We're a little past the half-way point this quarter and it's been a tough one. It seems like these weeks have been dragging by but, luckily, the quarter is nearly done! We can see the end!

But, of course, it's easier to make it through the next few weeks with a little bit of inspiration. And there's no better source of inspiration for how to get through the next few weeks of the quarter than "The Office." Here are some ways to get through the rest of the quarter as told by "The Office"!

1. Acknowledge and accept that this quarter has been the worst.

The first step toward healing is acceptance. Even though we had high hopes for this quarter in the beginning, we have to accept that it is just the absolute worst. Whether it's due to hard classes, bad professors, or the dreary weather, this quarter has taken a nose dive.

2. Spend some of your free time in study groups.

Even though you've accepted that this quarter is horrible, you still need to put in some effort to make sure your grades and GPA don't tank. Best way to do that? Spend a little extra time studying and in study groups.

3. Lighten things up with some humor.

This quarter is just so hard. *ba dum tss* But seriously, there's nothing like a good laugh to make you feel better. Take a break and turn on a funny movie or watch a comedy special on Netflix. Whatever will make you smile and laugh.

4. De-stress with some cute animals.

Nothing is more relaxing and happy-making than petting and playing with some fluffy, cute animals. If you don't have one of your own, maybe ask a friend who has a pet to let you come over for a while or visit your local animal shelter and give the animals there some love!

5. Treat yourself with some of your favorite food.

Order some pizza, get some takeout, buy some ice cream... whatever comfort food you like the best, get it. Treat yourself. You deserve it!

6. Start daydreaming about Spring Break.

Warm, sunny days, no school-related stress, time to sleep in, and the freedom to just relax and do what you want. Oh my gosh, please, I need this. Dreams of spring break will get me through winter quarter!

7. Let off some stress by dancing.

Whether it's at the club with friends or alone in your room, put on some upbeat music and shake off the stress with some dance moves!

8. Fake it 'til you make it.

Even if you're stressed out and feeling like this quarter is getting the better of you, act like you're rocking it. Attitude is everything and if you're acting like you're doing awesome, chances are things will start getting better. Keep a smile on your face and stay positive!

9. Celebrate the little victories.

Made it out of bed? Celebrate! Turned in that challenging assignment? Woo, celebrate! Another week closer to the end of the quarter? Party! Don't be afraid to celebrate the small victories! You deserve it.

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.

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.
