10 Things I Definitely Was In A Past Life
Lindsay Terry

Last night, I went to a dance recital off campus to support a friend of mine who was in one of the dances. I love watching the dancers move gracefully and with such purpose across the stage. I took ballet when I was five years old, but other than that I have never dared to set foot on stage and try and show off my "moves." But, the more I watched the recital, the more I wanted to know how to move like the dancers did. After the show, I jokingly said to my friend, "I think maybe I was a dancer in the past life," to which she laughed in response. That right there is where the inspiration for this article came from. Here are ten things I most definitely think I was in a past life....


1. A Dancer.

The intro says it all. Next semester I'm going to join my friend in the beginner class of modern and jazz dance and test out the theory that I was a dancer in the past life.


2. A Trauma Surgeon.

This theory just stems from the fact that I love to watch all and any medical related shows, despite the fact that the sight of blood makes me faint.



3. The First Lady.

How cool would it be to be married to the POTUS? And live in the White House? I could definitely get used to having an indoor bowling alley, movie theatre, and pool in my massive mansion.


4. The Inventor of Soft Serve Ice Cream.

This one simply comes from my obsession with ice cream. I'd be honored to be remembered as the person who invented happiness that is served at ball games, small town shops, and the beach.


5. A Famous Actress.

Maybe I wouldn't necessarily be Marilyn Monroe, but, to be a famous actress who is remembered for decades after her death would be pretty fantastic.


6. The World's Best Chef.

I LOVE food and chef's are good at making food. So, that seems pretty logical.


7. A Spy for the FBI.

This was one of my favorite movies as a kid. I loved all the cool and unlikely gadgets they got to use, and was super impressed by the secret missions.



8. A Hardcore Rapper.

I have no idea where this one came from other than the fact that I have to listen to rap music when my brother and my boyfriend have the AUX cord while I'm driving.



9. A Grammy Award Winning Film Writer.

How awesome would it be to win a Grammy? That's not something you just tape on the refrigerator, that's something you put on the mantle above the fireplace my friends.


10. A British Nanny.

It would be awesome to have a British accent, and a never-ending purse, and a beautiful singing voice. Enough said.

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.
