10 Thoughts I Have At The Airport
Wikipedia, Mumbai Airport

I love traveling. I love going out of the country, I love traveling domestically, I love road trips and everything in between. I basically grew up on a plane, either going to see family or skipping school for a week to travel with my mom on her adventurous work trips. You could say I lived very daringly and adventurously for a small child, but I liked it. I liked that I didn't know what I was going to do or where I was going to go. And even though airports are exciting, there are just so many thoughts going through my head. Not sure why, but it could be because of lack of sleep or too much coffee. Never anything in between (not surprised at myself, though). So in the spirit of Spring Break travels and being stuck in Newark Airport for several hours, let me take you through a journey inside my head. Shall we?

1. "It is too early."

This is the exact reason why I do not take 8 a.m. classes, but for some reason I do the same thing over and over again. Why?

2. "Who knew so many people loved being up this early."

I see so many people at the airport all happy and chipper except that it's 4 a.m. How? No amount of sleep can prepare me for this day. Never ever.

3. "Where is the Dunkin?"

Dunkin is always a must. Their coffee over everything. You know you need Dunkin really bad if you have a mental break down at the gate. The struggle? Yeah, it's kind of real.

4. "If I get to the gate before everyone else does I can have an unhealthy amount of coffee and not be judged. Awesome!"

It's not an option. It's a necessity. Understand that. #CoffeeGangForLife.

5. "Someone took my unassigned assigned seat. Get with the program guys!"

Oh and the awkward part? Going to find your seat, seeing its taken and then standing there like a weirdo looking for a seat. Come on mad, #HowRude.

6. "Where is my boarding pass?"

This happens at least 10 times a trip. I've never actually lost my boarding pass but I've been really close to it. Typical me though, not surprised.

7. "If I hear one more crying baby ..."

Ah, the perfect staple to a flight. The symphony of baby whaling. What a sweet sound. Not.

8. "Why is the flight crew always late and holding my flight up yet they get to skip security?"

I always see flight crew skipping the lines that I have no choice but to wait in, but these people get all the privileges, but they still make me late? Grandma is waiting for me!

9. "I forgot so many things as home. I know it."So. Many. Things. Every single time.

And its funny because I keep checking myself to double check and after I do I still forget things. I have too many things. *sigh*

10. "WHERE IS MY BOAR- okay its in my hand we're good to go. *whew*"


Okay, I'm good. But now I really need to get my life together. This happens way too often.

So in a nutshell, going to the airport is a disaster.

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.
