10 Commendable Reasons To Skip THAT Class, No Sweat
Wikipedia

Let's face it. College is hard. Managing your time is hard.

Getting enough food, water, and sleep is hard. Everything is just so much harder in college. Going to all of your classes is hard enough. But getting yourself motivated to go to that one class that just isn't doing it for you is impossible.

It is not good to skip every single class but here are some circumstances where skipping is just totally acceptable.

1. You haven't eaten yet today

Being healthy comes before anything and if you need food, go get yourself some good food.

2. You are tired and need to get some sleep

Again, being healthy always comes first. It's understandable you may need an extra hour or two.

3. You previewed the material already

When professors put the slides up online it really is a blessing. If you previewed the material and understand it well, you are all set.

4. You already did all of the homework

This goes along with previewing the material, if you already did the homework then you already understand. In some classes, you are able to do the homework so far in advance.

5. You need a mental break

College is an important time to cater to what you need and learn about yourself. If you are way too stressed and feel like you may explode, that class is not very important. Always make sure you are mentally okay even if it means taking a break once in a while.

6. You have a headache

If you have a headache you are probably not going to pay attention in class anyway. There is a good chance that it will make your headache worse.

7. Your friend in that class isn't going

If you have that one buddy in class who you always sit with and they say they aren't going. Chances are if you go you will just feel lonely the whole time.

8. You are already late

Honestly, if you are already running late you are going to be that awkward kid that walks in halfway through class. Do you really wanna do that to yourself?

9. The professor doesn't take attendance

They won't know if you are there or not so if you are not feeling it, there won't be repercussions.

10. You don't feel like going

The world will go on.

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.

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.
