1. Use the Academic Support Center that your college has to offer.

2. GET RID OF DISTRACTIONS like cell phones, television, friends for the moment and whatever else may distract you from doing your work.

3. You do have access to some of your IEP only it is much shorter and broader. When you go to the support center, meet with somebody to discuss what eligibility you can get and use it.

4. Communications with your professors. That is the key to your success at college.

5. Reward yourself after you have done all the assignments that you must do. For example, go for a Sheetz run after you have done the homework.

6. If the college has tutors use them as soon as you get your schedule so that your not waiting to the last minute to get help because it may or may not be too late to do so.

7. ORGANIZE is KEY if you are disorganized than college will be a b****. Buy yourself some nice binders, have your class syllabus in each of them and keep all your papers in them so that you can go to them later and not have to try and find it. You will know exactly where they are.

8. After class ask the professor how you are doing in his and or her class. It is important that you keep yourself in the loop if you are missing anything

9. Make sure that if you are taking medications then you should still keep taking them.

10. TAKE YOUR TIME. It is the best thing you can do when you are in college. Do not try to do things so that you can get them done quickly; take your time so that you can get a good grade on them.

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.

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.
