This is Leah. She was 2 months old and the cuddliest thing ever! |
Don’t be scared about going travelling – I know going alone is really scary, but it will be one of the best things you ever do – and you will always have so many stories to tell about your trip through Afirca and South America and the mental things you get up to. Don’t be scared and don’t chicken out of anything!
You are going to learn so much about yourself over the next few years – you are going to really fall for someone and, as a result, you are going to get hurt. You are going to meet a group of 13 people who will see you at your best and at your worst and who, I hope, will be in your life for many many years to come.

New Years Eve in Edinburgh a few years back with these wonderful people from my year at RSAMD! |
You are going to push all your performing boundaries a hundred times, you are going to see yourself grow as an actress so much and you are going to learn that no matter how difficult things get – in any aspect of your life – you can always pick yourself up.
You are a strong woman – believe in yourself.
Lots of love,
Rosie (age 24) xx

May 5, 2015 at 3:20 amI love this post. And I also just read your post to your 16 year old self! Such a clever idea – my high school English teacher my senior year made all her students ask for letters from our friends and she mailed them out 4 years later… I was in awe because you wouldn't have guessed that SO much can change in just 4 years. Therefore, I love reading posts like these. Let's us get to know you a little more 🙂
Sincerely, Dj

July 9, 2015 at 5:11 pmCompletely – that was one of my aims for it too – to convey a little more of who I am to those who are reading it.
I really enjoy the slight sentimentality of writing them too,
Glad you liked it
