'American Horror Story' Has Got Nothing On My Life

Because life is a horror story.

'American Horror Story' Has Got Nothing On My Life
Bloody Disgusting

OK, so we all know "American Horror Story" ended a couple of weeks ago (fortunately because this season sucked), but does it truly ever end? You turn the television off after watching the preview for next weeks episode and sit on the couch and stare at the wall. You realize your life in general is an American horror story.

You wake up at 8 a.m the next day, roll off the bed, fall down the stairs and trip on ice on the way to your class. The wind is going five hundred miles an hour, the snow is smacking you across the face, and you realize you forgot to put shoes on so your toes fall off. Mondays are the best aren't they?

So your Monday comes to an end. You failed two pop quizzes and have to go home to study for tomorrow's organic chemistry test. But you have to make time to go to the gym, right? You take the half-hour bus ride back to your apartment and run inside to change. Today is cardio, but you can't run on an empty stomach. You turn the stove on and make some chicken. You don't have chicken (or any kind of food) so you get ready to cook ramen.

The gym is packed but there's one treadmill left so you rush over and claim it for yourself. The speed goes from 0.5 to 5.0 and your day suddenly isn't so bad after releasing some endorphins. You're running and watching the television in front of you when all of sudden you go headfirst into the floor. Next time, dry your shoes before you start running on a treadmill! Today just isn't your day. You wipe off the sweat on your brow with your red shirt and start walking to your car. Wait. You weren't wearing a red shirt. Oh! You just broke your nose!

After jump-starting your car and re-wrapping your broken nose and toes, you use your hands to pump the gas and make your way to the apartment. Actually, you need some food so you go to the store. So there you are, in aisle five, getting reduced fat milk, when all of a sudden you have the runs and have to go to the bathroom. You do your thing and flush the toilet, only to realize you flushed your credit card down the toilet. Thank goodness you brought chuckle cheese tokens. Hopefully, they accept them here.

"At the end of the day, you know you're just going to have another day tomorrow, so it's important to be as optimistic as possible. Just because something is the end of the world today, doesn't mean it'll be the end of the world tomorrow. And even if it is, it won't matter a couple of years from now." -- A quote by me.

You step out of your car and carry your milk to the apartment and smell a campfire. Your neighbors didn't invite you to their camp-out mid-February? No fair! You march right up to your door to put your milk in the fridge so you can give your neighbors a piece of your mind. You adjust yourself to get the keys out of your pocket, and reach for the doorknob. Except there is no doorknob. That wasn't a campfire. Your house burned down.

You forgot the damn ramen.

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.
