Go Ahead, Celebrate Yourself!

Celebrate yourself, it's not selfish.

Go Ahead, Celebrate Yourself!
Arizona Quintana

I think one of my many mistakes is not celebrating myself and doing things that I've always wanted to do by myself. If you're like me, you forget that sometimes you need to take time to do something for you. You are always devoting yourself to other people and sometimes forget that you need a rest every once in awhile. Here are some ways to celebrate yourself!

1. Go get some food

I know this is obvious (who doesn't like food?), but go to a nice sit-down restaurant, sit there, and have your favorite meal. Don't be afraid to eat by yourself and enjoy your own company.

2. Bath time

Turn off your phone, run the bath, and get a cute little bath bomb to help your worries flow away. Along with all this, turn on the most relaxing music you have and just enjoy. You deserve it.

3. Buy something

It doesn't have to be expensive, it can be as cheap as $3, but sometimes just buying yourself something can help your mood and help you celebrate yourself because you deserve it.

4. Oooh La La

Now, who doesn't like a dessert? Oohh La La is right. Cheesecake, chocolate chip cookies, brownies, you name it. Grab your favorite dessert and enjoy it with red or white wine or a simple soda. You deserve it, so celebrate yourself and savor into something sweet.

5. Lazy Day

It's okay to be lazy and to do nothing. Being lazy doesn't mean you are lazy, it just means that you are taking time to yourself to celebrate yourself. You deserve to be relaxed! You deserve to be lazy for a day!

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.
