The 5 Things You'll Find In Heaven

Ever wonder where all those lost ChapSticks go?

The 5 Things You'll Find In Heaven
Wikipedia

Mitch Albom broke into the literary scene with his big hit, "The Five People You'll Meet in Heaven." Well, I got to thinking of the five things we'd find in heaven. There are a handful of items that always seem to find a way of going missing. No matter how many times you run to the store to replace them, they will eventually -- and very quickly-- disappear. Here are the Five Things You'll Find in Heaven.

1. ChapStick

I have yet to meet a person who has successfully used up a tube of ChapStick before losing it. If you have, I would personally like to congratulate you and shake your hand. On average, we tend to lose a ChapStick after a couple of months. Unfortunately, they tend to go missing in the winter months when living a ChapStick-less life is extremely painful.


2. Bobby pins

Whether you're a guy or a girl, chances are you find bobby pins extremely annoying. If you're a girl, it's because you're always losing them. If you're a guy, it's because you're likely finding them scattered all over the place. A pack of 24 brand spanking new bobby pins can vanish in a matter of days. Beyond the pearly gates, I expect to see mountains and mountains of bobby pins, glistening in brown and black glossy hues.


3. New school supplies

The beginning of every school year is marked by a trip to Staples, Target or the like. Carts are filled with highlighters, pens, folders, pencils, Post-Its... Check back in three months, everything is gone. We're borrowing pencils (that we conveniently forget to return) and writing notes on the back of the syllabus (that we miraculous still have). Where do they all go? My guess? Heaven. Where everywhere you turn is a fully stocked aisle of school supplies.


4. Pen caps

On a similar note, if you are lucky enough to have not lost your pen, chances are you at least will have lost its cap. Those suckers get decapitated left and right. The time frame of pen decapitation varies, but by the end of the school year, you'll be grateful to have a pen with ink in it, regardless of its uncapped nature. Fret not, though. One day you will behold a beautiful image: mounds and mounds of pen caps. In my mind, they are a brilliant Bic blue.

*Side note: as the image suggests, it's likely Heaven holds all of the headphones you've ever purchased.


5. Keys & locks


We all have that bike lock without a key, or maybe you have the key but the lock is nowhere to be found. Chances are you have a least one random set of keys that you have absolutely no idea what they go to. Or how about all of those combination locks that we bought in middle school or high school, only to realize we never needed them? They're somewhere. And by somewhere, I mean Heaven.

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.

Power of Love Letters

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.
