Don't ever wish your life away.

Letter To The High School Girl Who Thinks She Has It All Figured Out
Callie Futey

Dear my darling,

That boy you claimed to love with all of your heart, you know the one. He was the one that made your heart race at the sound of his name. I know you’ve dreamed that he would be the one you stayed and cherished memories with.

I’m aware that you spent every waking moment with him also. I’m also aware that you’re broken hearted feeling like nothing and nobody can “fix” you. Then there was that friend that talked the most about you, but had the brightest smile and was ready to talk you up when you walked by.

Well, let me tell you this: that boy, the one you swear was perfect isn’t perfect if he could let a gem like you go. I know you believed in him like he was a fairly tale and I know it’s hard to get over him as well. Yes, there are going to be days when you feel like dying but the one thing you have to remember is when you were stuck listening to his lies.

You may feel alone because you dropped that unsupportive friend but you just have to know that it was for the best and I promise you’ll notice who would really stick by you no matter what. Sometimes people are meant to stay in our lives, but instead some are meant to only take a little ride to show us what and who we deserve.

You’re going to go through a tough time but in the midst of it, just realize that it’s all worth it. You’ll be glad you found yourself and clarified your morals. You’re going to wish someday that you had taken that chance or went to that one place that people begged you to go, but those are called regrets and I’m begging you not to have anymore of them.

Please don’t ever wish your life away no matter how badly you want high school to end. High school is just a practice round and you’ll realize in college that what you do matters, whether it’s breaking you or making you, so enjoy being free of the real world’s dictation at the moment.

You may feel as if you have everything all figured out but I promise you that life will flip you upside down and when that happens, pray that you surrounded yourself with the right people and you’ll be okay

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.
