Political Science Major Alert
Micheal O' Leavitt Center For Politics

I don't think anyone understands the definition of annoying until you talk to me about politics. I love politics. Big emphasis on love. I live, breathe, and dream politics. It's hard to miss the fact that I am a political science major when I annoyingly bring up politics every 60 seconds.

So here are ten things all political science majors know to be true;

1. You counted down the days until your 18th birthday.

Low-key registering to vote was probably the highlight of my life after 18 years of waiting.

2. You live for political debates.

Who doesn't love a good Friday night debate? Debate night and chill, anyone?

3. Just thinking about this upcoming presidential election makes you cringe.


*Chews Nails*

4. When your friends tell you they aren't voting you get really butt-hurt about it.

If you don't vote, I will most likely have to quit the friendship, because real friends vote during election season.

5. When the presidential campaign makes a stop at your school, IT'S A BIG DEAL!

6. Reading a Supreme Court decision for your American Constitutional Law class is the literal death of you.

*Internally screaming*

7.When it hits you that you have to take POLS Empirical Research to get your degree.

RIP to me. Please pray.

8. When people tell you political science isn't a real science.

Talk to the hand hater, your opinion is irrelevant.

9. You are known to have *accidentally* started beef with other family members because you can never keep your mouth shut when it comes to politics.

If only you had kept your mouth shut...oh well...

10. Although, we may be hard to handle and love to know everything about politics, and most likely will ALWAYS correct you, we promise we are still a sweetheart inside.

Well, I can't promise I'm a sweetheart all the time, but I'm definitely nicer than Donald.

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.
