Man, those were the days.

I don't know a better way to start this letter than with a simple thank you.

Thank you for every single laugh and every single memory. I can't seem to think of a single memory of my childhood when you were not there.

Thank you for the sleepovers when we said we were gonna pull an all-nighter but fell asleep at 10:30.

Thank you for talking about ugly boys with me.

Thank you for making cup song videos with me.

Thank you for helping me prank call my parents at work when you were over.

Thank you for the impromptu photo shoots in the tree in my backyard.

Thank you for creating dance routines with me to the crazy popular High School Musical hits.

Thank you for taking the most awkward pictures with me (that for some reason are still on our Facebook accounts).

Thank you for being you. Thank you for making me laugh until I couldn't breathe. From sitting right next to each other in elementary school to going our separate ways in middle school, the weekends were always the best because that meant that we got to hang out.

I know we haven't seen each other in over three years and I know we don't even really talk anymore, but remembering all of the over-a-decade of memories that we share will ALWAYS be something to make us both laugh until we cry.

Childhood best friend, you are a huge reason why I am the person I am today. You taught me how to have fun, how to laugh until I got abs, and how to hold my breath underwater until I almost passed out.

But most of all, thank you for being the person that I can always count on. Whether we talked the night before or whether I need you tomorrow, thank you for always being there to talk, laugh, and cry with me.

You are truly fantastic. I will always love you dearly,

your forever best friend.

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.

It was the second time this year after an historic geomagnetic storm in May 2024. Those Northern Lights were visible in Europe and North America, just like this latest rendition.

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.
