I don't know what it is about the holiday season but I always want to plan elaborate dates with a central holiday theme. My boyfriend is already annoyed by how much I have discussed the holiday season and how much I have planned for us to do over winter break. These aren't romantically exclusive so grab your significant other or a group of friends and be prepared to be in the holiday spirit!

Drive around and look at lights

Get in your car, blast some Christmas tunes! A lot of towns have neighborhoods that are dedicated light shows, find one! This a cute, free (excluding gas, sorry) way to spend time with those you love and get to feeling festive!

Bake cookies

I am always in charge of cookie making and I have a super specific process when it comes to cookies. For other more sane people, make a ton of batches of cookies while a Christmas movie or some music is playing in the background. They also make some good gifts, so its a win-win!

Holiday Movie Marathon

Fuzzy blankets, hot chocolate, Frosty the Snowman playing on the tv.... need I say more?

Gift Shopping

Another dual purpose date idea. Get your shopping done and hang out with your boo/pals!

Ice Skating

This one is for the more coordinated of people. Bundle up and wobble around on the ice for a few hours. Most rinks have hot chocolate or some other drinks and snacks so if you start to get tired you can take it easy.

Decorate

I have already had my tree up for about two weeks now, but decorating a tree and your living space with holiday decorations will make you feel more at home and will let you spend some bonding time with your SO.

Volunteer

Tis the season of giving! We love good philanthropic festive date!

Ugly Sweater Thrift Shopping

I am obsessed with ugly holiday sweaters, is that just me?

Attend a holiday event

Party, get together, kickback, whatever you want to do! Holiday functions are so much fun so drag him/her along!

Take holiday pictures together

Maybe even make a holiday card!

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.
