Curls for days.

If you have curly hair you may already know everyday is another challenge. Lately it has been hot and muggy out which makes my curly crazy hair extra impossible to keep up with.

These are some daily occurrences that I have happened way too many times.

1. Humidity

Yes curly hair's worst enemy. So most of us curly haired people can not stand the summer.


2. Dry it Straight

When people with straight hair just tell you to dry your hair straight.

I am sorry what ? That is not possible. It is not like going to bed with braided hair and waking up with wavy hair.

3. Hair brushes

We all have been there at least once where your hair isn't having it.

It would probably take you a long while to detangle your brush out of your hair.


4. Conditioner is Key

Sometimes you feel like you use half a bottle in one wash.


5. Rain

When it rain can just ruin your hair in a split second.


6. WOW! You have so much hair

Having to explain that the natural volume of your hair just makes it look 10x bigger than it actually is.

7. As a child being compared to a broom or a mop. Always made you wish you had straight hair.

9. Shampoo commercials

When you watch commercials that advertise shampoo for curly hair , but the hair model doesn't even have curly hair….

10. The question

Every time you answer the question "how long does it take to straighten your hair" Your answer always makes you think why do you even bother straightening your hair.

11. The Unknown

You never know how your hair is going to end up when you air dry.

12. Taming

It takes a lot of time and patience to maintain curly hair and sometimes it includes putting a lot gunk in your hair.

13. Please do not touch

Some people are just fascinated by curly hair but as I said before it takes a lot to maintain it , therefore please do not touch!

13.Badass

We can all admit that having curly hair automatically makes you a bad ass.

Curly hair is just a blessing in disguise. Our hair reflects how bouncy and fun we can be.

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.
