E News

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." - Dr. Martin Luther King

With the recent headlines across the world that very light seems to be heavily dim. But at times moments occur where that light is projected to the masses. In 2014 popular SNL alum Jimmy Fallon made a game changing move with taking the "Tonight Show" back to its New York roots with the Roots as his accompanying band. This past week Fallon has surpassed 500 episodes with his always entertaining, occasionally uplifting, smash hit show.

Laughter is a universal language with the power to make our world's current reality a bit easier to bear. The following are a few of my favorite moments from the "Tonight Show" that can brighten up anyone's day.

"Evolution of Hip-Hop Dancing."

This skit was from his debut episode, and who better than the Fresh Prince to help him kick it off?


"Wheel of Musical Impressions with Christina Aguilera."

Christina's impression of Britney Spears should be placed in the Smithsonian or have its own star on the Walk of Fame.


"Lip Sync Battle with Emma Stone."

Thanks to Emma's performance alone this skit now has an entire show dedicated solely to this contest with host LL Cool J and Chrissy Teigen.


"Lip Sync Battle with Melissa McCarthy."

Loved that one! Then here's another one. But don't worry there are plenty more to watch!


"Hello w/ Classroom Instruments."

From the look of pure awe on Fallon's face to Adele picking up a toy phone her talent shines so bright throughout this video. It's crazy how effortless this was for her.

"Slow Jam the News with President Obama."

This time next year this country will have a new president *sigh* but his successor won't be able to top this.

"History of Rap 6 with Justin Timberlake."

JT and JFall are the best of friends who both just happen to be incredibly talented. Their history of rap skit has six parts where each installment is somehow better than the previous video. These skits illustrate just a glimpse of their talent and perfect chemistry.

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.
