10 Things Students Feel/ Do When Spring Break Is Near
E Greens

Spring semester is one that you wish would hurry up and end (especially if you are a graduating senior). And the weeks leading up to spring break are long and tedious. You hate being at school, you don't even try for your 8am anymore, and if you live anywhere above Tenessee, it is too cold to wear anything that doesn't make you look like a marshmallow.

These are things that are bound to happen in the weeks leading up to spring break:

1. You begin to get sick and tired of every single person that you have to see on a regular basis. You start to get irritated with the little ways that people do certain things. You don't hate anyone, but you could definitely use a little break from spending time with them.

2. Your papers become less and less professional and more and more like you don't care. You begin to turn in papers and say things like, "this is trash, but oh well." You just turn it in and hope for the very best.

3. You start to wonder why February does not have a break-worthy holiday. Like, why can't I have a week off for Valentine's day?

4. The last two weeks before break become a complete joke. All you want is to be home or leaving for your spring break trip.

5. You miss the home cooked food like nobody's business. You cannot stand to eat the food at the dining hall much longer. You actually start to wonder how much food is necessary to keep you alive.

6. You begin to skip 10 point assignments when the class is out of 150+ points. Does it really matter if I miss one?

7. If you are doing an internship, you start becoming part of your agency staff and counting down the hours until 4 (or 5) gets here and you get to go back to campus. You start to sound like the employees.

8. You begin to become very bitter about the cold weather. Because spring is on your mind and you just want to be able to wear a light jacket instead of looking like a marshmallow.

9. You constantly some state of permanently exhausted pigeon. And you wonder why everyone else is looking like a swan. But whatever, people feed pigeon fries on a consistent basis. So it's cool.

10. You are constantly looking at your car and thinking that you should wash it on a nice day. But you never do. And you just wait for the rain to get rid of the salt.

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.
