Hi girlie!

First of all, I wanted to say that I was really wrong about you. When I first found your Instagram I was really nervous because you were so pretty AND a gymnast?? Full disclosure I assumed you would not be very nice. But wow was I wrong!! You are one of the sweetest girls I’ve ever met! Throughout the year, you have been so kind and I am really glad we were put together.

Throughout the year, I have grown progressively more comfortable relaying all my problems and stories to you. I’m sure there are some days where you are definitely not interested in how slow the person was walking in front of me or the annoying person who wouldn’t stop giving their opinion in class. However, I appreciate it. A lot. It is really nice to be able to vent to an unbiased person and to someone who is on my side. I know that we both have our share of stories so it’s cool to be able to catch up with you each day on the wild or boring days we had.

In addition, I also feel so blessed that we have similar interests and personalities. The amount of times we talk about Jenna Marbles videos and New Girl and our similar levels of introvertedness is incredible. It is so fun to be able to sit and watch YouTube for hours with a roommate who won’t judge me because we are doing the same thing. Plus, we can get excited about milestones AND introduce each other to cool channels! I love texting you about all the gossip and my weird dreams about YouTubers and you don't think it's weird.

Also, I really appreciate you taking care of my plants for me. I am honestly the worst plant mother ever, and you have really helped me keep my plants alive. If it weren’t for you, not only would I not buy plants but they also would not be living. I cannot WAIT to grow the family next year!

Lastly, I want to say how excited I am that you wanted to room with me again next year. There have been a good amount of people that are not interested in rooming with their same roommate again, so for us to be lucky enough to not only want to room together, but also already be excited about designing the room and deciding what will be on our windowsill makes me feel so much more excited to come back to school.

Thank you for being one of my few close friends here at college. I had a hard time deciding to come to college in the first place because I was afraid that I would be really bad at making friends. You made it so easy. I really really appreciate it, and I am so excited to come back and hang out with you next year!!

Your current roommate and froomie,

Molly <33

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.
