Boys Bid Day, the day most women throw on their favorite Lilly dress and attempt to drink from 8 am to midnight, taking a frat nap in between. We all look longing at their recruitment wondering why they get low country boils and we have open house. Why they get to hang out and we get to spray each other with hairspray in order to look perfect for new members. Nevertheless, it’s like another Christmas for us girls, as we watch the boys run up the hill as we did a week ago. Here’s what to expect during Boys Bid Day.

Expect to see men taking their pants off for pictures

For some reason in the excitement and hype of getting new pledges, they will drop their pants for pics showing hand painted boxers. Don't be alarmed. Boys will be boys of course.

Instead of bid day bags they get cigars and massive hangovers

The smell of boys bid day can be summed up in the manner of cigar smoke and liquor. All down Greek row you take in the scent of debauchery as you sip your mimosa and pretend to eat a muffin knowing the calories will go straight to your ass if you actually eat said muffin.

FRAT NAP

After day drinking for hours, watching boys run up the hill screaming, and eating lunch; one must take a frat nap. It sobers you up for your next round of drinks and dinner. If you're going to make it to midnight, the frat nap is your friend.

Muffins and Mimosas for the ladies

Boys bid day would not be complete without women dressed up in heels and dresses waiting in anticipation to see what fraternity got the hottest pledges. And while we stand around and look pretty, we are stuffed with mimosas and muffins.

Unfiltered and R rated excitement

You will see men falling, broken doors, broken benches and God knows what else during boys bid day. It's all apart of the 24hr drink-fest that is going on. Just take it in and absorb the crazy chaos that is going on around you. After all, it only comes once a year.

Chanting

It's like our adorable sorority chants but less coherent due to the drunk men attempting to chant them. If you can make out what they are saying, congrats.

All the liquor

Think of what the prohibition area looked like with all the booze in one big hiding place. That is basically the amount of liquor supplied for this joyous holiday. The roaring 20's is alive and well on Greek row.


And as I settle back into my bed, I think about those who will be ridiculously hungover and thankful that the blaring music on Greek row is no longer blasting through my bedroom.

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.
