Senior Year Bucket List: Longwood Style

Senior year is huge, even as a student who has an automatic fifth year. It's the last year with all your freshman friends and the last chance to make those memories before beginning your big-girl job.

I've experienced close to everything at Longwood so far, but there are still a few things on my senior bucket list I'm anxious to try.

1. Drinks at Catbird. 

Catbird is the new(ish) rooftop bar on top of Hotel Weyanoke and I've been anxious to try it out since they opened!

2. Go to the bridge on High Bridge. 

I've walked High Bridge Trail multiple times, but I've never been to the bridge itself. I'd love to get some pictures taken out there this fall.

3. Convocation.

I'm excited to see what my friend makes for me that captures my college experience in addition to kicking off senior year with my friends.

4. Go to some basketball games (or some sporting events in general). 

Just as something fun to do to embrace LU spirit.

5. Live in the moment. 

I have a really bad habit of looking towards the future so much that I often forget to just live in the moment and enjoy what's going on. I want to enjoy my senior year, take in the little things, and enjoy myself.

6. Don't get caught up in the petty drama or negativity. 

There can be so much drama and pettiness going on when you get groups together (particularly groups of girls) for an extended period of time. I want to focus on making this a very positive, enjoyable year.

7. Go apple picking with friends. 

Fall is my absolute favorite season so I'm looking forward to making some fall memories with friends!

While this time is super emotional, I'm beyond excited to start making more memories and experiencing new things.

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.
