It is that time of the year again. You probably think I'm talking about the wonderful magical time of Christmas, right? Wrong, I'm talking about the dreaded week of finals. It doesn't matter if it is your first round of finals or your last the stress and pressure of them never fully goes away. "But you have dead week to prepare. It isn't that bad." Excuse me while I laugh at that statement because have you seen a dead week schedule, it might actually be worse than finals week itself. Here are 20 terrible things I would rather do than prepare/take my finals.


1. Go to the dentist.

2. Watch two hours of Fox news.

3. Work a double.

4. Have to drink decaf coffee for a week.

5. Get a shot.

6. Watch a movie you hate.

7. Sit in standstill traffic.

8. Not be able to get into your favorite bar for a week.

9. Have to eat a weeks worth of meals you dislike.

10. Deal with old high school drama.

11. Stub your toe.


12. Not have a Netflix account all of Christmas break.

13. Spend all day cooking a meal only to ruin it in the end.

14. Have to watch UofL play sports.

15. Fall in love with shoes only to find out they are out of your size and backordered until after season.

16. Drop your favorite makeup and it shatter.

17. Have to wear your clothes inside-out for a week.

18. Sit in on a four+ hour long flight with three screaming babies.

19. Watch a "final thoughts: Tomi" video.

20. Show up to a concert only to realize you forgot the tickets and will miss half of the show now.


Good luck and happy finals, ya'll.

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.

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.
