Dear America,

In just a matter of a few short days, either history will be made, or the apocalypse will be upon us. Our long, national nightmare will finally be over. With the polls tighter than ever before during this campaign, the future of our country is dependent on our decision and action to get out and make a difference.

All the scandals, late-night talk show bits, Saturday Night Live parodies, outrage over what "he" said, and so-on will be toned down at least. Still, after listening to what both candidates and the media have been feeding us, it is clear that this election truly matters. Our vote can be a decision as important as what we want to do for a living, who we will marry, where we will go to college, what house we should buy, and etc. It really is a big deal.

But what happens when this whole election process is finally over? What comes next? Yes, I know, the inauguration in January, but it seems so scary if things don't turn out the way we hoped. We must embrace ourselves for a whole new era of American politics in the late 2010s, something totally different from the last 8 years.

I assume everyone is anxious and ready to get this election over with. I know I am. On November 8th, we pray and embrace. On November 9th, we will wake up and realize that we are about to live in a whole new America. The "New. S. A." as I should call it. This election is one of the most important in our lifetime, and I hope that we are all ready for the day it is all over.

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.
