My Dogs and I

Who said animals could not be your best friends?

My Dogs and I
Cheniliz Lopez

Rusty was my best friend and will always be my best friend even if he is no longer here with us. Even though he is gone, I still have three other wonderful dogs that are always happy to see me just like he was. Rex is the oldest, then Rio and then baby Rambo is the youngest. Just so you all can now who is who, Rex is a Maltese/poodle mix, Rio is a Yorkshire/terrier mix and finally, Rambo is a Chihuahua/terrier mix. Even though they all have different personalities, they all get along really well and are always playing with one another which warms my heart.

Rusty would always be next to me and when I needed to vent about something, he was there. That was our thing. That was how he would make me feel better about different situations I would have in my life. Whenever I was finished venting, he would rest his head on my leg and just look at me like if he saying “Cheni, it’s okay.” Rusty used to enjoy chasing birds all over the back yard and he looked so funny doing so because it was impossible to catch any of them. Whenever he would do this, it would make me laugh so much until my stomach started hurting.

Just like Rusty would listen to me always, Rex does so as well. He will usually sit next to me on the couch while I am busy doing homework or watching TV. If I get up to do something around the house, he will get up as well and follow me around to make sure I am not leaving him. He is around 15 pounds and although he is not so small, he gets scared of a lot of things. If he hears a strange noise, he will go hide under the table like if it were to protect him and it is so adorable.

Rio is a bit different than Rusty because he usually does not like to sit next to me because he prefers my dad over me. He likes to do his own thing, be on his own and loves to bark. Loves to bark. He also enjoys chewing on everything he can get his mouth on and enjoys going for a quick swim. When I see him swim, I feel so much joy and happiness.

Last but not least, Rambo, the baby of the family. My puppy is the cutest thing ever. He loves to run and chase his two older brothers and enjoys to bite their ears. He also happens to jump and chase after me when I get home after a long day of not being home. Rambo also enjoys to give lots of kisses and likes to be the center of attention whenever he meets new people.

My dogs are one in a million and I would never trade them for anything.

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.

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.
