To My Little Brother At Home,

You may be my little brother, but you became a true friend through all of the years.

I love you.

Although we fought and argued like we were in war sometimes, just know I do miss you. I know you swore you were taking my room, but I know when I come home, my stuff will all be exactly as I left it.

Chill Out.

When mom or dad gives you a hard time, I’m just a call away. I know how irritating it is when you’re just trying to do something, and they simply won’t leave you alone. Know that they only do those things out of their form of love.

Letting Me Love my Pets from Away.

Thanks for taking pictures of my fish for me while I’m away. It seems ridiculous but take good care of her! Thanks for being there to take care of her too.

Thanks for Being You.

Thank you for being the best brother someone could ask for. Thank you for keeping quiet when mom didn’t need to know, and for actually telling me everything.

I have your back no matter what. Thank you for letting me teach you to play the tuba and for doing the musical with me every year that you could. Can I just say, I still think you were fantastic last year.

Don’t Grow Up.

Don’t break my heart and grow up. Enjoy every second of high school and be as involved as you can. I know you’re doing great things, and I know that at the end of high school you’ll do even better. Seeing you get older is so weird because I’m pretty sure you’re still 10 years old.

I can’t wait to see you!

Love,

Your Big Sister

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.
