The first thing you should do
is get out your big envelope -- this is the capsule.
Write your name in big letters and the year, then you
can draw as many pictures as you want on it. It's nice
when you make it colorful -- it makes it jolly.
Find old pictures of
yourself. The oldest coins and stamps you can find are
nice. You can always put in baseball cards, hockey
cards, etc. You can also write what you think the world
will be like in the year 2005 or put in some newspaper
articles -- anything really but not anything too
delicate.
Seal it up and don't open it
for a long, long time. The longer you wait the more fun
it is. Try to wait at least one year!
