If you live in or near St. Louis, Missouri, you know how bad I-44 traffic is due to road construction. I have been driving for almost 5 years, and I regularly have to drive that interstate. When I finally think they are done with construction, they start a new project on the same roads they just finished. I-44 is one of the worst interstates to drive in St. Louis because of the road construction, it's not as bad as I-270 during rush hour, but it's pretty close sometimes.

Since I have always had to deal with driving that interstate with all the road construction, I have decided to put a list together of things that will happen before they are finally done with all the road work.

1. IPhone 8 will be coming out

Should be coming out sometime in 2017!

2. Toy Story Land in Disney World will be finished

There's no official date set yet, but should be opening within the next few years!

3. Me graduating college

Hoping to graduate by 2019.

4. Trump presidency will be over

Unless he tries to go for another 4 years, a new president will be named in 2020, and Trump will be out of office by early 2021.

5. Me having kids

Not really looking to have kids within the next few years, unless something happens. But I know I'll have kids before I-44 construction is done.

6. College will change

Could become more online base instead of going to classrooms. This will help you work a full-time job or take care of your children,etc.

7. Me becoming a grandparent


Hopefully this won't happen for another 30 years, but It will still happen before I-44 is done.

8. Someone will find Waldo

People have been looking since 1987, and no one has yet found him.

9. Flying cars

Heck, we won't even need roads by the time I-44 is done.

10. Cubs winning the World Series

It'll take another 108 years, but it is possible for them too win again before I can drive on I-44 without any issues.

You can never trust that Missouri is ever done with I-44 construction, but you can believe that most of things will happen before they are done. I know road construction is important, and creates many jobs, but it doesn't mean it's not a pain in my butt when I'm trying to get to work. Best of luck to everyone on their travels.

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.
