5 Signs You Are Graduating In May

1) People are constantly asking you what your plans are after graduation.

Post college plans are a constant topic of discussion in the final months of your college career. Everyone wants to know what your big plans for after graduation, and half the time you just want to give them an honest "I don't know". You may have some plans in the works, but they always seem to be changing.

2) You spend all your free time scrolling through job postings, applying for said jobs, and updating your resume

Any free time you have, you find yourself looking for jobs. It almost becomes more entertaining that scrolling through social media. But you also find yourself constantly updating your resume and applying for all of these jobs, which is just as stressful as it sounds.

3) You can't wait to be done with school, but also never want it to end

As excited as you are to be done, you also can't believe your college years are almost over. You are super excited for no more homework, but you will also be leaving behind some great friends and even better memories.

4) Seeing other people figuring out their lives stresses you out.

As happy as you are for your friends figuring out what their next step is, it is also extremely stressful. You are just as eager to find your path, and it can diffiult watching everyone else do it while you are fumbling along.

5) You are not entirely sure you are ready for the real world

So long are the days of rolling out of bed and heading to class in sweats. College is a great deal of work, but can also be a very relaxed atmoshpher. So after graduation rolls around, most college students will have to adjust to the much different way of living. We will figure it out eventually, but that doesn't mean we will be ready for it when it happens.

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.
