27 Things To Add Culture To Your Life
Pusheen

1. Find a Park

You don’t necessarily have to go to it, I suppose, just find where it is.

2. Look at Stars

Look at a light pollution map, find a dark area, drive there, and look at the sky (works best at night).

3. Watch a Film

Find something classy, like indie films that look like the entire thing has the Clarendon filter over it.

4. Go to a Library

I always forget how much I love libraries. Bruh, the entire place smells like old books and they’re ALL FREE. You can just take ‘em. Amazing.

5. Cook Something from a Video You Saw on Facebook

Technically, you're supposed to eat every day anyway, so no extra expense.

6. Draw Something

It doesn’t have to look good; just say that’s the aesthetic you’re going for, like a Picasso.

7. Exist

Just chill on this ride through space, fam.

8. Make a Website

Then you can update everyone with things you think they want to know, for some reason.

9. Read a Blog

Preferably about something incredibly specific and nuanced. Become an expert and tell all your friends.

10. Start a Blog

Preferably about something incredibly specific and nuanced. Become an expert and show all your friends by linking it to your website.

11. Transcend this Plane of Existence

Nothing says “cultured” quite like superseding your corporeal form.

12. Go on a Picnic

Basket: optional.

Tiny sandwiches: mandatory.

13. Start Learning a Language

Even just a couple words is a good start.

14. Speak with Computers

Learning a language = fancy. Computers = fancy. Learning computer code = nerd, somehow. You should still do it though.

15. Memorize a Poem

You never know when you’ll need it.

16. Call Your Legislators

Nothing is more cultured than being an involved citizen!

17. Do More Push-ups

You know who valued physical exercise? Leonardo da Vinci.

18. Run.

Run.

19. Take Super Aesthetic-y Photos for your Instagram

Be the aesthetic you want to see in your feed.

20. Make a Mini-Movie on your Snapchat

Or just take more videos of your dog wandering around your house. Up to you.

21. Collage Something

Video collage, photo collage, paper collage - it all works.

22. Write Letters to Your Friends

Bonus points for delivering through the mail.

23. Write Letters to Your Enemies

Bonus points for delivering by trained hawk.

24. Write Literally Anything

You could write the next great American novel. You probably won't but like, you could, theoretically.

25. Start a Dream Journal

Lucid dreaming is just the next step toward real-life Inception, I promise.

26. Study, I guess

You probably need to tbh.

27. Hang Out at Coffee Shops

The more obscure the better, and you can only go to Starbucks ironically.

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.
