Letter To My Teacher

You are testing me in more ways than one.

Letter To My Teacher

When you were in high school, studying was made easy by a study guide or review sheet. The topics were covered in length and examples were given. You came into the test feeling prepped and ready to make an A. Well when you get to college, those study guides lose their handiness. You get a narrow, boring, and questionable study guide at best. Half of the topics you have not covered yet. Others are ideas that you touched on briefly for two seconds in class one morning. Some are random terms you have never even heard of. You don't feel sure of yourself going into the test. You feel more confused now then you did before you opened the study guide. College is an on going question mark. Seriously, I'm confused for at least 3 hours a day in college. Whether it's about work, or schedules, or personal stuff I need to get done, I'm like a chicken walking around without its' head. It's a pain in the butt and these horrible study guides make it all the worse.

I don't have time to guess what you are trying to get out there. My confidence is tested and my desire to actually come to class and learn is diminished. Why would I sit through a two hour class to not be given a test on what you taught? I mean is it really that hard to send out a useful study guide these days? I feel like it isn't. But I don't know what you do in your free time. It's obviously not creating a review that is actually relevant to what you are teaching me and asking me to know. Maybe you're watching netflix. I'd like to be doing that, but instead I'm killing myself trying to study for your horribly prepared test. Could you please put the stuff you want us to understand and not the stuff that isn't pertinent to what we are doing? I'm tired of opening test booklets to see random terms about plants when I'm trying to understand the anatomy of the cardiovascular system. It's getting annoying. So can you work on that and maybe I can work on my annoyance level with you. Please and Thank You.

*FYI I wrote this to vent and not be rude about my professor, but it has just been one of those days. I need coffee, chocolate, and maybe a kitten to calm me at this point.

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.

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.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words.
