26 Things I Did Instead Of My Homework

Though it feels as if the semester has just only started, I have somehow already become buried in work and very behind. Every time a weekend comes up, I promise myself that I will finally get it together and catch up on everything so that the rest of the semester runs more smoothly. This weekend was another case of that. However, I have learned that this is almost always an empty promise to myself, and to prove it, here is a list of everything I did instead of study, on a Sunday night.

1. Finished watching Stranger Things on Netflix

2. Cleaned my room

3. Cleaned my entire apartment

4. Took a long shower

5. Cried about the drought

6. Called my mom

7. Annoyed my mom

8. Downloaded the entire discography of a band that I liked one song by

9. Went on wikipedia to learn everything about the band

10. Went on wikipedia to try and understand 2001: A Space Odyssey

11. Read multiple fan theories about the ending

12. Spent a while contemplating which one made the most sense

13. Spent a while getting angry at myself for letting it get this far

14. Vowed to make a change

15. Responded to some ~academic~ texts

16. Got distracted by Instagram

17. Ended up 142 weeks deep in a random girl's instagram

18. Got distracted by snapchat

19. Accidentally watched someone's story that I didn't want to

20. Got distracted by facebook

21. Threw my phone across the room because clearly I have no self control

22. Went to go make sure that I didn't damage my phone

23. Spent a while deciding what I wanted to listen to

24. Remembered that I downloaded the entire discography of that one band

25. Realized I only liked the one song I already had

26. Finally put on a good playlist and started to read

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.

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.
