My freshman year of college has been interesting, to say the least (I've been advised to not call it a sh*tshow, but that's pretty much what it was). My first year of college was my first time away from home, as is the case for many people, so I experienced a lot of things for the first time. So, what better way to describe one of the best, most insane years of my life than with a stream of GIFs from the sassiest show of the 2000s.

When you decided to start the year off strong and confident.

When you made your first college friend.

When you went to your first party and everyone was drinking but you.

When you made it through the first week.

When you first realized drama didn't actually stop in high school.

When you tried to make yourself look presentable for rush week.

When you had to clean EVERYTHING for the first time. Without help from your mom.

When you got your first college crush.

When you first realized college is more stressful that you could've imagined.

When you had to go back home for a few weekends because it all became too much and you realized how hard it was to not live with your family anymore.

When you got your first bad grade.

When you went on your first spring break trip and immediately regretted all of your decisions.

When you went to your first sorority formal and the whole squad was on point.

When it was the end of the second semester and exams were around the corner and you finally decided that you didn't need to do your hair and makeup every day.

When you realized you had two final exams to study for, three final papers, a final project, and a ridiculously large amount of late work to turn in the last week of school.

When you finally had to accept that you're an adult now. You're living in the real world and it's so hard to get by.

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.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
