Looking for some things to make you smile, dance, relax, think, and have a moment to yourself? Scroll on.

1. Need a quick personal dance session? Here you go.

They Don't Know by Ariana Grande and Can't Stop The Feeling by Justin Timberlake

You can't help but groove and sing along to these fun songs from the movie Trolls. If you've got kids, they'll enjoy these songs too.

2. Spice up everyday life with cinematic vlogs.

Video blogging documents parts of everyday life. While shaky cameras, iPhone edits, and turned off mics are common features of vlogs, MAZELEE turns the mundane into a little movie. They've got a large family and a whole lot of love and obstacles they don't mind sharing with the world.


3.Can't afford to always look nice? Just play dress-up.

You can dress up men, babies, professionals, even tigers (with stripes, that is). Putting clothes on other people has never been more peaceful, priceless, and fun. Makes you feel like a kid again.

4. Nothing worthwhile happened today? Well, something probably did...years ago...

This Day In History gives you a glimpse into the past on the exact same day. It's a simple (non-comprehensive) and easy way to learn about the world as it was and is, from historical American events to foreign wars, and pop culture. In an alternate universe it's all probably happening again...so no day is ever really boring.

5. Have no friends or board games to play with? Watch other people play instead.

SourceFedPlays plays with a variety of fun board games, card games, and mobile apps. Watching coworkers and friends enjoy good old fashion entertainment with each other is not only fun but gives you ideas for your game night!

6. Looking to treat yourself? Clearance on novelty items never felt so good!

You probably won't need anything from these websites, but the stuff is cool and you know you love it.

Modcloth

Zazzle

Red Bubble

7. Looking for something good and new-ish to watch? Try these!

The CW's No Tomorrow follows Evie Covington's newfound carpé diemm-ing adventures when she gets involved with a charming man who believes the apocalypse is "nigh". You can catch online on the CW, Netflix, and Amazon. And if you haven't already, check out NBC's "This Is Us" (also on Hulu), "a smart, modern dramedy that will challenge your everyday presumptions about the people you think you know". Basically, good laughs, good cries, and #relationshipgoals.

8. Need advice or just looking for some pure laughs? All you need is a podcast (or two).

Hank and John Green are brothers you may know from YouTube or their success as entrepreneurs and a novelist. Or you don't know them. Either way, they're smart, funny, and go for the weird stuff always on Dear Hank and John.

Comedian, musician, and YouTuber Mike Falzone and his wife Zoja recount their experiences and talk about current events on Welcome To Our Podcast. Mike's silly laugh and Zoja's smooth voice make listening to people you can't see enjoyable.

9. Looking to feel a range of emotions? Look no further than Cut and {AND}.

Cut films kids eating foreign food, people playing Truth or Drink, and parents explaining things to kids. {AND} on The Skin Deep explores relationships and emotions between friends, parents and children, lovers, and strangers. 6 out of 10 times you will probably feel sad or shed a tear while watching {AND}. But you'll also smile and feel warm.

10. Looking for a voice of confidence, support, unity, and some hardcore tweets? Follow the ACLU on Twitter.

The American Civil Liberties Union has been on fire lately, and their tweets are informative, empowering, and sassy. They're not here to play games, and if they were, well - they'd be winning. Their strides to protect and support various communities and ways of life give me a calm feeling, even when things are rough.


Hope your week has spots of peace and happiness!

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
