I've been called insane because of this a few times already, but the day after Halloween automatically turns on my Christmas spirit. I was getting ready for a Halloween party on November 1st and was listening to the Christmas Hits playlist on Spotify as I got ready. I've watched a few Christmas episodes of my favorite TV shows and I have planned out fun winter things to do on dates. Like I said, insane.

However, if you're anything like me, Christmas is the best time of year. Classes come to an end, everything is covered in lights, you consume pounds of delicious food, and you get to spend time with your family. Christmas has always been a special time for me and my family, which is why it's so easy for me to get excited so early; when Christmas is your favorite holiday, why wouldn't you want to prolong the joy and celebration?

I am aware that some people are still stuck on Halloween or are patiently waiting to stuff themselves on Thanksgiving, which is awesome too! I'm a huge proponent of the holiday season and those are some great ones to celebrate. Maybe this is an attempt to get everyone on my excitement level so that I can stop being judged, but let's just call it spreading the spirit.

Frosty The Snowman

My favorite is the first one, but indulge in any of the Frosty variety and you are bound to feel a little more jolly.

Rudolph

The claymation Christmas movies are classics.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas

The animated one.... or the live action one. They both slap, tbh. So now, technically you have 11 options. You're welcome.

Love Actually

If you want a little bit of romance mixed in with your festivities, look no further!

Arthur Christmas

Honestly, an underrated one.

A Christmas Story

You'll shoot your eye out. This one also plays for 24 hours straight on Christmas day in case you were wondering.

Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas

SO MUCH MORE SUPERIOR than Mickey's One Upon A Christmas. It's made up of little shorts with all the characters. Maybe a little childish, but trust me on this.

Elf

An obvious choice.

Polar Express

Some people think this one is creepy (which I can see). However, the hot chocolate song makes it for me and I watch it every year.

Die Hard

It's a Christmas movie, idc.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
