Area 51 NEEDS to be the new Coachella site

Unless you live under a rock, you witnesses the #stormarea51 Internet movement and all the memes that came along with it this summer. Although some of us thought it was just a joke, people actually showed up to Area 51 and made it a music festival. Should Area 51 be the new Coachella?

Area 51 NEEDS to be the new Coachella site

Last weekend, the Area 51 storm actually took place in Rachel Nevada. If you're a social media user you saw all the Meme Lords tweet and share actual videos of people that showed up to the Facebook event. The Naruto runners made an iconic and memorable moment that was even captured by the news, which according to Twitter was the first meme of this event. Of course, people weren't able to storm Area 51 or even tried to break in since it was highly secured with the military. If there were to be real aliens and evidence, the government was highly prepared for it and people had been warned before.

There were people holding actual signs of "clap them alien cheeks" outside and the military was trying their best to remain professional and perform their job. According to people that attended, it was the weirdest experience. It all began on the Internet because of a meme, and it just shows how social media brings people together. Let's not be so serious for a moment, although we all know it was nothing but a joke... it was pretty iconic. There was a music festival right outside, were people dressed in rave clothing and showed their respect for "green lives matter." The real question is; should Area 51 be the new Coachella?

Let's embrace it, this generation is the coolest generation in history and although we truly care about solving world issues, we are a humorous generation that knows how to share a good laugh. The "raid" wasn't an actual raid, people came along to share the experience among people of similar interest and humor. People were pretty aware of the consequences and the government had made them pretty clear, but to some, it was a life-changing experience. Area 51, should be the new Coachella. It is nothing but a celebration, that some truly believe aliens exist and the share-bonding experience with other Internet users.

The internet has already taken over us, and it continues to change and shape our society. This ever-lasting social media fever is legit. Dating partners are already meeting online, and with a simple friend request or follow is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. It is quite depressing to think about, but the internet has in fact taken over us. This historic moment brought people from all over the country together; just like the music festival of Coachella. It was mostly a target to this generation and Generation Z. Imagine a world with a Coachella truly dedicated to Area 51 and green lives, where everyone peacefully celebrates.

We shall wait until next year, and see how it slowly develops into a bigger event.

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.
