5 Things You Should Do Before You Graduate College

College is amazing! Its a place where you can discover yourself, make new friends as well as do things you would have never thought to do. Now that you are no longer under your parents roof for the next eight months, here are some things you should do before you graduate on to the real world.

1. Go to a party on a school night.

Its literally the best feeling in the world. You will feel as if you are living on the edge. Go ahead and get lit! You don't get to do this all the time. Your future morning self might not thank you but after you graduate, youll be glad you did!

2. Pull an all-nighter on finals week.

Finals week is literally the epitome of Hell. If you do not study your butt off, you can tell your professors you will see them next semester. It is imperative that you do all you can to ensure that you are ready for the final test. A little tip for this all nighter: Coffee and snacks are your best friends.

3. Use and abuse those college I.D. free perks.

Discounts on food, movies and supplies! Best believe you better use those perks! Because when you graduate, they disappear faster than your favorite dessert.

4. Ride the Drunk Bus.

You do not even have to be drunk to ride the drunk bus. It is provided not only for people who have had too much to drink but for people who do not have any transportation to said club. Its even hilarious to watch people make fools of themselves while drunk. I mean you can laugh at them because they aren't going to remember it tomorrow.

5. Join an organization.

Literally there are so many options for which organizations to join for everyone's needs. You can join multiple or even just one organization. Plus, through those organizations or fraternity/sororities, yo gain friendships/bonds that last a lifetime. I joined multiple and have never regretted that decision since.

So whether you are a freshman or a senior, I hope these tips will help you make the most of your undergrad experience!

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.
