13 Things You Experience While Flying

The security line sucks, but the cost of your pretzels is worse

13 Things You Experience While Flying
rd.com

Going on vacation seems like the best thing in the world, especially when it only takes a few hours to get where you want to go by plane. Unfortunately, the airport and your plane ride may be ruined by some of these things.

1. Long airport lines.

Seriously when the security line is longer than your flight, you're in trouble.

2.The weird person next to you who doesn't shut up.

You're lucky if you sit next to the cute man who offers you gum.

3. That person who brings their own pasta.

Is it necessary to eat your leftovers at 3:00 a.m. on a plane where everyone can smell your food?

4. The screaming child.

Sometimes you have them on all sides and it's even worse when they're kicking your seat and you're trying to fall asleep.

5. Crying over the dogs you see in the terminals.

If you're lucky you're on the flight with the pup who has to walk up the aisle for exercise.

6. The immediate standing up the second the plane taxis to the gate.


Seriously people you don't need to speed off — there are people in front of you and the door isn't open yet just sit down

7. Having to use the restroom but you're on the window and don't know your seat mates.

Guess you're gonna have to wait.

8. The safety information that no one pays attention to.

9. Sky Mall!


I can't be the only one who spent their entire flight decking out their brand new home with awesome pet and pool supplies. Why did they go out of business?!

10. That person who stands up when the seatbelt sign is still on.

Seriously?

11. The people who IMMEDIATELY make a call.

Bonus points if it is to their significant other to give them a detailed explanation of the flight loud enough for the entire cabin to hear

12. The lady that's freaked out and is terrified of flying.

13. Everything costs money on your flight.


Want the WiFi — it'll cost you. Everything you may want to make your trip enjoyable will come at a price- including the air you're breathing.

While these things seem daunting, a plane is the quickest way to get around and totally worth it.

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.
