6 Reasons Why Millennials Are Better Than Baby Boomers or Gen X

I think that there's been a misunderstanding between the Baby Boomer Generation/ Generation X and Milennials. We are the better generation. Even though we're constantly being called lazy and we're blamed for everything that may go wrong in today's world, we have our head held high because we're still awesome because of all of the following reasons:

1. We can multi-task like crazy.

I'm not sure why people think that if we're doing more than one thing at once, we're not doing anything "appropriately." Excuse me for being smart enough to do more than one thing APPROPRIATELY and for saving time.

2. We have a wonderful acceptance for diversity.

Every millennial that I have bumped in to has a huge acceptance for diversity and even craves it. We just want to be inclusive and make America colorful.

3. We can keep up with modern technology and effectively use it while still admiring the world.

The world is evolving through the use of modern technology and social media. If you're not as updated as a millenial (which I think you should be if you value your job), you're old news. A lot of us are adventurers and remember a time when smartphones didn't exist. We value the outside world and have the perfect balance.

4. We value education.

We love and crave knowledge and want to be the best in our field. School is our top priority and it's constantly on our minds. It's on our minds so much that we stress ourselves out.

5. We love our planet.

We want to take care of it and want more regulations when it comes to the planet. We're constantly trying to correct the pollution that the Baby Boomers and Gen X created.

6. If you can't hear our voices, we'll make them go viral.

If we feel strongly about something, we'll create protests or do something creative to make our voices heard. If no one is listening to us, we'll create a video on social media for it to reach thousands of hearts and minds.



.....So please tell me again how Millenials are the "worst generation."

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.
