An Open Letter to My Sister

Dear Missy,

I know I don't really say it, but I look up to you in so many ways. I know there were a solid couple of years where you just simply didn't like me, and you asked mom to give me back to the hospital when I was born, but I'm glad that at least somewhat changed. I realize more and more as I get older how lucky I am to have you as my older sister.

Thank you for always being there for me, whether it's just to say hi and annoy you, or if it's when I need someone to cry to. I know I can go to you for anything and you'll always be there to listen, and I appreciate it more than I could ever say. Thank you for always being the person I can count on to be on my side. I know you always want the best for me, and won't hesitate to tell me what you think that is.

Thank you for having a better taste in clothes than me, so I can always find something I like when I steal stuff from your room. Thank you for always being there to annoy mom with me (sorry mom, we love you).You're basically my built-in best friend, which, even if you don't want it, you're stuck with me for life. I mean, who else are you going to annoy by randomly walking in their room, to then say nothing, and just leave. I'm so lucky to have you as my older sister, and I'm equally as lucky to be able to be so close to you. Thank you for being my sister, and for also being my best friend.

Love,

your annoying little sister

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.
