Fitting everything into your car seems like solving the impossible.

You know it can be done though; it HAS to be. When you finally try to make your plans come together, work is always in the way!

You're excited for all of the days ahead.


You've already made an infinite number of summer plans from beach trips to dinners out and can't wait for them to come into play. This is going to be the best summer yet.

Saying goodbye to all of your friends.


All of these hugs and goodbyes are heartbreaking, especially when some friends are graduating or live too far to see during the summer. How many goodbyes can one college student handle? Not this many.

But saying goodbye to your friends who are going abroad is probably the worst.


You have to suffer through a whole summer without them AND then a whole semester? Is this even possible? It doesn't feel like it is.

You have so many expectations for this summer, but work always gets in the way of them.


When you finally try to make your plans come together, work is always in the way! Then getting time off is another process all for one beach trip to be back together with your friends.

But then you realize how fast time is going by, how is it already summer again?


Wait, it's summer again? You realize how fast time is going by and that you should really start to figure out your future, but your biggest concern right now isn't your career, it's what non dining hall food you're going to cook up for dinner.

This makes you realize that you're a step closer to graduation, which you never want to come.


You start to wonder if it's truly such a bad idea to live at college for the rest of your life because right now that seems like a dream plan.

Receiving final grades from your Professors that aren't what you were hoping for.


You're not sure what you did to deserve this grade; in your eyes, you've been the perfect student, so what went wrong?

Then emailing those Professors and praying they'll bump you up a letter grade..or three.


Were they right? Maybe you deserved this grade or not, but sadly the chance that Professors will make an exception to change your final grade are slim to none.

So your stress level is back to where it has been all school year.


Stress level = Troy Bolton "Scream" video. Troy couldn't have shown us any better what stress is like. From punching lockers to running down halls to screaming in auditoriums, he said it best, "AHHHHH!"

Maybe seeing your home friends and family and will make this OK though.


But being back in your hometown with your home friends and family is such a great feeling. This summer may actually be the best one yet.

You already can't wait to go back to your second home, but are also dreading graduating eventually.

You're already looking forward to moving back in, but you're also wishing time could freeze because graduation is getting too close.

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.

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.
