Here are some ideas!

Secret Santa

This game is so fun! You get a group of friends and with an app you generate who has who and you get your friend a gift and when you guys all meet you guess who has who and you give them your gift.

White elephant

White elephant is a great game if you want to play to win the unexpected. What you do is everyone brings a gift and you give everyone a number 1-10 (lets say there are 10 people) and they are allowed to pick any gift from all the bags and they have to open it up , then the next person goes and they can either steal from them or they can choose another gift bag. It's a lot of fun and so many emotions are going around.

Make gingerbread houses

Making gingerbread houses is a must during the holidays. You and your friends can even have a competition on who is the best and the worst. You can decorate it however you want and also eat it at the end!!!

Make ornaments

This is a great way to give a gift or make something creative to put on your tree every year. You can remember the memories you made every year when putting up the ornaments! Your friends and you can design the ornaments however you would like and be very creative with it.

Bake Christmas treats

Baking is a must also during this time. There are so many different options which include: Christmas brownies, smores, hot chocolate balls, a hot chocolate bar, cookies and so much more.

Watch a movie and drink hot chocolate

You can never go wrong with a movie and hot chocolate especially during the winter. Snuggle up with some fuzzy socks and sip some dipping chocolate and enjoy the night with your friends.

Make ugly sweaters

This is always a fun activity to do with your friends because you have to customize your own shirt and see what other creative minds can do. Not only do you get to do an activity but you get to wear it afterwards too. You can also do a competition with who has the best sweaters.

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.
