Let me start out by saying that no two Dads are alike. They're unique in their own fatherly ways. However, there are certain "Dad-isms" -- like seeing you in a pair of purposely ripped jeans and saying, "Hey, you have a hole in your pants" -- that many of us can recall our Dad using at some point.

If you're like me, and enjoy spending quality time with your father, you may notice his clever quips and Dad-like habits beginning to rub off on you. Here are five signs you're turning into your Dad.

1. Trips to Home Depot are growing more exciting to you, and you're becoming an expert on where the different departments are located.

And if any employee dares to ask if you and your Dad need help, you go full Ron Swanson on them.

2. You're getting quicker with puns and funny comebacks.

Dads are the kings of silly one-liners. "You're hungry? Hi hungry, I'm Dad!"

3. People come to you to get stuff fixed.

All those trips to Home Depot are coming back to haunt you.

4. You're expanding your musical horizons, and you enjoy artists not typically appreciated by people your age.

A little Johnny Cash is refreshing when the radio seems to only be interested in "Stitches" by Shawn Mendes.

5. You wake up earlier on weekends, because you can't be productive if you're sleeping in!

Dads love getting stuff done on the weekends.

In conclusion, Dads rock. The habits they rub off on us make us cooler people, however corny the jokes may be.

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.
