14  Times The People Of 'Napoleon Dynamite' Were All Of Us During The Summer
Giphy

Summertime is a great time. It's arguably the greatest time of year. No more classes, less stress, more sunshine, more opportunities...three months of endless possibility. Napoleon Dynamite and his friends/family know that.

1. That beautiful moment when you finish your last final and it is officially summer

And it's time to roll out.

2. When people ask you what you are planning to do this summer

Because we are free human beings with three months of school-less bliss.

3. And some of those plans include being on the computer all day

Without school, you have time to enjoy the internet without feeling guilty about it.

4. But eventually some of your friends convince you to actually experience the world

Even if it's not the best idea.

5. When you see someone's insane "swimsuit bod"

To quote Macklemore: "Ima go to the beach but I'm not taking my shirt off in public."

6. When you decide to get all "artsy" and try to take photos with your friends

Summer is probably the best time to go out and do some impromptu photo shoots.

7. When your parents make you do chores, even though it's summer

"Mom, I can't go out and feed the llama...I just got out of a stressful school year. It's too much."

8. There's always that intense game of groundies

Or hide and seek, or sardines, or even tag if you're feeling up to it. You're never too old for outdoor games.

9. Of course, there's always the intense heat of the summer that you don't necessarily get during the school year

Gotta stay hydrated.

10. If you're lucky, you get more chances to pick people up from the airport

Pro Tip: Signs are always appreciated.

11. When you complain to your parents about the lack of food in the house in the hopes that they will go to the grocery store

If you're coming back from college, summer should be the time that you don't have to pay for your own food.

12. But you are then forced to take matters into your own hands

Fishing is a summer activity right?

13. Then the disillusionment of the freedom of summer hits

Responsibilities that you have tried desperately to avoid start to pile up.

14. And you realize that you actually need money

...and sometimes you have to be creative. I hear Michael's has some great crafting supplies.


But even then, we love you, Summer.*


*The season, not the girl

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.
