The Last Part Of The Semester, As Told By Ben Platt

He's just so pure.

The Last Part Of The Semester, As Told By Ben Platt
Just Jared

Ben Platt is a precious gem that nobody deserves.

If you don't know Platt, he is most recently known for playing Evan Hansen in the new hit musical "Dear Evan Hansen."

He's quirky, he's funny and he's insanely talented.

So, who better to describe the final month of the spring semester?

That initial moment when you realize it's April! LDOC is just a few short weeks away! The class that's killing you will soon be over!


...And then the deadlines start coming in. Projects are loaded on. You're drowning in papers. And don't forget those late midterms that professors love to give.

When you start lying to yourself and say that you're going to get everything done the next weekend.

But then, that amazing moment when you actually make it to the library and knock out that five-page paper!

That moment when you sadly look at your grades to try and motivate yourself...

...and you seriously consider dropping out for, like, the 100th time this semester.

When your friends pick you up and remind you that there are only a few days left!

And finally, when it is LDOC at last, and you're looking back at all the deadlines you met. You picked up your grades, you're happy again, and it's t-shirt weather.


Good luck Tar Heels, you're on the home stretch!

And remember, listening to "Dear Evan Hansen" will always put you in a good mood (go check it out if you haven't yet).

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.

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.
