Spontaneous Road Trips
Quotes Gram

The type of lifestyle I live with being a full time college student and working a part time job, and having free time with my best friends is little to none. This weekend I'm going on a last minute road trip with my best friends, and the coolest thing is we are visiting a church on this trip. My friends have just as a hectic schedule in their own life as I do, that when we have a opportunity to hang out we take advantage of the time together. If any of you were wondering where this road trip is leading us to, we will be making our way to Charlotte, North Carolina. We intend on going to the early service the church offers, then we might do a little shopping and eat lunch at a cute mom and pop restaurant. The time that we will have on this trip will give us the opportunity to catch up on everyone's life at the moment, and feel a little sane in all the stresses of life.

Your question might be why take a road trip, well for one we originally intended to spend the day celebrating one of my best friends birthday and instead she decided she wanted to take a road trip. Again as we try to schedule time for each other, it becomes very hard and one thing my best friend wanted was a whole day to hangout just all of us. I'm sure this trip will be filled of endless and hilarious memories we will remember when we are old and gray.

With every road trip comes the snacks and music and both these things will bring my friends and I closer together. My group of friends like everything from junk food to healthy options for the snacks part of the trip. I don't know about you and your friends but when it comes to the music aspect to road trips, we have got it covered! We got Hannah Montana to High School Musical, young Justin Bieber to Justin Bieber today, today's hits, and 2000's top hits. I'm pretty sure there will be many car jams throughout this trip, and they usually end with us laughing till our stomachs hurts.

A spontaneous road trip gets you out of your comfort zone, and see parts of the world you haven't seen before. We have a whole day to do whatever we won't with no limits, and we choose to spend it with each other. Who knows we might see a sign for a place or attraction and decide to go. Total flexibility! No matter the destination, I know the people I will be surrounded by throughout this trip will give be the best company, many laughs, and a few nervous moments (most likely with the directions).

I highly advise you to take a day to have with your friends or family, and try to not-plan a trip. Let it be spontaneous, don't let time get the best of you because it will show you some of the best things in life. Some people even have a road trip challenge, where you show up to the airport with money to buy a ticket, a bag, and extra money for the trip. That's a spontaneous trip I'd love to take. Where will your next spontaneous trip take you?

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
