I have never been really big on quotes -- at least, not the type of quotes you see on Pinterest all the time that are super cheesy like, "You can't have a rainbow without a little rain." While it is a very true quote, it just strikes me as something you'd tell a small child, not an adult. I understand that not all people feel that way, but like I said earlier, I've never been really big on quotes. Because I am not a very big quote person, when I find one that I like, it isn't one that I forget easily.

These are the five quotes that have stuck out to me and remained my favorite quotes for quite some time now.

1. "If you think about human nature, our favorite pair of shoes are the ones we bought yesterday, our favorite thing is the newest thing that we have and the thing we've seen the most and for the longest period of time is our reflection in the mirror, so obviously, that's going to be our least favorite thing." -Taylor Swift

This is one of my favorite quotes because it has a lot of truth to it and it stuck out to me because I had not thought about it in the way that it is presented.

2. “When I was a little girl, I used to read fairy tales. In fairy tales you meet Prince Charming and he's everything you ever wanted. In fairy tales the bad guy is very easy to spot. The bad guy is always wearing a black cape so you always know who he is. Then you grow up and you realize that Prince Charming is not as easy to find as you thought. You realize the bad guy is not wearing a black cape and he's not easy to spot; he's really funny, and he makes you laugh and he has perfect hair.” -Taylor Swift

This is one of my favorite quotes for obvious reasons. I was that little girl who was obsessed with fairy tales and happy endings (I still am) but the truth to this has also made it one of my favorites.

3. "I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe / There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me." -John Mayer from "Edge of Desire"

This is from his song called "Edge of Desire," and it is one of my favorite quotes just because it shows how much he loves this person by saying he'll change what he believes in if it means that he can have her, and that is really romantic to me.

4. "My broken veins say that if my heart stops beating / We'll bleed the same way" - Matty Healy from The 1975

I'm really obsessed with this band and this quote has always been one of my favorites. This is from the song "Pressure" by The 1975.

5. "Whenever you feel unloved, unimportant, or insecure, remember to whom you belong." - Ephesians 2:19-22

This is a pretty self explanatory verse, but it's one that is very important to me.

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.

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.
