Long Time No See

It's easy to forget how much you love something until you get back into it.

Long Time No See


Wow, I feel like I haven't written in a while…I've been going through it. I returned home for a while for the summer just to spend time with my family and friends, spend time in my city and most importantly- hold my dogs.

Writing has become such a release for me, and sometimes I forget it's my job to publish each week. It's just one of those things- once you start getting in a rhythm or routine and then you skip that routine…you feel weird. But I am back, I am fresh, and I am fine!

Sometimes going home is too hard for me…but only because I know I will have to say goodbye soon and then head back to my college town and get back to work and unfortunately my online classes *cries*. But ALSO the wonderful thing about home is knowing that I have two homes: one on the west coast and one in the midwest. I am so thankful that I was able to travel around the United States and spend so much time in these lovely airports (lol). I love being able to go between my different lives; at home I am the college girl home for a while and everyone tries to get a minute with me before I depart again, and then back in my college town, I am the girl who practically never leaves.

The main thing I've learned through this time without my normal routine is self love! Remember to take time for yourself! Remember we can only project the kindness, feelings and energy that we manifest and support our own selves with. We have to know who we are and what were wanting to accomplish. And there is SO much I still want to do, see, and get DONE! This time of the year is weird for me especially- I am heading into my last year of college, and last year of absolute freedom because (hopefully) I will be employed by next Fall!

HEY, I am back.

I'm sorry I've been gone for so long, but I'm back and better than ever!!

Be kind, Be you, Be true.

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.
