11 Things To Do Before Spring Semester

It's only a few short weeks away, spring semester! I'm sure everyone is looking forward to packing all those Christmas presents and heading back to campus. So, before the stress begins, yet again, get out there and enjoy the rest of your break.

1. Hang out with that one friend you only talk to during break.

It's important, you will have fun, and maybe you'll find out some dirty gossip about that one girl from high school.

2. Go out one last time.

Gather up the crew and hit the bars one more time before everyone goes their separate ways for another semester.

3. Go to your favorite restaurant.

I always do this one the day before I leave, but trust me, every single calorie is worth it, I promise!

4. Spend time with your family.

Regardless of if it's just Mom and Dad, or all the siblings (and their dogs), stay home for a night with them. They miss you, more than you know when you're away.

5. Relax for an entire day.

Don't plan anything. Do whatever it is you do to relax. Take a bath, go for a run, or just watch Netflix all day long. Take one last day to yourself before heading back to the chaos.

6. Go on an adventure.

Great falls, DC, or wherever the road takes you. Find a friend. Get in the car and just go!

7. Go see that movie that looks oh so good!

Even if it's "Star Wars," go see it. Maybe if you take your mom, she'll even pay.

8. Make your list of everything you need to take back.

Spring break is a long way away, so don't forget that top you love.

9. Buy the things you need to make spring semester the best semester yet!

Notebooks, books, pens, and those adorable shoes.

10. Laundry

Just do it because its free, plus sometimes Mom folds it!

11. Take it all in.

Some are going back for their last semesters, others for their first spring semester. Regardless, school is just not the same as home, and even if you never admit it, it's always nice to be home.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
