Yes, another Christmas article in the sea of Christmas articles this time of the year. But let's be honest, Christmas is amazing and we can't get enough of it. What else can I not get enough of? "Love Actually." It's not Christmas until I've watched this film at least 10 times. I can't help but think of all the things this movie describes about the holiday season.

1. When you are excited about the holidays and everyone else is indifferent

2. When Christmas morning comes and you make your way downstairs

3. When you finally get time to yourself

4. When someone asks if Christmas is your favorite holiday

5. When the Christmas feast begins and you've been waiting for the food

6. When someone gets you a gift you really like

7. When you realize it's still cuffing season and you are alone

8. When it doesn't always go according to plan

9. When the Christmas cookies run out

10. When the Christmas music comes on the radio

11. When you are single for another holiday season


12. When you ask your friends for cuffing advice

13. When your Christmas decorations go overboard

14. When you figure out the weather is going to drop drastically

15. When someone wants something expensive for Christmas

16. When someone gets you a present you don't like

17. Trying to bundle up to go out in the cold

18. Listening to all of your relatives life advice

19. When you get just a little too into present wrapping

20. When the family leaves and you can finally relax

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.

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.
