We all know the songs. The ones played at every single wedding. The ones that are meant to be cute but are just so overused it makes you cringe. Did your "favorite" make the list?

1. "Wanted" by Hunter Hayes

You know what I wanted as a wedding guest? Another song.

2. "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri

This song just makes me think of the Twilight series wedding scene. So if you want to be compared to Edward Cullen and Bella Swan in guests' brains, this is a good option.

3. "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran

Want to have the most basic wedding of the year? Use this one. Everyone has been using it for every wedding... since 2014.

4. "Marry You" by Bruno Mars

Unless you are getting married on a whim, in which case you wouldn't really have a wedding song, please just don't. Your guests beg of you.

5. "Hero" by Enrique Iglesias

While this song is a great guilty pleasure song, it isn't the best choice for a wedding. The whispery lyrics are pretty cringeworthy.

6. "Marry Me" by Train

This song is basically just Pat Monahan soulfully singing "marry me" over and over, which to wedding guests is the equivalent of "shoot me."

7. "I Do" by Colbie Caillat

You can't even really slow dance to it? It's a very weird tempo. Also, it just reminds me of the Letters to Juliet soundtrack, and I'm not sure it's a good thing.

8. "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz

Some people hate, hate, hate this song at weddings. Me included.

9. "Make You Feel My Love" by Adele

I love Adele, but anything Adele is usually overplayed. Enough said.

10. "More Than Words" by Extreme

This throwback from the 1990s is still used in weddings. Why? I don't know. 90s hair metal should not be a part of your wedding, especially the couple's dance.

11. "On Top of the World" by Imagine Dragons

Again, just like "I Do" how do you really dance to this? Slow dancing looks awkward. Also, the audience is most likely going to start singing along and starting a weird karaoke thing during your dance.

12. "Endless Love" by Mariah Carey and Luther Vandross

This is the true classic, although it should probably never be used again. Not only is Mariah Carey kind of cringey-worthy but the lyrics are strange. If you are going to use this one, do the original.

For anyone who used one of these, the only question I can ask is, what were you thinking?

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.
