Nobody likes having to commute. Whether it's to school, work or for when you're heading home, having a playlist to accompany you always makes the commute go by faster.

Here are some tips to take into consideration when creating the perfect playlist for your commute.

Pick Music That Will Pump You Up

Giphy

No one wants to listen to sad music on their way to work or school in the morning when they are struggling to stay awake. They want something that will pump them up and wake them up on their way. So whether it's a song you like to sing from the top of your lungs or a pop song that you secretly like, add it to your playlist and I promise you will not regret it.

Mix It Up

Giphy

Sometimes it can be hard to get out of your usual style of music you like to listen to, but it doesn't hurt to give other genres and artists a shot. You'd be surprised what songs and artists become your newfound favorites.

Update It Often

Giphy

The same song that pumped you up last month doesn't have the same energetic feel to it like it used to. Not only that, but you will also be discovering new music, which will lead to a shakeup in this playlist. Make sure to stay organized and clean it out every now and then.

Make Sure It Is Long Enough

Giphy

Whether your commute is five minutes or over an hour, make sure it's long enough for your commute and then some so that way there is some variety to the songs you listen to. No one likes it when there is still ten minutes left in your commute and you have nothing left to listen to.

Don't forget to click shuffle on the playlist as you leave the house and enjoy your commute a little more than what you usually would.

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.
