I'm sure I'm not the only girl who's noticed the scrunchie trend. One day you're seeing a cute scrunchie on a friend's wrist, the next it's on every girl's wrist, hair, in-stores, online — even your grandma's wearing it (literally — scrunchies are retro).

I swear, in a blink of an eye, the trend was everywhere. And I'm not complaining. As a matter of fact, I've converted to the scrunchie lifestyle myself. It's the only form of hair tie I use. I refuse to go back to those ugly black hair ties.

If you haven't converted yet, here are 7 reasons why you need to head to your nearest Walmart and stock up.

    1. NO DAMAGE.

    You hear that, ladies and long-haired gents? No. Damage.

    2. No harsh indents.

    Kind of goes in line with the "no damage" perk, but there's also no harsh indents. You know, the ones you get after having your hair up for an extensive period of time? Yeah, don't worry about that anymore. Scrunchies are indentless!

    3. They're cute and aesthetically pleasing.

    'Nuff said.

    4. They're collectable. 

    I use to never know what to say when people asked me if I collected anything--now I do.

    5. Easier to find than black hair ties.

    How many times have you lost your favorite black hair tie?

    6. Won't break.

    Doesn't it suck when your hairband snaps? These are reliable.

    7. Makes for a cute bracelet.

    OK, come on. Admit it. It looks cute on your wrist, doesn't it?

    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.
