@lilyjmoe

The Grand Canyon University Lopes have a lot going on. There are basketball games to attend, free t-shirts to stand in line for, and construction zones to dodge. But still, during a busy day of Chick-Fil-A milkshakes and Lope Shop sales, there are some questions that the students at GCU would like answered.

1. Where are we on another Chick-Fil-A location?

2. Can we start a "public safety officer of the month" award?

3. If Sunday is a day of rest, then why is homework due then?

4. Did you think we were joking when we asked to pave Colter?

5. Can I apply to be the voice on the fire alarm?

6. Can we require cooking classes before residents move in to an apartment?

7. Can we officially say we've painted the valley purple?

8. Does that accomplishment get us a free t-shirt?

9. Why are there fireworks after every soccer game?

10. Why are the golf carts never available when I need one?

11. What are the chances I can start my own golf cart taxi service?

12. Are you trying to encourage exercise by placing the parking garages on the outskirts of campus?

13. Why did you get rid of main pool?

14. Can we open up a campus at the Grand Canyon?

15. Better yet, IN the Grand Canyon?

16. How do I become best friends with Thunder?

17. Have we thought about an official name change to Grand Construction University?

18. Where did all the old furniture from Starbucks/Peet's/GCBC go?

19. Are faculty required to be awesome conversationalists, or did it just work out that way?

20. Why are classrooms subzero temperatures?

21. Why don't classrooms come with blankets?

22. Can we turn Thunder Alley into a disco club?

23. Is it true that you've "made it" when you're featured in a Canyon commercial?

24. How does the Arena get so loud at basketball games?

25. Can we extend the hours of the Arena Cafe for the sake of bomb grilled cheese sandwiches?

26. How many costumes does Thunder have?

27. Can we keep a running tally of sunset pictures from the roof of the parking garage on the website?

28. When was the last time the washers and dryers in each hall were updated?

29. Can we turn the third floor of the library into another coffee shop?

30. How many gallons of face paint have the Havocs used?

31. Can you offer a "game day face painting" elective class?

32. Would it be bad to rock purple scrubs, even if I'm not a nursing major?

33. Why isn't Midnight Madness a state-wide holiday?

And lastly...

34. Is it just me, or is Lope life the best life?

Whether or not our hard hitting questions are answered anytime soon, the students at Grand Canyon University are proud of their school. Life as a Lope cannot be beat, and we really are curious -- how did we get so lucky? Lopes up!

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.
