5 Issues More Important than Kylie Jenner's 'Pregnancy'

Unless you've been living under a rock, for the past few months everybody has been wondering if Kylie Jenner is pregnant or not. Quite honestly, don't think I go a day without seeing something about it on social media. I love watching the Kardashians just as much as everyone else, but sometimes things involving them get so blown out of proportion for no good reason. Because everybody is so focused on entertainment news, it's easy to forget what's actually happening in our world. Here are 5 current issues that are far more important than Kylie Jenner's "pregnancy":

1. Net Neutrality

Sooo the FCC is pretty much trying to take away our freedom of using the Internet. This could drastically change social media usage for us, and even simply using Google. Doesn't that scare any other millennials or college students?

2. Puerto Rico

It's been months since Hurricane Maria wiped out the Islands and Puerto Rico, yet they're still recovering. It's so bad over there that many areas will still be without power until May and hospitals are now even facing a shortage of IV bags.

3. Global Warming

The number of natural disasters that had taken place in 2017 was insane. And the fact that people still don't think climate change is happening? Even more insane.

4. Gun Control

An ongoing problem for years, gun control needs to be put into effect more than ever now. Every time you hear the news about a massacre, it's worse each time. How much more grieving is it going to take?

5. Women's Healthcare

Trump is trying to get rid of planned parenthood.Excuse me what?

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.
