It's midterm season, and the air is honestly getting really tense.

Midterm season means longer hours in cold libraries, stress eating your life away, and just generally not being as happy as you were in the first month of back-to-college bliss.

Midterms are also a lot of procrastinating, so here's 50 things I'd rather do than study for midterms:

1. Watch all 9 seasons of "The Office."

2. Pretend I'm financially stable enough to purchase a home and spend hours on Zillow.

3. Take a nap.

4. Go to the gym and start training for a half marathon that I'll never actually run.

5. Watch cooking videos on Facebook.

6. Watch puppy videos on Facebook.

7. Stalk my ex boyfriend's mother's cousin's daughter on Facebook.

8. Start looking at that section of Facebook where people sell things and consider buying something I definitely don't need.

9. Go skydiving.

10. Contemplate the idea that microwaves were invented on accident and think about what I could invent on accident.

14. Go to Target and buy things I don't need.

15. Go to Walmart and buy things I don't need.

16. Spend time online shopping for things I definitely don't need.

18. Try every restaurant within 10 miles of me.

19. Join and attend 6 new clubs on campus.

20. Start a new club on campus.

21. Drive to the other end of the country with someone I don't really like that much.

22. Eat 100 chicken nuggets.

23. Make a Pintrest board for my dream wedding.

24. Gather enough dogs to form a dog sled.

25. Ride around in said dog sled.

26. Feed a koala bear.

27. Bungee jump off a cliff.

28. Eat so much food I get a stomach ache and then WebMD why my stomach hurts so bad just so that it can tell me I'm dying.

29. Write a love note to everyone I love because I am dying.

30. Mess up my room and then clean it up.

31. Find a box of old photographs and stare at them for hours.

32. Watch makeup tutorials.

33. Attempt a makeup tutorial.

34. Take another nap.

35. Consider how many tourist photos I'm in the background of.

36. Buy a Nintendo DS just to play Nintendogs.

37. Take a half hour shower to contemplate the meaning of life.

38. Tell someone about how bad I'm procrastinating.

39. See how many gummy bears I can fit in my mouth.

40. Update your social media.

41. Contemplate what I can post on Instagram, and then contemplate about the caption.

42. Read tweets from 2012.

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.

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.
