Happy sylly week!

New semester, new you, new drinks. Going out to the bars in your college town is sometimes intimidating, there's not a direct menu, you'll see bottles of alcohol lined up from Monarch to Smirnoff and there are so many different flavors. I'm now 22 years old, so I've decided this year I need to stop shotgunning beers in a frat house; I'm evolving, ok? There are so many combinations with vodka, rum, and even whiskey that will taste so good it will get you dancing and maybe even singing some karaoke. I'm no expert, but I've ordered enough gross drinks to know some good ones.

Here are the 14 best drinks to order this syllabus week.

1. Vodka Sour

Vodka, lime juice, and simple syrup, this drink is sweet but also has a sour bite!

2. Jack & Coke

Simple, cheap, good.

3. Vodka Cran

Basic bitch but smart bitch because this is yummy

4. AMF

Adios!!!!! This is so good but will definitely get you blacked out.

5. Long Island Iced Tea

The BEST but has a lot of alcohol so this delicious drink will definitely catch up to you.

6. Vodka Redbull/Rockstar

Tastes so good but will 100% sneak up on you and you will be very drunk.

7. Vodka Soda

A classic. Just ice, vodka, tonic water, and a lime slice. This definitely isn't the tastiest drink on this list but it is great if you're trying to cut out sugary alcohol and extra calories.

8. Malibu Pineapple

Pineapple juice and Malibu rum, this is a tropical treat you don't taste any alcohol in it.

9. Dirty Shirley

All the goodness of a Shirley Temple but with alcohol, they grow up so fast.

10. Sex On The Beach

A fruity concoction made with vodka, peach schnapps, cranberry juice, and orange juice.

11. Tequila Sunrise

Tequila, orange juice, and grenadine syrup, this drink is sure to get you dancin'.

12. Lemon Drop

Perfectly lemony and perfectly sweet.

13. Whiskey Sour

Whiskey, lemon juice, sugar, and sometimes even a dash of egg white. Although at most college bars it's just whiskey, lemon juice, and sugar.

14. Cougarita

Exclusively at The Coug in Pullman, WA. A margarita, Wazzu style.

See y'all this year for some Cougaritas!

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.
