With COVID-19 still an issue, we won't be able to spend Valentine's Day the same way we did last year. We've celebrated just about every holiday in a quarantine style fashion, and Valentine's Day is the only holiday left besides St. Patrick's Day that missed the mark. Unfortunately, that means romantic gestures might have to be done a little differently. Romantic dinners out probably won't be the move for most couples this year, but that doesn't mean you have to throw out celebrating the whole holiday in general. There are plenty of fun at-home ideas you can put together for you and your special valentine to enjoy. Here are just a few of them.

1. Throw some aprons on and have a pizza making date.

Take my word for it, the aprons will come in handy as flour will most definitely be flung everywhere. Clean up will pale in comparison to how much fun you'll have cooking together.

2. Build a fort and watch a funny rom-com together.

A simply classic option. Grab some comfy pjs and whole lot of pillows and enjoy a cozy movie night in with your sweetheart.

3. Plan a high stakes, high rewards game night!

Whether it's a series of card games, board games, or an intense round of Mario Kart, set up some rules and add some stakes. Loser pays for dinner!

Whatever you do decide to partake in this holiday, make sure you are spending it with the one who you the love most and of course, stay safe while doing so. Happy Valentine's Day!

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
