June 21 and 22 held a major milestone in the solo career of musician Harry Styles - two sold out nights at New York City's famous Madison Square Garden. Styles has played this venue before, for the first time in 2012 with boyband One Direction. However, this was his first time to play this arena as a solo artist - and he made sure to make it as unforgettable as possible.

Ahead of the first show, Madison Square Garden posted several pictures to their social media accounts. These included the stage being set up inside the arena, a picture of a billboard showing both shows are sold out, and a giant picture of Harry plastered onto the roof of the building. Dedicated fans from all over the world traveled to NYC to commemorate this milestone, as did Harry's mother, Anne.

Rolling Stone journalist Rob Sheffield attended both shows, and after Night One claimed that Harry is,

"the ultimate fusion of Mick Jagger's yin and Paul McCartney's yang."

I don't know about you, but that is one heck of a compliment.

The show was live-streamed via Periscope by several concert goers, allowing fans all around the world to watch the show (myself included). Harry lit up the room, as per usual, and never missed a chance to comment on how thankful he was to be playing there, stating he would be "willing to play this room anytime you will have me." His energy never faltered and from the moment he appeared on stage, it was evident how excited he was to be there.

Harry's fashion choices were greatly anticipated in the days leading up to the shows, and he did not disappoint. He rocked a custom Gucci suit by Alessandro Michele for night one, which was white with black roses on it, accompanied by a black silk shirt. As always, he looked like a proper rockstar. For night two, Styles wore a custom blue Calvin Klein with pink detailing on the jacket arms. Harry's fashion choices have been a major talking point for several years, causing fangirls to obsess over his choices and music critics comparing him to the most famous rockstars of all time.

For Night Two at the garden, Harry added a special song to the setlist. This was, debatably, the most iconic moment of his time in Manhattan. He brought his opener, Kasey Musgraves, onstage during his encore to sing a beautiful duet of Shania Twain's 'You're Still The One.' This sent his fandom into quite the frenzy, which some (AKA me) have still not recovered from.

Harry has mentioned this song as one his favorites several times throughout his stardom, and fans have been anxiously awaiting the day he would finally cover it.

All in all, Harry's two nights at Madison Square Garden were iconic, sexy, unforgettable, angelic, and all the other good adjectives there are.

Congrats on such an amazing milestone, H.

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.
