Although 2016 is coming to close very near there is still time to recruit some friends and go on some winter adventures you’ll remember forever.

1. Holiday Lights

Some houses certainly know how to put on a holiday show. They pull out all the stops, hundreds of lights, large inflatable blow ups, and fun displays. Whether you go out with your family or your friends, driving around your town to find the best-decorated house will be a fun time.

2. Ice Skating

Whether you go with friends, family, a loved one, or maybe all of the above ice skating is a great way to go to fill up some of your time. Even if you can’t skate I wouldn’t rule out ice skating from your to-do list. It’s a great way to spend time with people while having fun! Watch out for all those pro little kid ice skaters who zig in and out of traffic doing circles around everyone! Plus, you never fail to have that one pro figure skater on the ice who has no show everyone up, it’s some great entertainment,

3. Play in the Snow

Find your inner kid and relive all your fun winter memories. Gather your friends and family and go out and enjoy the snow. Whether that is building a snowman, having a snowball fight, building a snow fort, or making a snow angel.

4. Go Sledding

Sledding is a great thrill activity to do with anyone. As a kid, finding a huge hill and racing down it with all your friends was a definitely must during winter. However, you are never too old to bring out that old sled and find a nice hill near you!

5. Have a Movie Marathon

Bored at home with nothing to do? I would highly recommend getting yourself a nice cup of hot cocoa, blankets, and hanging out on the couch having a movie marathon. Whether you are in the mood for Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, or some classic Holiday Movie. If you’re wishing to go down the holiday path TV stations like The Hallmark Channel or Freeform play nonstop holiday movies during the holiday season,

6. Make Cookies

With hundreds of recipes online that pretty much all include the same 10 ingredients you could spend days just making cookies. These holiday treats are great to eat and great to make. If you’re looking for a great bonding activity to do in the home with friends or family making cookies is for sure a front runner!

7. Go to New York City

Last, but not least, NYC is a great play to be during the holiday season. With sales in almost every store, magnificent light displays, a large Christmas tree, or ice skating in Rockefeller Center. There are so many things to do in New York City during this time of the year and there will never be a dull moment!

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
