The new mobile device gaming sensation, Pokemon Go has swept the country ON the streets. You cannot go anywhere without seeing someone on their phone playing it. This game promotes adventure by allowing individuals to use the app's navigational system to catch Pokemon in designated areas. The app is so popular that even the YELP app has a Pokestop location indicator. Even though it is a fun game and motivates a person to go outside, have fun, and exercise, here are some tips you need to keep in mind.


1. Bring your charger or bring an extra battery pack.

-The game uses GPS in order to find Pokemon and capture them. With that being said, it can drain your battery percentage in a matter of minutes, so it is important to have a charger of some sorts on deck.

2. If under the age, make sure your parents allow you to use the app.

-Pokemon Go uses a lot of Data on one's mobile device. Depending on what your plan is, it can increase your monthly bill if not used within reason. If you can, find places that have free wifi and a pokestop all in one.

3. Make sure you are wearing comfortable shoes!

-Especially during the summer time, the weather is hotter and the game requires a good bit of walking and (maybe) running. It is important to wear shoes that are comfortable to walk in for an extended period of time.

4. Make sure to NOT Pokemon Go and Drive.

-Don't text and drive either, it can wait. Be safe at ALL times.

5. To go with #4, ALWAYS remember to look up.

-Safely look both ways when crossing the street and watch where you're going. These are simple rules to remember so that you don't get yourself in an accident of some sorts.

6. Look up the hot spots BEFORE you go to them.

-For those that drive, this is a good way to not waste gas. Join the Pokemon Go pages in your area on Facebook to see where all the prime locations are. (Most likely at beaches, cities, parks, and places with a lot of monuments).

7. It is almost always fun to play with a group or another person.

-This is a good way to make friends or get outside of your house and have some fun. Great and many minds think alike!

8. Do NOT get into arguments with people for what team they're on.

-It's all fun and games.

9. Stay hydrated!

-For the most part, you are outside and moving around, it would make sense.

10. Remember to have fun!

-The competitiveness can get to our head sometimes.

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.

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.
