Birkenstocks have recently come under scrutiny on the Internet for arguably being the "ugliest" shoes, but they really don't understand the true beauty of Birks. Jesus Sandals, Potato Shoes... Whatever you call them, they're the most comfortable shoes around!

1. They go with any outfit

No wonder they're so popular. Regardless if your style is preppy, sporty or hippie— you can always find an outfit to go with your fave shoes.

2. Something about those ergonomically shaped soles...

My arches are happy, my toes are happy, my soles are happy... my soul is happy.

3. Socks or no socks?

Whatever you choose, rock 'em proud.

4. They're practically begging for an Instagram story feature

Birks are trending on and offline, so no wonder they're Insta-worthy paired next to a field of flowers or some Athens blocks.

5. They're not Chacos

Talk about bad tan lines.

6. SO MANY COLORS

I officially can't say that I don't have any shoes to go with my outfits.

7. Vegan? They have options!

Yes, most Birks are made of leather, but they also provide vegan leather and rubber slides!

8. Unisex styles mean you can steal ya man's shoes

Add to your shoe collection without spending more money? Yes please!

9. They last FOREVER

There's a reason why the company's been in business for over 240 years. I bought my first pair in 6th grade and they're still going strong.

10, Functionality over everything

It's so nice to not worry about my feet blistering or rubbing the wrong way when I'm walking around campus. These shoes are legit.

11. They're worn by your fave celebs

Kendall Jenner, the Olsen twins, Vanessa Hudgens... countless famous faces have been caught by paparazzi rockin' their 'stocks. Anyone else loving airport style á la Miranda Kerr??

Happy 'stockin!

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.

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.
