Letter to Yourself from Yourself 10 years in the future (#1)

Dear Andrew,
How are you today? Are you well? I can't believe I am writing to myself, but whatever. I'm bored, and have nothing else to do. How is that dream of getting that Lamborghini coming along? Hopefully you didn't give up on it. I'd hate you if you did. How is work? Is it making enough? Today, I got this new job. To be a cashier for a grocery store for a few hours on the weekend is not at all how I'd like to pass my time, but what I do like is the money at stake. With that money, maybe I'd save up for something cool, but I have no idea what.
How's school? Hopefully you're still in school. Hopefully you're learning cool stuff, like Chemistry to blow stuff up or computer stuff, because it's cool. Why? Because I said so. If it's law or doctor stuff, then don't even read this. Use this parchment as kindling for your fireplace. I hope you have forgotten of those days when you took AP English and AP US History. I am experiencing them these days, and please forget that ol' work load. I'm sure you remember that it wasn't very pretty.
That's all for now. Keep doing good stuff. Don't get associated with boring stuff like homework or anything like law(yuck). Just go out there and have fun. Experience something. Do not live in your past, as I am now. Back then, all you did was homework, and you can remember how much fun you had(sarcasm). That said, go out there and prove to the world just who you really are. You, like anyone else have the power to change the world. The catch is that you must find a way to convey that power...
Sincerely,
Your sixteen year old self
