We're coming up on the most wonderful time of year, everyone. The holidays will certainly be looking a bit different for everyone this year, but that doesn't mean that you can't get into the holiday spirit and enjoy all of the wonderful things that Christmas has to offer. This year I've been listening to Christmas music more than years prior, probably in an attempt to escape the stress of finals if I'm being completely honest. But in addition to listening to the old reliable holiday Spotify playlists and designated radio stations, I've been on a mission to find the best Christmas albums fit for any mood I may find myself in. Here are a few of my favorites that never fail to get me into the holiday spirit.

Christmas - Michael Bublé

I'm sure we can all agree that this album is one of the best out there. With so many classic all-time favorites on the tracklist, Michael Bublé truly serenades us and brings the holiday spirit with every song.

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.
