As a prospective teacher, your wishlist never stops growing. All year long, you see things that could look so cute in your future classroom or help you stay organized in your future classroom. The time has finally come when you can share your wishlist with friends and family and hope for the best. If you're a future teacher, you need these 12 things on your wishlist ASAP.

1. A pretty, new set of pens.

So you can color code EVERYTHING, you know, the way it should be.

2. An agenda for the new year.

Your current one is probably beat up, so a fresh one will get you so excited.

3. A funny teacher wine glass.

One of the cutest items on your wish list, a wine glass like this is a must.

4. A cute coffee mug.

While a wine glass is adorable and necessary, it's also important to have something to hold your coffee for those work appropriate beverages,

5. Signs for your future classroom.

To spice up the place, or to make your desk more personal. Either way, these signs are a hit among teachers and make a great gift.

6. A teacher tote bag.

Tote bags are a necessity to carry everything to and from school. Bonus points if it's monogrammed or personalized!

7. Ornaments. 

https://www.amazon.com/Teacher-Crayon-Ornament-Kurt-Adler/dp/B00LLPLOF8/ref=sr_1_19?ie=UTF8&qid=1544670654&sr=8-19&keywords=teacher+christmas+gifts

It's never too early to start filling your tree with teacher ornaments.

8. Clothing to add to your teaching attire wardrobe. 

If you're not officially a teacher yet, start stocking up on the basics when holiday sales are happening! Think business casual pants, cute sweaters, and more that you can ask for!

9. Teacher t-shirts. 

https://www.amazon.com/DUTUT-Coordinator-Tshirt-Teacher-T-Shirt/dp/B07F5FZ2JJ/ref=sr_1_30_sspa?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1544671019&sr=1-30-spons&nodeID=7141123011&psd=1&keywords=teacher+tshirts&psc=1

Especially if you'll be teaching elementary school...these are too fitting!

10. Candles. 

https://www.amazon.com/Best-Teacher-Candle-Natural-Handmade/dp/B07KTC68LV/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1544671168&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=teacher+candles&psc=1

Teachers love candles, so this is a fool proof gift that can do no wrong.

11. Insulated tumblers. 

https://www.amazon.com/Burton-Tumbler-Teacher-Whats-Superpower/dp/B07822HJS3/ref=sr_1_8?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1544671247&sr=1-8&keywords=teacher+tumbler

Teachers can never have too many caffeine holders, am I right?

12. Art supplies. 

Freshly sharpened color pencils or a variety pack of markers will do the trick.

The teacher or future teacher in your life would be thrilled to receive any of these gifts! After all, they've been compiling a wish list all year long!

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
