For this assignment, you are to write a letter to your future self, ideally scheduled to be emailed back to you upon<\/span>
graduation. Your polished letter must contain at least (minimum) 5 paragraphs, with strong transitions between<\/span>
paragraphs.<\/span>
The following are the topics of the paragraphs, but do not need to go in this order:<\/span>
Me, Now.<\/span> <\/span>Explain to the older \u201cYou\u201d what hopes, fears, dreams, intentions, frustrations, joys, concerns, and<\/span>
emotions you hold now as you begin your time in your program at LakeheadU.<\/span>
My World<\/span>. This is not simply a description of what your room\/house\/apartment\/kitchen, etc. look like. It is<\/span>
your best attempt to describe to the later \u201cyou\u201d where the present you feels at home. Is it the moment your<\/span>
feet touch off the ground on a basketball court? The anticipation of the lights dimming in a movie theater?<\/span>
The sometimes-overwhelming-possibility when you open a new book, or change the channel on your<\/span>
television, or get into a car for a vacation? Where are you most at home, as You? Where do you shine?<\/span>
What I Do.<\/span> <\/span>Your hobbies\/likes\/loves\/passions\/feelings of callings. Not just something like \u201cI like to draw,\u201d<\/span>
but more\u2014there is so much more to you than that statement. Why do you like to draw? What do you want<\/span>
to draw? What other types of art do you want to experiment with? What galleries and museums do you<\/span>
want to get lost in?<\/span>
People in My Life.<\/span> <\/span>Who has impacted you to become \u201cyou,\u201d today, in this moment? Are they people you<\/span>
know? Are they words from authors\/filmmakers\/singers\/writers\/poets? Are they the actions of athletes?<\/span>
Explain why and what impact you feel they have made on you to the later \u201cyou.\u201d<\/span>
What Role I Want to Play.<\/span> <\/span>Okay, this is the heavy one. You\u2019re in your first year of your undergraduate<\/span>
degree. You likely don\u2019t know exactly what you want to be… so don\u2019t tell yourself what you want to \u201cdo\u201d for<\/span>
a career, but tell the future \u201cyou\u201d what you want to<\/span> <\/span>experience<\/span>. There\u2019s a possibility that the job you end up<\/span>
having, you haven\u2019t even heard of yet, so instead focus on what you want to do in life. Consider what you<\/span>
value. Consider which program you are pursuing. Consider what you want your future to be like and how<\/span>
you move towards that.<\/span>
Have fun with it all. Ask yourself \u201cWhy?\u201d after every statement. Question where your desires for things comes from, and do<\/span>
your best to explain to \u201cYou\u201d at 18, 22, 35, or 78 what you are like today, this moment, the first few months as a university<\/span>
student at Lakehead University. Don\u2019t write this letter FOR you in the future, write it AS you in the present. This marks the<\/span>
beginning of a great journey.<\/span>
How this will be evaluated (a strong assignment will adhere to the following):<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>Content<\/span>: The letter demonstrates a detailed and thorough reflection of current life, with thoughtful consideration<\/span>
of future obstacles, goals, and changes.<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>Adherence to the prompt<\/span>: All aspects of the prompt have been addressed, and the letter is complete with clear<\/span>
connections between paragraphs and to the purpose of the assignment.<\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span> <\/span>Professionalism<\/span>: The project meets university expectations for tone, vocabulary, grammar, and mechanics, and<\/span>
demonstrates high levels of creative thought and professionalism.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
