If you live in New York City or in the surrounding area then you've probably hoped on the "6" train, also known as the green line. If you live on the East side of Manhattan, Upper East Side, East Harlem, or the Bronx, then you known exactly which train I'm talking about. The "6" train goes along the East side of the city, from the Brooklyn Bridge to Pelham Bay Park. this train is notorious for being late, having ridiculous long wait times, and suddenly becoming express in the middle of the route. If you live,work, and go to school on the East side, like me, then the trek and ride on "6" is truly a daily struggle.


1. Ugh, do I just want to walk the twenty blocks or take the two stops on the train?

2. It's raining...train it is.

3. Swipe...Swipe...why the hell aren't you swiping. My monthly lasts till the end of the day!?

4. Why is it so damn hot down here, it's like winter above ground?

5. Shit.. the train is here ( starts full on sprinting through the station)

6. Welp, just shut my arm in the door and still missed it.

7. Can I sue the city of New York for having a personal injury from a subway door?

8. They don't need to shut that fast or be that heavy...seems unnecessary.

9. Eleven minutes till the next "6"?! Who has that kind of time... it's a Thursday morning?!

*Eleven minutes later (feels like eleven years)

10. Finally... and there's about 6 billion people on this train.

11. Let me just squeeze myself in here...

12. Okay, this kid is stabbing me with his toy while his mom's backpack is just slowly crushing my foot.

13. I have to pee.

14. I wonder how disgusting a bathroom on a subway would be...

15. Oh my god. how have we not stopped yet.


16. I wonder how many people have touched this pole today. Excuse me sir, please don't touch me...

17. I wonder if being a stripper on the subway would be a good business idea?

18. Great, here comes a huge mass of people that are not going to let other's out first.

19. Oh look at that, a rat eating another rat. Nature is beautiful.

20. Now let's watch as people attack the subway seats like a pack of lions on a dead zebra carcass

21. THE HEAVEN GATES HAVE OPENED (aka it's my stop)

22. Okay let's just violently shove me off out of the subway car.

23. I feel like we look like herd of cattle when we all gather around the platform steps

24. I can see the light!

25. Ugh, fresh air, thank you world.

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.
