10 College Pet Peeves

You are probably the person on campus that everyone hates if you do these things.

After your first couple semesters on campus, you will start to hate people that do certain things and wish they would drop out because of the way they act. I CAN'T EVEN!

1. Walking on the wrong side of the sidewalk.

I see you and I hate you. all of you. I almost walk into you full force because you haven't learned proper walking etiquette. We drive on the right side, we walk on the right side when walking towards people ALWAYS!

2. Taking someone else's seat in class.

Yes, I am talking to you, guy in my Public Relations Class.

3. Standing on the middle of the sidewalk with others while people are trying to get around you.

4. People who are a distraction during class.

SHUT UP and Turn off your loud music I am trying to get a degree here.

5. Pen clickers and gum chompers.

Just stahp! Find another annoying tick that doesn't disturb someone trying to focus. Chomping gum does not make you look attractive at all.



6. Parents who bring their sick kids to class.

Why are you trying to get the entire class sick?!?! You let your kid play, cry, and scream while I am trying to get an A on this quiz. What are you thinking?! I just need to know!!


7. Classmates who don't participate at all in group projects and make one person do all of the work.

It is not fair. All you do is sit there when we meet up. I wonder what you listen to in your headphones or think about since you don't say anything or do anything to help.

8. People who smell awful or don't shower.

There is such thing as deodorant you know.

9. When people don't show up to class until test day.

Like really? I worked my butt off to be here every day I can while you sleep and drink or do whatever until test day. Don't even try to act like you care on test day and take someone else's seat and ask questions before the test. Your fault. I hope the professor has an attendance policy.

10. Boring lectures without pictures or activities.

Dear professor, please be a little less boring and monotone and help your students out. It helps us learn and pay attention. Thank you.

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.
