Just A Few Reasons Why I Love Winter So Much.

Winter is my favorite season ever. I love the feeling of having my family around and the happiness that surrounds us. I love sledding and running in the snow and making snowmen. I love snow (not brown or yellow snow) and everything else that comes with winter!

Hot Chocolate

I love curling up on the couch under a fuzzy blanket and drinking hot chocolate. I love the little marshmallows and whipped cream sitting on the top of my favorite pig mug.

Snow

What isn’t awesome about snow! There’s snow ball fights, snow angels, snow men, and snow forts and it’s so pretty and white when it first falls. When snow falls, that means ski season is upon us!!

Ice Hockey

This is the season where I can watch as many hockey games as I want! I can play pick-up games on a frozen pond or just skate around with friends.

Christmas Movies

I love watching Christmas movies, especially National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, and crying over the families being reunited.

Decorations

I love looking at all the lights covering houses in the neighborhoods and a blow up Santa on everyone’s lawns. The Christmas tree hanging with millions of ornaments and stockings hanging over the fireplace.

Christmas Tree

In my family we go to a Christmas tree farm to cut down the tree with the family and our dog. We take a while trying to find the perfect tree and when we finally find it, my dad chops it down and we drag it back to the car.

Food

Throughout the whole month of December, my mom buys us chocolate and an advent calendar. On Christmas day, my mom makes a ham and a bunch of other delicious sides. So basically I eat the best food of my life during this month.

Luckily we still have a few more months left of winter!!

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.
