It's the middle of August and you still have some time before school starts and it feels like you have nothing to do. DO NOT FEAR! Here's a list you might want to check off.

1. Plan a day trip either by yourself or with friends. It can be to eat out, do some shopping or if you're on a budget go to a park just to enjoy the view.

2. You still have time to binge watch the last few episodes or the season of the show you have been watching through the summer.

3. Go outside and get some fresh air. Before you know it you'll be inside in classes all day.

4. Drive around or if you don't have your permit or drivers license. Plan to save and make an appointment to be able to drive before the year is over.

5. You already see signs of fall coming with stores displaying pumpkins and autumn leaves. Think what you are going to be doing for those holidays that will be here before you know it.

6. Do plan to hang out with friends you won't be able to see again until 2 months. You will be glad you did so and won't miss them as much.

7. Finish that summer playlist and always look for new music. Appreciate the big and small artist and their works.

8. Even though your mind loathes the idea of school. You're ready for the year to start. All the new supplies for classes. To see old friends and make new friends.

So don't wait until school actually starts! Go and finish this list before the summer ends!

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.
