Needed in sooooo many ways

Why We Need Vacations
waikdvrlistscom

1. Even if its been just a few weeks or months, it feels like years!

Whether you just got back home from being on a vacation or that its been several months since you've taken a relaxing break, it feels like its been a forever when you finally go on one.

2. Why we need vacations.

Work, school, life in general is stressful. Taking a well deserved break from a hectic life is healthy, revitalizing and keeps you from losing your mind. (If you haven't already lost it from everyday stress). It is good to get out and go camping or spend the night on a beach somewhere, as long as your having a good time it doesn't matter where it is or how much it cost.

3. Who needs some time off?

Everyone better be raising their hand! Unless you just got back from holiday, you need a vacation. If you say I can't go on vacation I'm too busy, make time to live life and go out and do something to add a little fun to your life. If you keep saying I DON'T HAVE TIME then you need vacation more than the rest of us. It doesn't have to be uber expensive or so amazing that its classified as a once in the lifetime vacation. It just needs to have realization and fun and that is a successful vacation.

4. How do you know when you take off too much time?

People may say you take off too much time from work, but do you actually take off too much. When work life becomes affected by not getting enough hours, then yes, you've had just a few too many breaks. When school work is not being completed and you skip many classes to take a "break". Changes are that break is a lot longer than you thought it was. But when you are groggy, moody, cranky, or down right unbearable then you my friend need a vacation.

5. Does every vacation have to be a huge, memorable family event?

The whole family doesn't have to go, there's nothing wrong with wanting some time to yourself. Just don't get caught trying to escape the home! After you come back from your extended trip to the grocery store or an unplanned meet up with a friend, that's when you plan a scheduled vacation with the whole family. It doesn't have to be expensive and extravagant. They can be simple yet classic. Big trips don't have to cost a fortune, being with your family is memorable enough the trip is just an added bonus.

You know it was a great holiday, when you don't want to leave and come back to reality, if possible do the same vacation again, later on, if it was that once in a lifetime trip, do something else enjoyable and just relax for a bit.

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.

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.
