5 Carrots With Charming Backstories
Barbara Cooks

Just as every person has a story, every vegetable has a story, and I truly believe this. Think I'm joking? Walk into any supermarket and hit up the produce aisle. You'll feel what I mean. There's an energy there, almost indescribable, that hints at something more for the vegetables on the shelf. I feel like vegetables are another one of humanity's great-unknowns, right up there with deep space and the depths of the ocean. I'm shocked that no one has looked into this yet, so I took it upon myself to observe a few carrots in the store and record my findings. Some were quite interesting and surprisingly similar to me and to people I have met before. Take a look at snapshots of carrot life, and see for yourself that there is a little bit of carrot in all of us.

1. Leisurely, Artistic Carrot

This carrot is having a nice, relaxing day off of work today. He is thinking about buying a calligraphy pen online.

2. Ambitious, Dreamer Carrot

This carrot is an aspiring model who spends her time watching "America's Next Top (Carrot) Model." She loves the earlier seasons, but will still watch the newer stuff, too.

3. Childhood BFF Carrots

Here is a pair of BFF carrots. They are bouncers at the club, and they are not going to let you in. (Sorry, only carrots allowed.)

4. Overprotective Carrot

This carrot is absolutely livid. His son went out with some friends tonight and isn't back yet even though it's after his curfew. This carrot will wait by the door just like this: leaning on the doorframe, legs crossed, disapproving expression.

5. Nervous Carrot

This carrot's name is Stephanie. She's in the middle, and this is her first sleepover. She had a great time, but now it is the morning and she is the first one awake. She has to pee so bad, but she's afraid to move because she might wake her friends up. Stephanie is very considerate. Stephanie contorts her body into this painful position so she doesn't end up wetting herself. We've all been there, Stephanie.

As you can see, every carrot has something going on in his or her life. It's easy to get caught up in your own life because you're busy and have a lot going on, but your personal business doesn't mean that your life is the only life or that other lives pause when your life doesn't overlap with theirs. Although it is easy to ignore others, please try to be conscious of other people. Respect other people. Respect other carrots. Make sure you get a lot of vitamin A.

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.
