February Has Nothing Going For It

We are all in a February funk...

February is the worst month of the year. Sorry if your birthday is February or you are some weirdo who's favorite holiday is Presidents Day or Valentine's Day, but I am pretty sure everyone is in a February funk right now. It might be the shortest month of the year but it feels unbearably long. February is like the friend you don't invite anywhere but she comes anyway and you just roll your eyes and ignore her. February is like your cousin who you only see on Christmas and your conversation doesn't ever seem to go past elevator talk. So what I am trying to say is that every other month has something going for it except sucky February.

In January, winter break just ended and you are ready to get back to school. You haven't broken your New Years Resolution yet, you're still a fan of the snow, and winter is at its peak.

February, we will get back to you.

March: It's the month of Spring Break. How could you not be excited? Also, Saint Patrick's day is in March and honestly if you don't like wearing green and drinking green rivers and going to the parade and eating potatoes and corn beef and celebrating as my Dad would say, "our Irish heritage and that potato famine that really hurt our ancestors..." Okay, Dad. But anyways... Spring is on the horizon. March is cool. I'm a fan.

April has Easter! The holiday that invented Brunch. I love Brunch. Yum. Also, you are on the home stretch. Second semester is on it's way to a close and you are feeling good. Spring has sprung, you finally get to put away your winter clothes, and it's so pretty outside :)

May: I MAY be biased. Haha. Punny. But May is my birth month. So obviously it's the best month because we get to celebrate me! Also, school is over and summer has started. What could be better than that? Nothing. Nothing is better than summer.

June: Summer is in full swing. That's literally all I need to say. People, every month of summer is a good month.

July: Also summer... Yay! And the Fourth of July! Who doesn't like fireworks? And BBQ's and summer. Wow. Kinda wishing it was July right now...

August: Summer is coming to a close but you are ready at this point. The weather is still fan- f**ing- tastic, and you can't wait to start that next year of college. You have been home for just too long at this point. Also, the beginning of the school year is always the best.

September: Fall is starting, the leaves are changing, and it's only a little chilly :). Omg. You are making the change from summer clothes to fall clothes. It's a nice time. You are still feeling good.

October: Halloween people! Halloween! And it's like completely fall at this point and the leaves are falling, yadda yadda.

November: Thanksgiving is legit. Food is prime, the weather is still pretty okay. Honestly, Thanksgiving is in the running for being my favorite holiday. It's so chill. And Black Friday deals ;) Also, you have a good break from school this month and you are in the final stretch of first semester.

December: CHRISTMAS. Presents. Hanukkah as well. Whatever you celebrate, December is full of the best holidays. If you go to my school you get a full month off and you literally don't have to do anything. No complaints. Keep doing you December.

So if you can't tell by now, February is the goddamn worst but we all are going through it together people. It's only 29 days. Don't worry it will be over soon and your funk will be gone. Before we know it, it will be March and we will all be happy and on Spring Break. :)

Also, I think February is trying to step up their game with this spring weather it's giving us. Good try, Feb. Good try.

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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
