Unpacking

Unpacking from a 6 week long break is a daunting task, but one that must be done before classes on Monday begin.

Going to the bookstore

Going to the bookstore during syllabus week is like going to the grocery store in the middle of a snow storm. Grab the essentials and get out as fast as you can.

Trying to find your class

Even though you might think you're a veteran of the campus, a new building always seems to present itself every semester.

Going to the gym

First week of the semester means overcrowded gyms, especially after the new year. Then once you find the building you have to find the room inside the building and that's the hardest part, no doubt.

Trying to go to bed at a reasonable hour

It's hard to go to sleep before 12:00 when you're used to going to bed around 1:00 or 2:00 every night. It's even harder when you're trying to adjust to all of the noises the dorm has to offer.

Wanting to go out but...

Some say syllabus week is the perfect time to experiment and go out every night. I, on the other hand, have never experienced that luxury. Both syllabus weeks I've experienced have come with hours of homework every night.

Having to set an alarm

Sunday means the first time setting an alarm in a very long time for many people, and it's not pleasant. I miss waking up at 10:00 every 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.

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.
