I'm young, you're young, we just finished college or we got kicked out into this cold and cruel world known as "Adulthood." I mean, c'mon... It sucks. There's all of this hate-mail you get demanding money, NOBODY smiles at you anymore, and there's always an alarm clock going off somewhere so you can wake up and go to work. What is this nonsense?

Anyways, here's 50 thoughts New Adults have literally every day! (Aka Me. Seriously. This is basically about me, and what my mind thinks about this CRAP!) Also, Liz Lemon is basically my twin, so like... As told by Liz Lemon... or whatever.

1. What do you mean, "insufficient funds"?

2. How long will Wells Fargo let me keep my Student Account?

3. Why does NOBODY offer Student Discounts around here?!

4. Ugh, I'm not feeling good.

5. Oh shit... What if I get sick?

6. What if it's something serious?

7. Will my insurance cover this?

8. Do I even still HAVE insurance?!

9. Mom will know...

10. What do you MEAN, "insufficient funds"?!

11. How am I even supposed to cook this?

12. Is the utility bill technically late after the due date... or the cut-off date?

13. Wow, it's really dark in here.

14. WOW, that late fee was just uncalled for.

15. Crap! The Netflix free-trial expired!

16. I should really go grocery shopping.

17. How do I even grocery shop?

18. Oooooh, okay, yeah, this is complicated. Can't I just microwave it?

19. ... Mom will know.

20. I'm very positive I haven't mopped this floor since I moved in?

21. Does Papa Johns have a member-loyalty program?

22. WOOOOOOO PAYDAYYYYYYYYY

23. Dammit...

24. Oooooo, TJMaxx has new seasonal items!!!

25. DAMMIT!

26. Gas light... That means I got about 20 miles.

27. "Heeeeeey mom... Yeah, I'm gonna need a favour... "

28. Okay, but like... I seriously need to mop that floor.

29. I don't think my car should smoke like that?

30. Mom's GOT to know...

31. Student Discount?!

32. WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY "insufficient funds"?!

33. Three months... Wells Fargo let me keep my account for 3 months. Great.

34. What is an "over draft" fee and why is it so damn expensive?!

35. "MOM... what does this mean?!"

36. I need a better job, I never have money!

37. Ooooo look a sale!

38. ... DAMMITTTTT!

39. Okay, I'm buying a damn Swiffer and mopping that floor!

40. ... What am I supposed to do with all of these w-2s?

41. "Yeah, is mom there?"

42. Why won't my lights come o... #$%^@&

43: Dammit, I'm running out of emails for Netflix.

44: How does this floor keep getting so dirty?!

45: "What, no I haven't been sneaking over while you're at work to do laundry!!!"

46: That reminds me, I need to sneak over to mom's and do laundry.

47: I wonder if that Chinese place has a Groupon?

48. I bet I could talk mom out of a few real-people groceries.

49. Oh thank the sweet baby Jesus, pay day!

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.
