So I know we all get our occasional visit from our dear friend, procrastination. In fact, procrastination happens to be our pestering roommate who is always around, steering us to do things we know we shouldn't do, but do anyways. Sometimes procrastination gets the best of us, leaving you with a trail of things you need to get done by, say, right now. We all are subdue to procrastinations evil games and sometimes just don't know how much it hurts us.

Here are a few reasons why you should stop procrastinating:

We Give Up More Of Our Free Time:

We get caught up with insignificant things instead of getting the task at hand done, leaving us to use our last bits of free time in a rush to get all of our things done.

Results In Sloppy Work:

At those moments that we are trying to get stuff done, we forget about the quality of whatever we are doing because we are more focused on getting the task done on time.

Brings Stress:

You find yourself a lot more stressed because in the back of your mind you know that you have things you need to get done and are cramping your time to do it.

So trust me when I say this friends, kick procrastination out and look for motivation. Once you start focusing on your task at hand, you start to realize how much more free time you have, you’ll feel less stressed, and a lot more well rounded. Procrastination helps no one. Stay on top of your responsibilities and good things are sure to come.

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.
