The show “Stranger Things” is one of the top series released in July, 2016 in Netflix. Just like most Netflix shows, this one has gained so much love, and its popularity is off the charts! It has also received multiple nominations and great reviews. Even some Google users have voted, and 96% of the voters like this show. However, what about the other, incredibly lonely, 4%? You rarely ever hear of them. Well, you are hearing from one of them right now - me.

I am not saying that I completely hate the show or that I do not recommend it to other people. Nevertheless, I am not a fan of it myself. It could possibly be because I do not usually like science fiction shows or books. It could also be because I get too anxious while watching the show. It could be because I just don’t understand what the second dimension is, or what the animal is and why does it exist? Also, is Eleven from the same dimension? Where does she even come from? There are just so many questions that I need an answer to right away; otherwise, the show just gets too complicated for me.

Besides these unanswered questions, there are some aspects of the plot that just don’t mix. For example, Madmax. What exactly is her purpose in the show? Does she even know anything about the other dimension? Additionally, if the monster is in a second dimension and it's a physical creature, why can it appear in Will’s head or imagination? Therefore, if it can do that, how can it appear inside walls in the regular dimension? I guess fans of the show would answer me with: “It’s science fiction, deal with it”. Still, I don’t feel like everything is very well explained.

One last thing that bothers me from “Stranger Things” is how every adult believes some strange 11 year olds. If something similar were to happen to me, I would be completely insane by now because no one would believe me. That is what the reality is, though. I don't understand why these adults are doing everything that the kids are telling them to do. I guess it might be working for them since they have found out many things, but it makes no sense that they believed them in the first place. In the end, it is just a show, but it might not be for me.

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.
