Stop telling me i'm to old for Halloween, because I AM NOT. I am not going to let people stop me from having fun. Why does everything have to have a age limit on it? When I was younger, people used to always tell me that you will never be too old for anything. But as you grow older people start telling you the opposite.

Who am I hurting if I go Trick or Treating? Why is it a problem if I take one piece of candy from your house, you're most likely going to have so much left over after Halloween that you are going to end up throwing it out anyways.

The stories I have heard about people slamming doors on teenagers or older people trying to Trick or Treat sickness me. The sad part is the candy is not always for the older person, what if it was for a sick kid and you slammed the door in that persons face.

Judging people for having fun, is a dumb form of judgment. No matter how old you are you should still put on a costume and live in the Halloween spirit. Just the act of a little kids seeing an older person in the Halloween spirit is going to make that child so much happier.

Sometimes you need to think before you tell someone that they are to old to do something. You can forever be a child at heart and you should not have shame in doing things that make you happy. I encourage everyone to go out and trick or treat this year without feeling embarrassed about your age.

After all age is just a number. A number should not determine something as simple as dressing up and getting candy. Please don't let your Halloween be ruined by judgmental people.

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.
