I have my own apartment and I'm living in another country like Canada or Italy. I'm in a relationship with someone whom I love very much and I'm still in contact with my family.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 20:18:00 UTC

Finally, I've become an established author with multiple published stories. I don't have that many friends but the ones that I do have are close to me and we care for each other a lot. I'm happy.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 23:09:40 UTC

It'd be easier to stay in touch with my family but it might be harder to advance my career.

a01802334 — 2025-04-26 23:11:05 UTC

Eventually I'd learn to like my home even though it would take a while. At least I wouldn't get homesick quite as often.
