Here are some happy tunes to help combat your blues.

1. Bubbly By: Colbie Caillat

This songs just makes me smile and it gives off some nostalgic vibes.

2. 10,000 Hours By: Dan + Shay (with Justin Bieber)

Even though country music and Justin Bieber don't seem to run together often, this song shows that it actually works!

3. I'm Yours By: Jason Mraz

This song, much like "Bubbly", gives off very nostalgic vibes for me. The scat parts are what really make me smile/laugh.

4. On Top Of The World By: Imagine Dragons

Considering the recurring mantra is, "I'm on top of the world", this song just radiates positive vibes.

5. I Lived By: OneRepublic

When reading the lyrics, some verses don't seem very positive, but the overarching lesson is to have a positive outlook in all circumstances.

6. Can't Stop the Feeling By: Justin Timberlake

Just by watching the dance moves in the video, I start smiling.

7. Hey, Soul Sister By: Train

I was OBSESSED with this song back in 1st grade when MTV actually played music! So, AGAIN, nostalgia plays a big part in this song making the list.

8. Classic By: MKTO

STRONG middle school dance vibes right here. I can still sing this song WORD for WORD.

9. Don't Worry, Be Happy By: Bob Marley (written by Bobby McFerrin)

Just reading the title, it is pretty obvious that this is a happy song.

10. Good Time By: Owl City and Carly Rae Jepsen

To put it simply, when you are having a "good time", you're probably happy.

11. Walking on Sunshine By: Katrina and The Waves

This song just radiates positive energy inside and out.

12. Best Day of My Life By: American Authors

Quite an odd music video, but still a very happy song.

13. Footloose By: Kenny Loggins

I learned every word to this song for a middle school concert... just try me. Personally, it is near impossible to hear this song without dancing some way.

14. Celebration By: Kool & the Gang

This song perfectly expresses how I am going to feel after social gatherings are acceptable again.

15. September By: Earth, Wind & Fire

I low-key have the instrumental part memorized because of high school band.

16. Happy By: Pharrell Williams

1. Obviously, this song had to make the list... It's literally called "happy".

2. I know the harmony to this because of high school choir. (I'm an alto)

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.
