Oh, like I haven't heard that before.

Sometimes, despite the stress that life brings, you have to find a way to laugh about it. With all the craziness and stress from this semester, the need for relief from school grows stronger each day. With two more months left of this semester, I find myself counting down the days until Thanksgiving break. But, you know, students aren't the only ones counting down the days until break. Teachers are too! From students with sleepless nights filled with several assignments, and teachers whose weekends are overtaken with hundreds of papers and tests to be graded, we ALL need a break. With all of this being said, I hope you find the humor in these eleven things teachers always say:

1. "You will use this in the future."

Yeah, okay. Me waiting to use algebra in life...

2. "This isn't something you can do in one night."

Challenge accepted.

3. "Did I say you could pack up yet?"

Noooooooooo. But if the bell is gonna ring in 0.393108 seconds, does it really matter?

4. "I need a holiday... a very long holiday."

Gurl, me too.

5. "I need all of you to stop what you're doing and listen."

But didn't you just give us an assignment to do? Now you want us to stop? I can work and listen at the same time.


6. "You should remember this from last year."

Um, no. I do not remember anything from last year. I do not remember any of the formulas, statements, or equations that you made me memorize. If I had to even try and recall something from the previous school year, my brain would probably just do this:

7. "Look it up."

Me: "How do you spell ____________?"

Teacher: "Look it up."

Fam, I just told you that I don't know how to spell it.

8. "I didn't say start talking."

Ugh, I can't stand this one...

9. "Any questions?"

If I have a question, I will ask it. bYE

10. "The bell does not dismiss you. I do."

Pssshhh please, if the bell does not dismiss me, then it does not determine when I arrive to your class. When that bell rings, I'm leaving that class like:

11. "Sit the right way."

If there is one thing I have learned about sitting in a desk at school, it's all the different ways you can sit in that desk. I'm always sitting in all kinds of crazy ways to get comfortable, even though the only thing those desks are good for is popping your back on the chair.

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.
