Riffsy

When you listen to literally every kind of music, it's hard for people to put labels on you. And sometimes, people just don't understand how you can be into so many different types of music at once. Maybe it's because you're not as picky as everyone else, or you're open-minded enough to see the beauty in a wide variety of genres, but regardless, it makes you a special kind of person. Here are 10 things anyone with eclectic tastes in music will recognize.

1. You hate it when people ask you what your favorite type of music is.

"Is your favorite pop, R&B, metal, or country?"

"Yes."

2. You can't keep up with what the latest song trends are.

You might not be able to keep track of what the newest, most popular thing in music is, but that doesn't mean you don't love a good throwback

3. You can go from listening to classic jazz to French pop and back again in an instant.

You're pretty much a musical chameleon.

4. Your friends don't trust you with their aux cord because they don't know what to expect.

But when they do let you control the music, they ultimately end up finding new music that they like too.

5. You get way too excited when you find someone who likes an obscure band that you're into.

Because finding someone who's also into that indie Japanese funk-rock band is truly a miracle.

6. You HATE listening to the radio because they only play the same five songs over and over again.

When you forget to bring your aux cord, you would rather drive in silence alone with your thoughts than listen to the radio .

7. It's impossible to see all your favorite artists in concert.


Half of your favorite artists are probably either dead, international, or film composers, which means you're never going to be able to enjoy their music live. So while your friends are at the concert for their one favorite artist, you'll be crying by yourself.

8. People think you're a hipster because of the music you listen to.

But you're not a hipster, you're more of a music "collector."

9. Sometimes you wish you could just be more mainstream with your music tastes.

I mean, who needs all the heartbreak that comes with such unique music tastes?

10. But then you remember how awesome the music you listen to is and decide to forget the haters.

After all, variety is the spice of life.

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.

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.
