What to Get This Father's Day
Erin Eaton

My father is a very hard man to shop for. He's into racing cars, running, and his Doberman. He's also one of those people that buys everything that he needs at the time he needs it, so no one else has a chance to buy it for him. I always ask him for ideas for Father's Day, but, like every other dad, he says, "Nothing." So if your dad is like mine and he never gives any hints, here are a some gift ideas for your stubborn father.

If your dad is athletic try some of these small but handy gifts:

1. Running Arm Band


2. Fitbit


My dad really loves his Fitbit Charge HR. For him, it's about tracking his activity and heart rate. Different versions of the Fitbit track different things like: sleep, heart rate, steps taken, miles walked, calories burned, and stairs climbed.

3. Oakley Sunglasses


Be careful with these! They are quite expensive, so don't lose them in the ocean like my dad did!

If your dad is more technologically advanced than you, here are some cool gadgets:

1. Power Cube

The gift that keeps on giving for everyone in the family!

2. AERIX Drones

If your dad has an inner child, here you go!

3. Dancing Water Speakers


4. PlayDate


Wonder what your pets do while you're not at home? Now you can, with a ball that has a built in camera.

For stylish dads:

1. Fossil Watch


2. Cufflinks

3. Yeti LowBall

With this, your dad can make mixed drinks on the rocks with the cup that will keep his drink cold for hours!

There are all types of dads. These are just some ideas. There is something out there for every father on their special day! Amazon and Ebay are great websites to get a great deal for whatever you decide to purchase this Father's Day. Remember that it's the thought and love that counts. Don't worry about its being perfect, because I'm sure he will appreciate it all. He loves you, after all.

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.

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.
