"Halloweekend" is in the past, but the memories will surely live on forever. If you are a University of Utah student, you probably meandered down to U street on Saturday to witness the seemingly endless debauchery taking place. Flashback to last year when people were crowd surfing, an astronaut offered to take me to the moon, and cops lined the street throwing tear gas. College kids mixed with Halloween exposes what is really wrong with humanity... or what is awesome about it depending on how you look at it. Here is some crazy shit I witnessed this year:

1. A guy in a lizard suit peeing on someone's lawn in front of small children.

2. A guy possibly dressed as the Babadook hanging out a fourth story window and jumping.

3. Shaggy from Scooby Doo falling asleep on someone's car.

4. Sexy unicorns spraying people with glitter.

5. A redneck throwing firecrackers into the heart of the crowd.

6. A guy who offered me a cigarette because he was "lung cancer" for Halloween and had hundreds of cigarettes taped to his body.

7. Two girls humping each other and then looking into the eyes of two dudes saying, "Take notes boys!"

8. People jumping on top of cars trying to drive on the street or people getting into the cars that drove on the street... (why anyone would think it would be a good idea to drive on U street during Halloween deserves whatever horror is in store for them).

9. The fights that broke out while people yelled "WORLD STAR!!" and then me hoping someone didn't get stabbed by the shards of broken glass from beer bottles lining the street.

10. The line of about 10 cop cars that blockaded the one-way street in order to end the madness. (Classic ending to a classic U street celebration).

Yeah, I am gonna need to visit my therapist this week after witnessing the absolute decline of humanity and the primal state people resort to while wearing costumes and drinking alcohol. This is why millennials can't have nice things.

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.
