So, lately, I have been hearing a lot of "I'm stressed" or "I'm tired." Trust me I understand. Between, classes, work, organizations, and those of you who have children I am sure that we all have our fair share of chaos and stress. So when people tell me that they are stressed my answer is to go relax!

But it seems that a lot of people simply just do not know how to do that! Many are worried about money and time. I have created a list of 11 things to help you relax. I am here to tell you what to buy and how to use it. And don't worry, everything is under $15 and you do not need a lot of time to this! Just sit back and relax.

1. Bubble bath

The first step to relaxation is going to a quiet and calm place. What's more relaxing than a warm bubble bath. You can even buy a pack of bath bombs for $1 at the Dollar Tree!

2. Exfoliating glove

Use this glove to help refresh your skin. You'll feel like a brand new person! But don't over exfoliate.

3. Body wash

Use body wash on your glove in order to get the best results. A good way to maintain moisture is to always lather up with bar soap and use body wash as well. Your skin will be super soft!

4. Deep conditioner

After you are done with your bath the next thing is a great deep conditioner. When you have clean and soft hair you feel like a great person. The Dollar Tree has two deep conditioners that I swear by! They are called " Simply Shea" and "Daily Defense" They have great slip for all my natural sistas! Go give them a try.

5. Plastic cap

The plastic cap is, of course, to cover your hair while you're conditioning. If you're anything like me you will just use a plastic grocery bag but these a great as well!

6. Coconut oil

Coconut Oil is the best thing ever! You can use it to cook, in your hair, and on your body. If you use it on your hair remember that it is not a sealant oil it is a moisturizing oil. But in the case of relaxing use this oil your body to keep your skin nice and soft after exfoliating.

7. Candle

A good smelling room can help you relax as well. At the Dollar Tree, they have many different scents all for a dollar of course! They even have candles with different layers with different scents!

8. Headband/shower cap

We are coming up on our face! So in order to keep your freshly conditioned hair out of your face pick up a fleece headband or a shower cap. The headband can also be used while doing makeup.

9. Face mask

Next is our face! Dollar Tree has many different face masks for many different things. Decide which kind you want or grab a few! And when you're done slap some coconut oil on your face to retain the moisture.

10. Gel eye mask

This mask is perfect to sleep in or even if you just want to get rid of some bags under your eyes. Pop it into the freezer for 10 minutes and then keep it on until it's no longer cold anymore. Your face is going to instantly be relaxed!

11. Snacks

Lastly are the snacks! The Dollar Tree has every candy, chip, and drink that you could ever want! So treat yourself and get those Mamba's you've been dying for! Or even some ice cream. Turn on your favorite movie or that show that's been sitting on you DVR for the last three weeks.

These 11 things in this order are how I relax once I start running out of steam! Write down list and stop by your nearest dollar tree after you leave work tomorrow! You won't regret it! Everything on this list can be found at the Dollar Tree. Stay strong and remember not to over work yourself. You need to relax every now and then. So I dare you to go out and try this! Let me know what you think!

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.
