11 Signs It's Time To Do Your Laundry
Got Laundry?

We have all been there: one pair of pants, a clean sock and a shirt that kind of smells like armpit away from pulling an Adam and Eve. Some of us get so busy with our everyday lives that we put our laundry on the back burner, but we owe it to our favorite pair of jeans to give them a pampering every once in a while. Here are a few signs that it is time to do your laundry:

1. Your "comfy" clothes consists of jeans and a tee shirt.

Your friends are asking why you aren't wearing a pair of leggings on your way to a long night in the library—it's because you don't have a clean pair. You have to settle for a more constricting textile.

2. This is the fourth day in a row you have re-worn the same pair of socks.

When you take your socks off, there is an immediate explosion of a wretched smell. Those socks can only absorb so much sweat.

3. You have to dig deep in the closet to find more clothing options.

It is like finding a needle in a haystack.

4. You end up borrowing your roommate's clothes.

When all hope is lost, a good roommate usually comes in clutch for extending your desperate laundry situation.

5. There is not a laundry basket big enough to fit all of the clothes you need to clean.

When the overflow of dirty clothes is so much that you may need to consider buying a new laundry basket to accommodate this situation.

6. You layer clothes specifically to hide a stain.


In order to hide that pizza stain on your favorite sweatshirt, you opt for the subtle but very fashionable scarf to hide your favorite Italian dish.

7. Thinking about doing your laundry looks something like this.

8. Finding change for the laundry machine is an all-day affair.

In a world where everything is paid for with plastic, finding spare change to use for the washing machine could be a difficult challenge.

9. You finally take the time to fix your laundry situation.

We do our best to fold and put away all of our clothes just like how Mom does it at home.

10. When your laundry is done, your wardrobe has completely changed.


With all the clean clothes added to your wardrobe, you feel like a new person!

11. Give it two weeks, and you are back to square one.


Like anything in life, even laundry has cycles. Two weeks go by, and you are back to having to deal with a laundry crisis!

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.
