Now that school is over, you no longer have to wake up for that 8 a.m. class anymore or worry about having three tests in one day. You get to kick back and relax and put up your feet... maybe. This is about what every college student's basic summer looks like:

1. Upon school being over, you get to catch up on all the sleep you lost from the restless nights at school.


2. Having as many pool and lake days as possible until you are too burnt to enjoy them anymore.




3. Exchanging the college cafeteria and fast food for some much needed home cooking, finally something not so greasy.



4. Getting to see your hometown friends and family after not seeing them most the year.


5. Binge watching a Netflix show... or three.


6. "Attempting" to workout and get in shape. (Hey, at least you tried.)


7. Taking a few classes or an internship to speed up getting a degree so you don't graduate when you are 30.


8. Missing your college friends

9. Taking a vacation and going to the beach.. finally.


10. Working a part-time job to save money for the upcoming school year, then proceeding to spend it on things you don't need.



11. Loathing the lack of sports and missing tailgating/football season.



12. Losing track of time and never knowing what day it is because it's irrelevant during the summer.


13. Occasional weekday bars visits.


14. Waking up from a nap and thinking it's the next day.


15. Your parents hindering you about not hanging out with them.


16. Did I mention missing football season?


17. When bored, going back and forth on your social media apps until you're caught up on everything and constantly refreshing each app, then going to the next one. Repeat the cycle.


18. Wanting to buy things and go places but you have no money.


19. Going out on a pretty day with your friends and their pets.


20. Thinking, "What am I doing with my life", waking up anytime before 9.


21. Doing absolutely nothing whenever possible.

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.
