My Spring Break Staycation
Sodexo

This past week was spring break on the Winona State Campus. Some students went home, and others went on vacations. Although I would have loved to do both of these, I got the pleasure of staying in Winona to continue my placement and work every single day. Now I am not complaining, The things I got to do while here were actually a lot of fun.

1. I ate cheesecake

Recently HyVee got Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake in their bakery. My roommate and I got a mini one and ate almost all of it. It is amazingly delicious. You need this in your life.

2. I woke up at 6am EVERY SINGLE DAY

Yes, this is a tad exaggerated. It was only seven of the eleven days but still. This was to much.

3. I watched an entire season of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

Recently my roommate made me watch this. I couldn't stop. After tonight it will be two seasons.

4. I did homework

NO ONE does homework over spring break. But I did it.

5. I cooked actual meals. Not just popcorn.

With the little free time I had I found the motivation to cook actual meals. I made brats, veggies, and baked potatoes. It was fantastic.

6. I worked

I know, I said I would exclude this, but my job is amazing and it was a great way to spend my time. I work for Home and Community Options. My clients are great. My coworkers are great. This job rocks

7. I took a nap

It is shocking that this was able to happen.

8. I went to my practicum

My SPED practicum is every morning for three hours at a fantastic school near Winona. I love my kids and I love my cooperating teach.

9. I procrastinated my laundry

Yes, I know. This is a horrible one. But I am running out of things because my life isn't that exciting. Give me a break

10. I watched the walls

Refer to number 9 for why this is on the list.

11. I waited for school to start again

I love having time off, but I am ready to graduate. I am so excited for this break to end and for school to start again.

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.
