One Car, Two Car, Red Car, Blue Car

From driving slow to dancing in the car, we all see these drivers on the road.

Seat laid back, music up and windows down — that's the only way to drive in the summer. However, while you're driving your way on the road, there are millions of others who drive their own way. Chances are more than half of these other drivers will get in your way and get on your nerves too. Listed below are the types of drivers I'm sure everyone experiences while driving:

1. The Jack that wants to drive slow in the fast Lane

I can't even begin to describe how irritating this is! I get that sometimes the fast lane is more open sometimes, but it's because people who are in it drive — you guessed it — fast!

2. Jack's cousin who doesn't like to use their blinker (turn signal).

How hard is it to pull the lever and signal whether you're turning or merging to the left or the right? Seriously, using these saves lives. It may not be from an actual wreck, but from a pissed off driver that you probably made slam the brakes to allow for your forced entry into the lane.

3. The dancing driver

Sorry, not sorry, because this is totally me. If there's music playing, chances are I'm dancing. I'm also probably speeding. Sorry, Mom! Thank goodness for cruise control, right?

4. The person using their phone.

It's not just talking on the phone or texting anymore. With the technology we have today, it's very common to see people everywhere looking at Facebook, Twitter or trying out a new filter on Snapchat. In all seriousness, don't do any of this. Value not just your own safety, but value others' as well, and don't use your phone while driving. Pick a radio, Pandora or Spotify station and just stick to that until you are able to change it safely.

5. The mad mama

This is one driver I'm sure everyone can relate to. These drivers are easy to pick out because you see one hand on the wheel and half her body turned toward the back with her mouth open. When my sister and I were young, our mother didn't bother turning around. She just counted to three, and if we weren't acting right by the time she got to three, she brought a wooden spoon out and started flailing it in the back trying to connect it to our legs.

6. The tailgater

To the car riding my butt,

I see you riding right up on me. No I am not going to drive any faster. If anything I'll start driving slower.

7. The grandma driver

Bless their heart, but this is the kind of driver that makes you feel bad when you get mad at them for driving how they do. These drivers have their blinker on for at least five miles before they actually turn. Or if they stop at a red light and they go over the line, they'll be sure to put it in reverse to back up. I always seem to run into the grandma or grandpa driver when I'm already running late.

What kind of drivers do you find on the road? Follow me and leave me a comment on what kind of drivers you find on your commute.

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.

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.
