Even though my family drives me crazy sometimes, I still miss them a lot.

1. I get to be home with my family

Being 63 miles from them makes me appreciate them more and value the time I have with them because I don't get to be around them as much when I'm up at school.

2. No classes to worry about

Ah, the best thing on the list. No school means no classes and no homework for me to stress over. School just stresses me out a lot and yet I want to go into a profession that requires me to go to school for many years.

3. Nothing to do (:

It definitely feels amazing to not have any responsibilities for a while. Because that even adds more stress to the plate and I DO NOT want to start that again.

4. I get to sleep in

Sleep is something I never get during the school year and these 3 weeks gives me the opportunity to actually catch up on my sleep, since I, of all people, really need to.

5. I practically live at the gym

Also, I can catch up on the days I've missed at the gym. If you knew me this past year and over the summer I was always at the gym all morning because it made me feel accomplished and less depressed.

6. I can hang out with my friends

I can finally see my friends more and whenever I want. Which is all I want to do during the school year but never can.

7. Watch all the Christmas movies I want

Ah Christmas, what can I say about Christmas? I love Christmas and Christmas movies, there really isn't any explanation to that.

8. I can stay up as late as I want

No bedtime here! I'm an adult.

9. I can do whatever I want

I'm freeeeeeee. Do you hear me? I'm a free women.

10. Finally I get to sleep in ((:

I mean it's on the list twice so it means it's the most important thing ever.

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.
