They have no idea what they're doing either.

Why You Need To Have Those Embarrassing Talks With Your Girlfriends
NBC News

We need to stop thinking that things only happen to us. Everyone gets embarrassed, everyone says dumb thing to the boy or girl you like, everyone drinks too much at least once in their life, and everyone has embarrassing questions that they are absolutely terrified to ask about because what if you get the response, “no, that never happened to me”. Tragic right? Wrong. That will never happen.

This is exactly why you need your girlfriends. The amount of girls nights filled with stories about boys, girls, family, stupid fights with friends, eating vast amounts of food, literally every topic you could imagine is uncountable. Who else are you supposed to go to when the boy you like is a bad kisser, or that date you went on was atrocious, or you have a question that you’re just a little too embarrassed to ask your mom about – you go to your girlfriends.

Some of the best nights have been gathered around with my girlfriends talking about absolutely everything and absolutely nothing. Just conversations jumping from one to another without any rhyme or reason beyond just “I don’t know. I wanted to talk about it”. These are the conversations that need to be had, not for your own sanity, but for everyone’s.

People are often too rigid about what they discuss because they’re embarrassed that no one can relate to them or they sound ridiculous. And, as I’ve stated before, that never happens. Someone will always out-stupid you, out-ridiculous you, out-everything you. That’s the beauty of having these kinds of conversations, you only learn more about yourself and your best friends while being more comfortable with who you are and all of the ridiculousness that comes with you.

Be proud of your crazy and share what you got.

Kim K gets it.

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.

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.
