Open Letter To Youngstown's Bliss Hall And Its Theater Arts

"Don't ever let anyone dim your sparkle."

Open Letter To Youngstown's Bliss Hall And Its Theater Arts

Let's just say the world is confusing. When we are born, we don't get a rule book on how to do things. We don't get a person to tell us every little detail because life is a mystery. To me, a lot of things happen for a reason, either it is to learn or to be a part of a bigger plan for us all.

My last article, I didn't know the background of what was really happening. The answer. Nothing. We are in college, and we are here to learn and to grow as people. So what's really happening in Bliss Hall? Learning, hard work, and dedication.

What's the differences between the art majors: theater, musical theater, music, dancers, photography majors, instrumentalist? Nothing, no one major is better than the other in this building. What you'll see in here from all majors is creativity, beauty, and ambition in every student.

Although there are times where one or the other feels slightly unappreciated, you're not. You're important! What you all can do, that others can't, is make beautiful music, sing a song that can connect with a person in the most magnificent ways, capture love, and memories with just the click of a button, tell a story with just the movement of your body, paint the sunset that someone wants around forever.

We get to help people fall in love, save them from their bad thoughts and help them love who they really are, we get to make someone smile. We get to teach those that don't understand, that love is love is love is love.

Do we feel a lack a support sometimes? Most definitely, but we are needed, all of us and we are wanted in the world. We are here to make a difference, to be human and mess up.

So this is me saying sorry. It's also a thank you because you all taught me a lesson, and learning never stops.

To every major within the building of Bliss Hall, from the basement, to the top floor, hear from me, that I support you, I support what you do, and I support your hard work. I've always been proud of my building and my campus as a whole! Don't ever let anyone dim your sparkle, and keep working hard. This is what you were made to do, so show the world what you got!

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.
