16 Things On My Christmas Break Bucket List

Finals are over, and now we have five weeks of freedom. Forget about that L (or the multiple L's) you got this semester and focus on the next month without class, homework, and group projects. Most of the time, people spend their breaks asleep; however this year, I wanted to give my break some purpose, so here is my brief Christmas Break bucket list:

1. Read at least 3 books

2. Wrap my Christmas gifts like a boss

3. Teach my 96-year-old grandma how to use her new iPhone

4. Go to Target at least once a day

5. Sell all my textbooks on Amazon

6. Give supplies to Blue Star Moms of America

7. Shred all my schoolwork

8. Drink more hot chocolate than humanly possible

9. Go to Rhema for the millions of Christmas lights & hot cocoa

10. Sleep at least 12 hours a day

11. Write a family newsletter

12. Do random acts of kindness

13. Intensely wedding plan

14. Not check D2L once

15. Get a gym membership (lol)

16. Finish Season 12 of Grey’s Anatomy

What will you do with yours?

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.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
