10 Signs You Went To Catholic School
Meme Guy

Hello, my name is Sandra Williams and I'm a Catholic School survivor. LOL! That was pretty dramatic but going to Catholic School your whole life kind of feels that way. I was in Catholic School from 1st grade all the way to 12th grade and honestly you can tell after a while who has grown up in the Catholic School system and who has not. You sort of have this sixth sense so here are a 10 signs you went to Catholic School. Let's get this party started... Yes, I'm corny for just saying such an old phrase. Let me live.

1. You Had Class With The Same 30 or 40 Kids For Almost A Decade.

There were rarely any new students in your classes. It was literally just the same kids for majority of your childhood.

2. You Wore The Same Outfit Every. Fu#king. Day.

Not gonna lie, I loved wearing uniform everyday but only because I never had to waist time figuring out what I wanted to wear for the day.

3. All Of Your Writing Is Mostly In Cursive.

Admit it. All of your work is in cursive. No one's judging you here.

4.You Feel Weird When Your Outfit Isn't Neat.

Every time you have a nice shirt on you feel the need to tuck it in. But you know what? You're not in Catholic School anymore. Pull your shirt out of your pants. Live a little!

5. You Are Always Cautious Around Nuns.


The nuns in my school were never allowed to actually hit us but they still installed a sense of fear into our brains. Ever get caught talking during class by a nun? It's the scariest thing you will ever experience growing up. Never do it... NEVER. But once you're all grown up, nothing seems to scare you anymore so that's a plus.

6. You Were Always Encouraged To Have An Open Mind.


I think this picture speaks for itself. Moving on.

7. You Were Never Taught About Sex.


In Catholic School it was just implied that if you had sex before you were married, you die. No if's and's or but's.

8. You Show Off Your "Survival" Anytime You Can.

You survived Catholic School. Why not tell the world?

9. You Understand What People Mean When They Call Their K-8 Catholic School A "Grammar School."

10. You Always Tried To Dance Around the Dress Code & Prayed There Wasn't A Uniform Check.

I always used to wear black sneakers that looked like shoes and prayed I wouldn't get caught. Turns out I only got caught twice. I'd say that's pretty good.

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.
