A Love Letter To Chacos, From A True PNW Girl

Dear Chacos,

I never was a sandals person; the “flop-flip” sound of flip-flops have never appealed to me. I always preferred wearing running shoes or nothing at all! However, my mother always scolded me when I went outside barefoot because I’d be tracking dirt into the house. I self-identify as a child of the sun, with summer being my favorite season. I am as free as a warm breeze, and as careless as waves crashing onto a beach. A true PNW woman of the earth, who constantly had the whitest feet in the world because I always went out adventuring with both socks and shoes on.

All of this changed when I was introduced to Chacos, built to perform in style. The cute designs and secure, adjustable straps! No more “flippity-flop.” I can effortlessly slide my foot into these sandals, with my toes, for the first time ever, getting to experience the beauty of summer months with me. Never before have I been able to spontaneously jump into rivers, hike up steep mountain sides, and have the comfortability and style that Chacos gives me.

A year ago, I bought my first pair of Chaco Z’s and I have never been happier with a shoe purchase yet. Some people prefer to not get the toe loops. I, however, opt for the toe loop as it fills the need of extra security and less dirty rubbing in between my toes.

As for my white feet? Let's just say I wear my Chaco tan with pride! A remembrance of the day I found my feet's best friend for life.

So thank you, Chacos, from the bottom of my feet to the top of my sun-kissed head.


Love always,

Courtney

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.
