10 Signs You Belong At The Beach
Danielle Pierce

1. Summer is your favorite season.

This is mainly because it’s the only season where it’s socially acceptable to spend every waking hour at the beach.

2. There is sand in almost every article of clothing you own.

It’s no longer a surprise to you that there are mini sandcastles in your shoes and sweatshirt pockets.

3. You're most comfortable in a swim suit.

Bikinis? Boardshorts? As long as you don’t have actual clothes on, you’re pretty content with life.

4. You own a beach cruiser that you ride to the beach.

What is a mountain bike, anyway? They can’t pedal through sand, which is a no-go for biking to the beach. Plus, you need the beach cruiser to give your friends rides on your handlebars.

5. You treasure your beach chair.

Your beach chair has backpack straps and a cooler pouch. There’s really nothing else you need in life.

6. Your spot is your spot.

Yes, you have a spot. If your friends and family are looking for you, they know exactly which beach block you are on and if you sit to the left or right of the lifeguard chair.

7. You can easily point out those visiting for the day.

Maybe it’s the fact they have on an elaborate “beach” outfit, or have brought a camping chair with them. Either way, you can spot them from a mile away.

8. You take naps on the beach.

You are guilty of waking up in the morning, going to the beach, and falling back asleep in the sun.

9. Salt water makes you happy.

There’s really nothing else like a dip in the ocean on a beautiful beach day.

10. You appreciate the value of a good beach day.

If you spent the day relaxing seaside, you know your day was pretty much perfect!

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.
