2. To All The Boys I've Loved Before

Giphy

This movie took the internet by storm a couple weeks ago and I have to say, it's become one of my favorite love story on Netflix. Based off of a popular YA book, To All The Boys I've Loved Before is about a teenage girl who is too afraid to talk to her crushes, so she writes them letters. When those letters happen to get accidentally sent out, she's forced to face each of the boys and figure herself out. If you're a sucker for cheesy love, this is the movie for you.

3. Big Mouth

Easily one of the most hilarious animated series I've ever watched, Big Mouth is about what it's like as a confused and awkward pre-teen going through puberty. This show is the closest anybody's ever come to truly expressing the gory details of becoming a teenager with some disgusting but incredibly funny parts added throughout.

4. Black Mirror

Giphy

Buckle up because this show will have you binging until your eyes bleed. Black Mirror is the type of science fiction nobody wants to think about because it's so close to reality that it could actually happen. If you like conspiracy theories or just like things that hurt your brain because you can't understand them, you should give Black Mirror a try.

5. Atypical

Giphy

Atypical follows high school senior, Sam as he tries to find a way to take on the world as a person on the spectrum. This show has something extremely important to say about the capabilities of people on the spectrum, what the world is like for them, and how everybody else needs to improve their knowledge on them. Definitely a must watch for any kind of person.

6. The Fundamentals of Caring

Giphy

This hilarious dark comedy is about a shut-in and his new caregiver as they decide to make a cross-country trip hitting the most ridiculous of landmarks. It appeals to those of you with a darker sense of humor and both the main characters are amazing together. Selena Gomez makes an appearance too, so that's cool.

7. The Kissing Booth

The Kissing Booth is a movie about a girl who falls in love with her best friends brother. Not the strongest plot but honestly really good if you want to watch a super fun, cutsie little love story with a happy ending.

8. Love

Giphy

Love is a show about a young woman who has absolutely none of her shit together (same) and a nerdy young man who's kind of got it together but wants more out of life. They fall in love, sort of, and try to make things work in a way that works for them. A great show if you're looking for something that is extremely real and interesting, but also a hot mess.

9. When We First Met

When We First Met is about a guy who attends his best friend's engagement party and realizes that he really messed up and missed his shot with the bride. He drinks himself into a coma and wakes up in the past with a second chance to get the girl and live happily ever after. Kinda cringe in a good way, this movie is so funny from start to finish, and ends with a twist that makes your heart smile for a reason that is different than you would've thought. Definitely a good movie to watch with anybody.

10. The Ranch

Giphy

The Ranch is a show that I didn't think that I would like at all, until I watched all five seasons in a day and ended up really liking it. It has a couple of the same actors that were in That 70's Show so I'd assumed for some reason that it would be similar to that. I was wrong. This show is about a family of ranchers who struggle to stay afloat as ranching industry goes corporate. Comical at times, and serious at times, this show is filled with valuable lessons and is an accurate depiction of family at its best, and worse.

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.
