Ah, College. It can be the best of times and the worst of times. Are you even a college student if you've never gone from thinking college was the greatest experience of your life one day to considering why you decided to even come to college the next? I know I have, and I think every college student will read at least one of these "Parks and Rec" GIFs and think "Me AF".

1. Coming back from break and realizing you don't have your mom to do everything for you anymore.

What do you mean I have to buy my own groceries?

2. Being determined at the very beginning of the semester to pass all your classes with straight As.

THIS is the semester you finally get your priorities straight.

3. Deciding to 'wing' your Monday test.

Watching reruns of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" instead of studying for your Econ test probably wasn't the best decision after all.

4. Getting your first bad grade of the semester back.

One bad grade IS the end of the world when you started off with such high aspirations.

5. Getting your first good grade of the semester back.

College thought it could tear us down but we are back on top!

6. Having at least one mental break down.

Having three tests and two essays due in the same week can really take a toll on a person.

7. Becoming a therapist for all your friends.

After all, you aren't the only one knee-deep in stress.

8. Those rare nights every now and then when you decide to get decent sleep.

At this point, you've probably forgotten what feeling "not tired" was like.

9. Being reminded how awful group projects are.

Is it even possible to be put in a group where your not the only one doing the work?

10. Eating anything- especially if it's free.

Finally- something other than ramen!

11. Surviving off of naps.

There is ALWAYS time to fit in a nap if you try hard enough.

12. Nearing the end of the semester and having next to no motivation left.

You've made it so far- yet have such a long way to go.

13. Entering finals week.

You will spend most of the week questioning your sanity rather than studying.

14. Surviving the semester AND passing all of your classes.

You somehow managed to survive another semester- maybe college isn't so bad after all!

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.

Power of Love Letters

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.

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.
