With January coming to an end, most new year's resolutions have, sadly, been put on the back burner until next year. However, your happiness should be a priority in your life because if your not happy, life isn't enjoyable. Most people try to be more positive, but don't know how to apply the positive mindset. Adding these small, little things into your life can put you one step ahead towards a happy life.

1. Make time for yourself.

Whether it be time to soak in a nice, hot bathtub or binge on the latest Ted Bundy Netflix series, make sure there is time in your day free of stress and responsibility.

2. Eat breakfast!

I used to think by not eating breakfast I was doing myself a favor by saving on the calories, but really not eating breakfast can hinder your mental and physical abilities...And it tastes ~really~ good.

3. Do your ~best~ not to complain.

I get it… At times, life really isn't going your way and letting it out does make you feel better. However, try to cut back on complaining about absolutely everything. It will make YOU a happier person, and people will probably like being around you more, too.

4. Surround yourself with positive people!

Just like how people will more likely enjoy being around you if you are positive, surround yourself with positive people. You will be surprised at how much your outlook will change.

5. Drink lots of water!

I know this is so cliche, but believe me, it does WONDERS. You will feel less sluggish and more awake throughout the whole day.

6. Get your work done as early as possible!

We are in college, almost everyone waits until the last minute to do things. It is amazing how much better you will feel if you get what you need to get done at the beginning of the day and have the rest of the day to do whatever you want:)

7. Listen to music.

Music is definitely my go to no matter what mood I am in! Finding different artists and songs that make you happy is an easy way to add some positive vibes to your day!

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.
