I think that everyone who has ever taken a train on Long Island would agree that a lot of thoughts go through your head throughout your time traveling on the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR). Anyone who considers themselves a frequent rider has at least one absolutely wild Long Island Rail Road story. Here are a few thoughts that usually accompany you on the average ride on the LIRR.

1. I hope I'm not late for my train.

2. Wow, the train is so late.

3. Is this train even coming?

4. What time is the train supposed to get here?

5. Did the MTA cancel my train?


6 Finally! The train is here.

7. If I'm late I'm suing.

8. Yikes, it looks crowded in there.

9. I will kill someone with my bare hands for a seat.


10. Oh no, there are absolutely no seats.

11. I guess I'll just have to sit next to someone.

12. I really don't want to talk to anyone.

13. Do I really want to sit next to someone?

14. Oh well, I guess I'll just stand.

15. Wow, my feet hurt.

16. Um, why are we stopping?

17. Oh no, the train's broken...

18. I'm never getting to Penn Station

19. I hope they don't collect tickets today

20. Conductor: "All tickets please!"

21. Never mind...

22. I wonder if they ever try to punch holes in the tickets like Tom Hanks in "The Polar Express."


23. Why'd the conductor give me my ticket back?

24. Oh no. Do I have to transfer at Jamaica?

25. Help, I have no idea what I'm doing.

26. SOS!


27. Oh wait, I bought a round trip.

28. Wow, I played myself.

29. Are we there yet?

30. Wow, the skyline looks cool.

31. Here comes the tunnel.

32. Ouch, my ears hurt.

33. *Pretends to chew gum*

34. That’s better.

35. Finally, we’re here.

36. I hope the ride home is better.


37. Okay, so when the track number comes up, I’ll make a break for it.

38. I’m ready

39. There it is! Track 19! GO GO GO!


40. I hope I don’t fall down the stairs.

41. Open the train doors already!

42. I got a seat! Now I can relax

43. I hope no one sits next to me.

44. Don’t do it.


45. Ugh, I thought I would have a seat all by myself.

46. Oh well, I’ll just put my headphones in and hope that no one talks to me

47. Please stp talking to me. I have my headphones in.

48. How many stops until Mineola?

49. Did they just say next stop Huntington?

50. I definitely missed my stop.


51. Never mind. False alarm.

52. Gotta get my stuff ready so that I can get out before the doors close.

53. What if I just stayed on and never left?

54. Made it to Mineola! Bye everyone!

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.

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.
