Sorry, But Valentine's Day Is Not A Holiday

It's just another day in February to me, and that's okay.

Sorry, But Valentine's Day Is Not A Holiday

It's that time of year again when we see the stores changing. The holidays are over. We can see the different type of people in the stores. Who am I talking about? Yes, that's right, I am talking about the single people, and the people in a relationship.

The Christmas decorations are long gone, and it's time to bring out the Valentine's Day decorations. This is how we find out who is single, and who is in a relationship. The men or women in a relationship are scouring the aisles of candy, cards, and flowers deciding what to get that special someone. But let's be honest, we single people must stand together and be thankful that we don't have to worry about our man or women cheating on us, and the stress and anxiety that comes with a relationship.

Don't sit at home and feel miserable because you don't have a date, or you aren't in a relationship. Go and hang out with your single friends and have a movie night and just create memories that you will remember forever. Watch a movie and laugh at the funny parts until soda comes out your nose.

If you get dumped on Valentine's Day, remember it is not your fault. It is the other person's fault because they didn't see how special, you are. If you do get dumped, it gives you the excuse to have as much ice cream as you want, except if your lactose intolerant. Well, it still gives you the excuse to eat all the non-dairy ice cream! If you are the one that got dumped, or the person doing the dumping, remember that you are the strong one. You realized something wasn't right before you married the person.

Valentine's Day is not a holiday. It's just another day in February. For the single people in the world, finding Mr. or Mrs. Right will come when we least expect it.

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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
