12 Reasons To Look Forward To Fall

.

1. Pumpkin Spice Latte Season!

The epitome of fall.

2. Apple Cider.... for those crazies who don't drink Pumpkin Spice.

Bonus points if you drink it in front of the next item on this list!

3. Bonfires galore!

Because nothing smells better than bonfire smoke, nor is there a better setting to tell scary stories and sing with a guitar on an autumn night.

4. College Football

Nothing says fall in the south quite like college football (LET'S GO BLUE!!!)

5. Haunted Houses

If you're lucky, you won't pee yourself. Speaking from experience here.... oops.

6. Carving Pumpkins (and eating pumpkin pie!)

Sometimes you make jack-o-lanterns. Sometimes you make pumpkin seeds. Sometimes you make homemade pumpkin pie. Sometimes you put babies in them for fall photo shoots. The possibilities are truly endless.

7. Halloween (the best holiday of the year)

The more, the merrier. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE loves Halloween. Shy but want to be seen? Dress up for Halloween. Secretly a nerd but don't want anyone know about your love for classic comic books? Dress up for Halloween. Super into special effects makeup? H A L L O W E E N.

8. No More 90 Degree Days (Hopefully)

Which also means that you get to wear cute clothing! Scarves and flannels and boots and hats and a coffee in hand= perfection.

9. Thanksgiving!

Family, football, turkey, yams, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, green bean casserole, cornbread, macaroni and cheese, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, fudge, beer, apple cider, ALL OF THE GOOD FOOD.

10. Black Friday (and the beginning of pre-Christmas jitters!)

When you leave the comfort of your home within hours of being thankful for what you have to go spend money and fight long lines for sales... to get the perfect gifts for the family you left at home.

11. The First Snow

The last breath of fall as winter takes over. A slightly sad moment for some, but the excitement of the winter holidays being RIGHT around the corner!

12. And Lastly....

PLEASE remember to vote in the midterm elections on November 6th! Your vote is valuable and your voice deserves to be heard!

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.
