For a Little R&R

After finals, there is nothing you need more than a little rest and relaxation, what a better way to do that than taking a bath. Now, the perfect bath is a well-planned art, so make sure you have all these items on deck to destress.

1. Bath Bomb


If you are taking a bath without a bath bomb, why even bother. Lush has probably the best bath bombs ever, not to mention bubble bars or bath oils, but many other companies make their own version if you are not able to get your hands on one from Lush.


2. Candle


Nothing screams rest and relaxation like a scented candle. Match your candle to your bath bomb to be extra fancy, or just light them all up and fill your bathroom with a cozy glow.


3. Robe


Don't let the comfort end after your bath, make sure you have a super fluffy robe to hang out in after your relaxing soak.


4. Scented Lotion


Make sure to seal in all the moisture from your Lush bath bomb by moisturizing after the bath. Use a scented lotion to make sure the scent lasts and so does your chill.


5. Entertainment


Since you probably do not want to be alone with you post-finals panic, make sure to bring some relaxing entertainment to fill the silence. Try playing music or reading a book, preferably not a textbook.


6. Bath Pillow


After all that stress you totally need a place to rest your head and the hard ledge of the bath just won't cut it. Try a bath pillow like this, to make your soak that much more comfortable.


7. Facemask


If you are anything like me you eat terribly during finals. All the greasy food and sugar combined with stress won't leave your skin feeling great, so try a face mask to help it.


8. Hair Mask


While you are at it might as well do a hair mask as well. My favorite hair masks have argon oil because they leave your hair super soft and smelling great


9. SipCaddy


This contraption gives you a handy cup or snack holder while you are in the bath. If you ever didn't know you needed something, it is this, now all you need is a drink.


10. Drink


Sipping a mug of tea is sure to enhance your experience while steeping in the bath. Depending on how stressful you finals week was you might need something a little stronger if you are 21 that is.


11. Snack

It's the holiday season, AKA the time of the year where I completely give up on being healthy. Bring your favorite snack with you to really make the experience the best it can be.


Happy holidays and good luck on finals if you aren't already done. Destressing is important, so make sure to give yourself the break you need.

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.

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.
