8 Reasons Why I Love Snow
feelgrafix

I am so so so so so so happy that snow has finally arrived. There are so many reasons to love the snow!

1.) It Makes You Feel Peaceful

There is absolutely nothing more peaceful that I can think of than watching snow gently fall. Especially against some nice Christmas lights. ALL THE FEELS.

2.) Snow Days

via GIPHY

Even those who hate winter can't lie: snow days are an absolute positive. I remember all the times a snow day saved me from going to school without my homework done. Even a 2 hour delay is such a blessing!

3.) Perfect Excuse To Stay Inside

via GIPHY

No one will judge you for staying inside for a whole week. Eat a bunch of holiday food, play video games, crash on the couch with a blanket and a nice Christmas movie- relax because that's the only choice you have when the roads are covered in white bliss.

4.) Makes Driving Interesting

via GIPHY

I enjoy driving in the snow, because it gives me a sense of excitement. You never know when you might slide on some ice and get some adrenaline pumped into your bloodstream. Call me crazy, but knowing that it could be dangerous makes driving in the snow so exciting.

5.) Snowball Fights

Ya just can't pass up a good snowball fight. I have so many memories of getting pounded in the face with a huge ice ball. Good times.

6.) Sledding

via GIPHY

I have a really long, hilly driveway, so my friends (even in HS) would always want to come over and go sledding. I also remember the time when my sled was hooked to the back of a snowmobile and I rolled off the sled and almost hit a tree. Life doesn't get any better than having fun times and memories like those.

7.) Hot Chocolate Is A Must

Staying home? Have some hot chocolate. Going to a winter festival? Have some hot chocolate. Stuck going to class? Have some hot chocolate. I mean, it makes everything better. And you can't go through winter without drinking it at least once.

8.) It Creates A Winter Wonderland

via GIPHY

There's just something about some pure, white snow covering everything that makes the world seem like a dream. Whether you walk through a small town, a huge city, or miles and miles of countryside, everything looks great with some snow on top of it.


"He spreads the snow like wool
and scatters the frost like ashes.
He hurls down his hail like pebbles.
Who can withstand his icy blast?
He sends his word and melts them;
he stirs up his breezes, and the waters flow."

-Psalm 147:16-18 (NIV)

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.
