It's Just One Bad Day

Today was a bad day for me, but at least it's over.

It's Just One Bad Day
Johnathan Nightingale

Today has just not been going my way. First I get an email from the company delivering my package that I have long awaited to see. The problem started when they said that no package was in my mailbox, I mean the email I received said it arrived at around 10:40 am, but I could see that they were putting packages in the places they were supposed to be since they just opened. So I decided to wait for an hour and a half, about 1:30 pm to be exact. Went to check again and still no package, not to mention I was told that unless I received an email from the mail center then that means there's no package here for me. The company that delivers it sent me an email --but I guess that doesn't count--. Well, anyways I walked outside dejected a little, thinking to myself that I guess I would ride the shuttle back to my dorm. As I proceed to open the door, I see the shuttle drive right pass the stop since no one was at it.--Darn isn't that something tragic to follow up with--. From there I decided to forget about the shuttle since it would be at least 15-20 minutes before it came around again, I decided to walk all the way to the opposite end campus to my dorm. As I walk into my room hoping to just take a little nap so that I could feel a little refresh, life or should I say my roommate is playing his game with the volume up high as well as talking into his mic at full force. I tried to nap but today just wasn't my day.

About an hour later I decided to give up on the nap that I so badly needed and walk with two of my friends to the library and just do some of my classwork. It actually went well. So we hit up the cafe around 6 o'clock, but the choice in food today were just so unfulfilling that I actually got sick of eating. Get back to my room to see my roommate and my third roommate--his girlfriend-- who stays in the room all the time all day and all night. But what can I say it's just one bad day. Everyone has a bad day every now and then, it's nothing to get to down by, we know that better times are always around the corner. Can't let one bad day ruin all the other days.

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.
