Ah, senior year. You've been preparing for this since your acceptance letter. After semesters and semesters of crazy dorm mates, hard tests, and crazy nights, you're finally ready to move on to bigger and better things. You're in the home stretch! You only have a few classes left and you're absolutely ready to graduate.

Being a senior in college is a monumental time in your life. You're so close to getting out into the great big world. Although senior year is always fun, sometimes it's hard to make it through the last few semesters you have. Senioritis is real. After a while, you get tired of going to class, doing mindless discussion boards and writing research papers.

If you're hitting a wall, here are some tips to get you through it.

1. Your planner is your best friend

Always write down dates for graduation deadlines.

2. Create a bucketlist 

Leaving all your friends behind is hard, the fear of missing out is ever harder. Make sure to create bucket list for all of your senior activities.

3. Make friends with your professors

First, professors have a lot to teach us. Second, recommendations for jobs and graduate studies are so important.

4. Take care of yourself 

Senior can be stressful, so it's important to create good habits for the rest of your life.

5. Enjoy it 

It's your last semester until the real world, enjoy it while you can.

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.

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.
