10 Things To Remember On Days That Aren't So Great
Health Saints

Hannah Montana was right… everybody has those days. But what matters is how you react to your not so perfect days. Remember these 10 things and I guarantee your day won’t be so bad anymore.

1. Take what went wrong today and use it to make tomorrow right.

This speaks for itself. There is no reason to carry over today’s problems into tomorrow. Everyday is a new day, with new potential, and new light.

2. What you give to the universe, the universe will give back to you.

If you say you’re going to fail, you will fail. If you say you are going to be sad today, you will be sad today. The universe has more power than we think!

3. What happened that cannot be fixed eventually?

Put your bad day into perspective, is it really going to affect your whole life?

4. Count your blessings not your problems.

Cliché but so important; our blessings are not guaranteed and as quickly as our problems came, our blessings can leave even more quickly.

5. Never underestimate the power of people.

Find your support group around you. Call your friends or family to just talk. Get coffee with your roommate or watch a movie together. Remove yourself from what is holding you down and detox with positive people surrounding you.

6. Stay true to you.

If you are not living outyour beliefs and dreams you are no longer on the journey to YOUR happiness.

7. It’s just one thing.

It’s one test, it’s one person, and it’s one mistake. It’s not the end of the world.

8. Learn what works and what doesn’t.

Work out in the morning to set the mood for the day, or at night to release built up negative energy. Stop hanging out with people who only complain or those who put you down. It’s your life.

9. Anger is passion in the wrong direction.

Your emotions are spurring from somewhere, for something. Use them.

10. If you are not confident in yourself, nobody will be confident in you.

How you feel about yourself translates with your attitudes, body language, ideas and values. Don’t let people put you down because you feel down. Love yourself and that will shine through to the world.

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.
