You still go into Hot Topic

Sure you'll tell all your friends you're going ironically but in reality you know that they're having a huge sale right now and you've been eyeing these black skinny jeans for a couple of weeks.

When you hear that one G note on the piano

You break out into all your old gear, including mounds of black eyeliner and sing-scream all the lyrics to Welcome to the Black Parade

The Holy Trinity means something a little bit different to you

Fall Out Boy, Panic! at the Disco, and My Chemical Romance (RIP). 3 of the best bands in the emo world

You may have your hair dyed crazy colors

I definitely don't have green hair right now...

You may have your old piercings or stretched earlobes still.

All kinds of different earrings. Helix, triple helix, double lobe, industrial. The list goes on.

You still want to be in a band or you are in a band.

I wish I had a lick of musical talent because I would form a band with some old friends in a heartbeat. Alas I have I am tone deaf and that's okay.

You still go to Warped Tour

You'll tell everyone it's just because one really cool unknown band is playing and you want support them but in reality you go because it's your emo version of Disney world.

You go to see your favorite bands concert any chance you get.

My first concert was Panic! at the Disco last June, since them I've made an effort to go to more concerts and live music and it was the best decision I've made in a long time.

You told your mom it wasn't a phase and you were right.

Although you may not wear your spiky belt with everything you wear anymore you know deep down if emo fashion came back in style you'd be all for 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.
