RIP Spring Break, You Will Be Missed

People always hyped up going on a cool spring break trip and I didn't really believe them until I went on one. I don't care if it is the most basic thing to do but going to Mexico for spring break was one of the most fun four days of my life. I could definitely say everyone that went had their most thriving points of their lives while in Mexico. It took a good 48 hours to recover from that trip (mentally and physically) and during that recovery, in my head, I was thinking "there is no way I would ever go back to the insane place." But now that I am back to my normal days of waking up obnoxiously early and sitting in classes that I don't even know what's going on, I would do ANYTHING to be laying on the beach and kissing iguanas again.

My best friends in Boulder were just on their spring break trip and they went to Cabo too. Anytime I saw a picture, snap chat, or text from them my heart broke a little. I WANT TO BE BACK IN MEXICO TOO. Ugh, I was so jealous and died a little every time I saw any picture of someone on the beach. I really thought I would need a break from a Spring Break trip but now being back in normal life I want to go back right now.

I actually miss the sketchy food that we ate at our hotel now that I am back to normal tasting food. I can confidently say I had quesadillas for every single meal and I would do anything for one right now. Throughout the trip, we all had some stomach pains from the food but I would push through the pains if I could go back right now.

With April being one of the most STRESSFUL months of the semester, all I can think about is the no worries, carefree feeling I had the entire break. I didn't worry about one thing the whole four days, I mean how could I? I didn't think about my real life at all. It didn't cross my mind once that I had to actually go back to school, stress, and normal life again. Is it possible to just pack up everything and live in an all inclusive hotel for the rest of your life?

Coming back to the bipolar Colorado weather made me instantly miss being in my bathing suit every single day and getting tan. Maybe I should start a trend and start wearing my bathing suit to class? It was so nice waking up and knowing exactly what the weather was going to be, unlike here you wake up and don't know if it's going to be a blizzard or 80 degrees.

Carrying around my annoying backpack all day filled with stupid educational things makes me miss carrying around my fanny pack filled with only a stick of sunscreen and my sunglasses. UGH, the struggle. Also, I miss being woken up by my screaming friends at 7 in the morning compared to my loud and depressing alarm on my phone.

I will forever question how all of us made it out of spring break alive. For anyone who hasn't gone on a spring break trip, I HIGHLY recommend it. We may have lost our dignities, but we gained some of the best memories. RIP spring break 2017, you will be missed. Have I already started planning next years trip? Of course.

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.
