10 Reasons Why Having a December Birthday is the Worst

Without a doubt, having a December birthday is pretty horrible. If you have a birthday in the midst of the holiday season, I’m sure you understand the struggle. My entire life, I have been extremely envious of anyone with a nice May birthday or maybe June would have been more convenient. But no, December it is for me. December 26th to be exact, the day after Christmas, as if having a December birthday wasn't bad enough. So here’s to everyone else who has been forced upon having a December birthday.


1. When someone tries to tell you that your birthday isn't that bad

Until you experience having a December birthday, there is no room for your opinion.

2. When your friends and family try to wrap your gifts with CHRISTMAS wrapping paper

THIS IS MY BIRTHDAY. NOT CHRISTMAS. WRAP MY GIFTS ACCORDINGLY.

3. When your entire life is overshadowed by Christmas

Yes, this is one thing that even Jon Snow knows.

4. When everyone is away or has family obligations, so celebrating your birthday with friends is nearly impossible

Can we just start celebrating my half-birthday instead?

5. Even just thinking about my birthday being in the midst of the holiday season...

LOATHE ENTIRELY.

6. Your birthday is frequently forgotten about...

Christmas is more important than my birth. NO BIG DEAL.

7. People with summer birthdays just don't understand

What is so hard to understand?

8. Combined birthday/Christmas gifts

No explanation needed.

9. Let's not forget how EVERYONE has an opinion about your December birthday

"December is the best month for a birthday!" "Wow, December must be the worst month for your birthday!" THANKS FOR YOUR UNWANTED OPINION.

10. But you know what the REAL fuss is about in December

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL OF THE DECEMBER BABIES!!!

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.
