People Who Are Most Likely Terrible Drivers

It is the fifth week of the fall semester and already I have witnessed several people who are definitely bad drivers.

People Who Are Most Likely Terrible Drivers

People who do any of these are terrible drivers:

1. People on their phones. 

I have no problems with people who are walking on their phones, whether it be because they are changing the song on Spotify or texting; however, some people cannot walk at the same time. They swerve everywhere, walk in the bike lane, walk slower than the flow of traffic, and run into people. If you really need to be on your phone in that exact moment, pull over. Walk to your class quicker so you have time to do whatever you need to do. Literally, do anything except get in other peoples way.

2. People who walk against the flow of traffic. 

Be polite, stay on the right. Its a concept that most people are great at, but a solid few seem to be oblivious to the natural flow of traffic. If you have to constantly move between people in order to not be plowed into, maybe you should move to the other side. It annoys everyone and makes traffic go slower.

3. People who walk slow. 

Maybe it's because I'm from Texas and we constantly speed everywhere, but a person can get on every one of my nerves when they walk slow (except if they have an injury or disability, if that's you keep doing great things). Walk like you have a purpose in life. I have places to be and classes to conquer, so if you choose to imitate a snail while you travel, kindly move to the side and not walk in the middle of the walkway.

4. People who walk in the bike lane.

The bike lane is there for a reason: to make it easier for bikers to bike and make it safer for people to walk. When you are walking in the bike lane, you create a dangerous situation for you and the bikers. Some bikers will swerve around you, but others will run right into you. Either way, onlookers show zero sympathy for you. Pay attention to where you are walking. Don't walk in the bike lane, and if you have to walk in it, then look both ways before you cross.

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.
