It's that time of the semester again. The one that we've been dreading since the beginning --midterms. Many students are just cracking open their books for the first time since buying the textbooks. Now, they're cramming seven weeks worth of information into a long weekend study session. No one likes to study, especially for an entire weekend. Here are 40 things I'd rather do than study for midterms:

1. Let my 5-year-old nephew do my make up.

2. Blindfold my best friend and let her cut my hair.

3. Throw my phone off the balcony of my dorm on the 17th floor.

4. Only watch the saddest episodes of every show.

5. Cover my hand in paper cuts.

6. Pour a whole bottle of Purell on my freshly cut hands.

7. Eat dinner with Donald Trump.

8. Get locked in a room with my ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend.

9. Only wake up at 5 a.m. for the rest of the year.

10. Only take 8 a.m. classes for the rest of my college career.

11. Re-organize a Forever 21 store.

12. Break my foot, again.

13. Lose my glasses.

14. Have a giant van drive through a puddle and cover me in dirty street water.

15. Tweeze off my leg hair instead of shaving.

16. Pour boiling hot water on my legs.

17. Have all of my Tinder conversations published on my social media and not be able to erase them.

18. Wear Crocs.

19. Ride the subway for 24 hours straight with a performer in the car.

20. Shave off one of my eyebrows.

21. Be stuck in the car with my dad giving me life lectures for 10 hours.

22. Only get instructions in Russian for the rest of my life.

23. Never be able to use Netflix, again. (Okay that one might be a lie)

24. Dye my hair booger green.

25. Marry Dwight from "The Office."

26. Only be able to speak in Pig Latin.

27. Move in with Jason Voorhees.

28. Do a juice cleanse every other week.

29. Lick a frat house bathroom.

30. Drop my phone on my face every time I use it in bed.

31. Have my nose ring get stuck on my pillowcase every night.

32. Only be able to post the most embarrassing pictures of myself on social media.

33. Have to go re-live my high school years.

34. Use my awkward middle school picture for my professional website.

35. Only eat the purple Skittles.

36. Have Dr. Seuss write all my essays.

37. Always show up an hour late to everything.

38. Get introduced to a guy's parents on the first date.

39. Have the world's slowest Internet.

40. Have Dr. Dre as my dentist.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
