I know it's hard.

To The Girl Who Feels Like Everything Is Going Wrong
Adriana Gil

I'm sure it feels like you have everything coming down on you and you can barely catch a break. I'm sure that you wouldn't want anything more than to just give up. But you can't.

Just because everything around you seems to be crumbling, doesn't mean you should crumble too. It might feel like you are, but you can't let it defeat you.

Times will get hard and you will feel like you're alone. Even if you have an army of people behind you or not, you might still feel alone. It's not the ideal situation, but it's also not terrible. Sometimes you need to be alone and feel alone, to accomplish something. To get to the bottom of things. To figure out what's going on so badly, that you're helpless. Sometimes in the moments of weakness, is when you find the true answers to your problems.

You can't be afraid of being alone. You can't be afraid of change or be afraid of things going wrong. Things have to go wrong sometimes and that's that. If you wanted everything to be right in the world, you'd go mad. What you can do, is help the cause to become a better world. To become a better you.

Treat yourself as if you are a world in this universe. Would you try everything possible to help better it, or would you abandon it? Such a pretty world go to waste? Or to build it into something better? I'd hope you pick to build and help it because that's what everyone truly needs. Everyone needs to build their own world and help others build theirs. Though the foundation of you is built by itself. What do YOU want? What do YOU need? What do YOU aspire to be?

Sometimes, being alone is what answers all those questions.

When everything around you seems to be falling apart, think of what you can do better it. Think of how you can grow from those things and create a better world. This is the time to strengthen yourself, so do that. Make yourself stronger. Even if it's a failure at a time.

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.
