Letter to past Selves

In writing we imagined what we would be like when we are 30 years old and wrote a letter to how old we are now.
Here is my letter:

Dear Ruby,

My life is great. I have got a full time job as a lawyer working with my old school friend, Ruby Wilkinson-Smith. I own a deep red ferrari and have a little fluffy white chihuahua named Bailey who I call Bails for short and a little 10cm ginger kitten called Zoe. I also own a huge penthouse all to myself ( as you can see i'm basically rich. ) Unfortunately I have an annoying neighbor called Chloe who has 10 dogs and 15 chickens. I live in New Zealand having my family only an hour drive from my house.

 Now when I was your age, actually maybe a bit older I wanted to live in a penthouse and drive a deep red ferrari but everyone I told that to said that it would probably never happen but I set my mind to do it because I really wanted it and guess what? I got exactly what I wanted, that's what happens if you set your mind to something, so don't worry everything will turn out great for you.

 I'm a very lucky person, just the other day I was walking along and found a $100 note just lying on the ground, right in front of me, so tempting to just pick up and stuff in my pocket. But as i'm a good person I took it to the police station and they gave it to a woman who was crying over by the corner.
 ‘ Oh thank you ever so much, you have just made my day!’ She spluttered as a police officer handed her the money saying I found it lying on the road. ‘ How honest of you dear, how about for your honesty I will give you $500 and you can go buy yourself a new phone or whatever these young people like these days’
‘ Oh well thank you very much’ I say in return. I didn't know really what to say. I wanted the money but I already had a lot of it so I let her keep it and made my way back to my house. That is how lucky I am, well you are as well, since you are me.

 Yesterday as always I had to go to work as a lawyer at 5am in the morning, so I got ready and drove to work. As I was driving I saw my work friend Ms Wilkinson-smith on the side on the road with her bright orange jeep. ‘ Hey Ruby having trouble with your car?’ I say. ‘ Yeah, think I can have a ride in yours to work?’ ‘ Sure, hope in’ I replied. So me and Ruby drove to work talking about how her car broke down. Turns out she crashed into a tree and spun out of control into another tree! Luckily she didn't get hurt! After work me and Ruby went to the car shop to buy another car for Ruby since her old one was a wreck. As we walked in the shop owner didn't looked one bit surprised. ‘ Not again Ruby, control your temper on the road!’
‘ Sorry’ Yelped Ruby As Ruby wondered around the car shop she saw a purple convertible ferrari and fell in love with it instantly. ‘ I NEED that car’
‘But that is the same car I own but purple’ I start to say.
‘Pleease Ruby we can be twinsies ‘
‘Fine’
‘YAY’ Ruby screamed. So me and Ruby both drove to our homes after that. So that's all I really have to tell you now apart from to always believe in yourself and don't care about what others think!

 BYE :) Ruby
