Dear Mother Nature,

I am sorry, I know we are REALLY messing up here. I sit here at my desk looking out the window seeing a bright sunny sky while having my AC blasting. It is 85 degrees and it is October... I can tell we have pissed you off, making us suffer through another month of sweating.

I understand that this has been an ongoing issue of ignoring your warning signs, and you are now punishing us, some more than others. We are changing the composition of your master piece and that was never our right. We have made you hotter and for that I am sorry. Sadly, though we didn't realize it right away. Some of us still don't even realize it, and that's just a shame. The facts are here. The charts are made. We see the trend, I promise.

We see the numbers rising, and we see your increased anger. It comes in names like, Harvey, Irma, and Maria. It comes in drastically hot summers and nonexistent winters. I don't know what to say to you, except we will change. Regardless of the politics, those of us who are recognizing your signs are taking action, and we promise to make a change. It might not be easy, and it will take years of work, but I am done pissing you off. I hope the rest of them are too.

I'm sorry for taking you for granted for so long. I have learned my lesson.

Love,

A person trying not to sweat to death

p.s to all the rest of you lets all get it together and make sure this planet doesn't get any hotter. We need to control our greenhouse gases and stop messing with the ozone layer. I can't take the heat anymore or the crazy storms. I just want my four seasons back.

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.
