College is a wonderful time filled with learning experiences and friendship. You get to learn things about the world and about yourself. However, there are definitely somethings about college that exhaust us to no end. Over time, every college student gets tired of hearing certain things over and over again.

1. "Your college years are the best years of your life!"

College is a wonderful time in a person's life and I can honestly say that I love being a part of it all. However, I think we are all tired of hearing that 'these years are the best of our lives'. Our independent lives have barely begun, how do you know that these years are going to be the best? College is a fun experience, but I think that most people who say these things forget exactly how college was.

2. "You should go to bed earlier if you are so tired!"

This is also a kicker to those taking a semester of work-filled classes. Listen, I am not staying up to three a.m. working on this essay because I really want to do so. A lot of the time, work just has an awful way of piling up on a student and soon you find yourself buried in an avalanche of essays, tests, and projects. I wish I could go to bed earlier.

3. "Where do you see yourself in the next few years?"

Sometimes I don't know where I am going to be seeing myself in a few hours. What makes you think that I will know where I am going to be exactly in a few years. Let me just get through with this week and then I will get back to you on that.

4. "Should you really be eating that?"

Listen, I just skipped breakfast so I could study for my upcoming Chemistry exam, let me just have this one slice of pizza. I don't think that will kill me today.

5. "You should socialize more!"

Sure! I am just sitting in my dorm room studying for my six tests next week because I don't want to go out and hang out with my friends. I am mentally brain dead, let me just take a quick breather and then we can get back to that issue.

6. "You should have checked the syllabus!"

We all have heard this one at least once in our lives. You know that syllabus you get at the beginning of the year along with the many others from your other classes? HOLD ON TO IT. It is now your class religious text. Now study, learn it, become it. If not, you will be hearing this phrase way too many times over the years.

7. "Can you send me your notes?"

There always seems to be that one person in your class. They don't show up at all and then all of a sudden they become your best friend. You know why? It's because you are the person who goes to every single class and copies down the notes like a boss. Now, these freeloaders want to capitalize off your success. These are definitely people I can live without, thank you very much.

8. "How many cups of coffee have you had today?"

The answer is always not enough.

Trust me.

Never enough.

College can be one of the best times of a person's life, there is no doubt about that. That doesn't mean there are no annoyances along the way.

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.
