Your Spring Break: As Told By Michael Scott
TheOdysseyonline.com

As usual, spring break typically begins once your last midterm exam is done, and your final midterm essay is handed in. At first, you're confused with all of this new found freedom:

Once you come to your senses, you make your way back to your room, and take your first nap of freedom:

After a few hours, you wake up from your nap, and you know it's time to get ready to party:

You know that you have to wake up early the next day to give yourself enough time to drive home, so you make a deal with yourself that you won't stay out too late so you can wake up at a decent hour. Unfortunately for you, you didn't realize how big the party would be, and you end up staying out until 3 a.m. You're mad at yourself, but mostly because this happens every time you go out:

You wake up the next day at 9 a.m. exhausted, hung over and angry that you slept an hour past your alarm. You realize you don't have enough time to shower now, and you should've packed the car last night before you started drinking:

You grab your suitcase, backpack and laundry bag, and head to the car, where the first year you agreed to drive home has been waiting for 20 minutes already. You open the door, load in your things and hit the road. Luckily, you remembered to make a good car playlist that'll last you the four hours it takes to drive home, and of course, you're ready to sing loudly and bother the hell out of the girl in the passenger seat:

You pass a Dunkin' Doughnuts, thank God. You secretly wish that the first year will pay for your coffee and bacon, egg and cheese sandwich, but when you roll up to the window, you realize that's not going to happen with all of the loud singing you've been doing:

After four hours, you arrive home, and the only thing you want to do is shower and sleep. Of course, your parents have a million questions for you since you basically never call them at school, so you entertain their questions, which goes on for much longer than you expected:

You finally have a chance to escape for a long hot shower without shower shoes and a nap to make up for your lack of sleep last night. When you get up, your parents are making you a home cooked meal, and you couldn't be happier to finally be eating real food:

You go to bed early because you're exhausted, and for those of us who travel during break, your flight leaves obnoxiously early in the morning for no good reason. When you get up the next morning, you're so over tired you start telling stories like this:

You're basically a zombie until you get off the plane at your tropical destination.

For those of us who don't travel, you wake up at noon. You decide to Facebook stalk those who have just made it to their warm weather destinations and wonder how they've already uploaded 100 new pictures:

While others decide to live to the motto of eat, sleep, rave and repeat, you've decided that this spring break you're going to eat, sleep, Netflix and repeat. After all, haven't you had enough alcohol over the past few weeks anyway?

While others choose sleep instead of sun, those who have chosen to travel are confused about the others who are residing in the same area:

With a few drinks in your system, you know you'll start to change your mind about that.

As spring break starts to set in for everyone, your homework starts to rot away, and by the end of break you start to feel a lot like this:

Looks like all of that schooling you had has started to go to shit. As break comes to an end and all of the people who traveled have soaked up all of the sun while consuming outrageous amounts of alcohol, you turn your attention to the work you failed to complete over break:

As you look ahead to that four hour drive back to school, you dread the fake, "I missed you!" and "How was your break?" that will be going around the school like a bad disease:

But once you're back at school, you're surprisingly happy to see everyone,

get back to your life of doing copious amounts of homework during the week and become an alcoholic on the weekends. You will always remember Spring Break 2016 in your heart and in your liver:

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.

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.
