An Open Letter To My People

My people,

I am writing to you guys to say thank you. We've only been friends for a couple of months but you guys have been my biggest supporters and encouragers. You guys have seen the tears and the melt-downs and have been there to pick me back up if I'm laughing it's probably because one of y'all made a joke or I remember something that happened (like someone falling down the stairs). When things have felt like they were crumbling you guys were there to tell me it's gonna be okay, encourage me, hug me and shove food in my mouth.

You guys are the people I couldn't imagine my life without, we haven't been friends super long but we've definitely had some good times the short time we've been friends. You are the ones who I could call at 2:00 a.m. if something was wrong but y'all are also the ones that I can celebrate with when good grades come or good news come. When I have decisions to make whether it be what coffee to order or what kind of fish I want to get or whatever it may be you guys are there to help me with those decisions.

Even though I fight with you guys about what's best all the time I know I should listen to y'all because in some cases you guys really do know best and are helping me out. You guys are the ones I can tell my crazy dreams and life goals to and you won't make fun of me no matter how ridiculous it might be. But you will push me higher and higher and believe in me even when I don't and I'm grateful for that. And theres nothing like jamming out to disney or Les Mis when we know we should be studying. I also wouldn't trade our car jam sessions and late nights talk for the world. And when I get moody or sassy you guys know whether to threaten me with sassy juice or just to leave me alone and let me lay on the floor. I am certain whether you live upstairs or across the world, you'd drop everything and be there if I needed you.

You guys are also are going to be honest whether I want you to be or not, whether it be about that guy I like I shouldn't or when I need to get my life together or if I'm just being plain dumb. You guys are the ones who would tickle me until I pee everywhere or make me laugh until I cry and I know no matter how much I need y'all, y'all need me too. So, a huge thanks to you guys for being my people. I love you guys so much!

You guys are my people, and you always will be my people.

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.
