I don't know about you guys, but my life revolves around food. Food is where I find my comfort. If I'm happy and in the mood to celebrate, I'll go out to eat. If I'm feeling down, I eat my feelings away. The point is, food is always there for me, no matter how I'm feeling. I LOVE trying new food and finding new places to eat. I believe that you have to step out of your comfort zone in life, and what better way to do that then through eating?

Of course, I have to share my love with the rest of the world, which is why I even have a food page (@halaleatsny on the Gram, follow up.) So alas, as a girl who often finds herself hungry but is also a struggling college student, I have compiled this list of my favorite spots to eat around SBU (in no particular order, of course)!

1. Lemongrass Express

This place is a hidden gem. It's a tiny spot located in a giant plaza, but it's one that you don't wanna miss. If you like drunken noodles, this is the place to go to. If you haven't tried drunken noodles yet, then this is still the place to go to. The food here is BOMB.

2. Slurp Ramen

You can't be a college student and claim to not like ramen. Ramen noodles on a cold, winter day is what love is made of. This place is perfect when you're in the mood for some comfort food. ESPECIALLY when you should be studying for finals. It's in the heart of Port Jeff, and tbh, you really can't miss out.

3. Shake Shack

Do I really need to explain this one? You can really never go wrong with Shake Shack. Even if you aren't too big on meat, they have one of the best vegetarian burgers I've ever tried. It's a classic.

4. Bambu

Okay, so this technically isn't food, but BUBBLE TEA. Words cannot explain my love for bubble tea. And this spot does it reallllly well. So if you're a fanatic like me, or if you're trying it for the first time, drop whatever you're doing and GO HERE.

5. Crazy Beans

This spot really has everything. Whether you're in the mood for breakfast, lunch, or just a quick latte, Crazy Beans is perfect. Their iced coffee drinks are my favorite. And it's located next to Avalon Park. Would highly recommend.

6. Red Tiger Dumpling House

Another one of my faves. If you're in the mood for some top-notch dumplings and lo mein, I'd suggest you check this place out. The food is authentic and so sooo good. Did I mention they also have bubble tea? It's a win-win.

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.

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.
