Dear Lauren Jauregui,

After reading your letter, I knew I had to express how much it touched me. Your words gave me strength and I've never been more proud to be your fan. I've supported you since 2013 and every day, you spark more passion in my heart.

As a well-known celebrity, you're probably told to watch what you say. Everything that comes out of your mouth will be scrutinized and most likely twisted in some way. This has never stopped you for sharing your passionate beliefs with us, your fans. By creating a conversation about important topics such as feminism and politics, you have become more than just a musician to us.

Your open letter to Donald Trump and his supporters has made me realize that a formal "Thank You" is long overdue. The letter was articulate, inspiring, and full of passion. We are so proud of you for embracing your heritage, sexuality, and womanhood. It's made me, and thousands of others, proud to be who they are too.

Instead of telling only my story, I decided to reach out to my Twitter followers and friends to create one big thank you letter. Here's what they had to say:

"Lauren has inspired me to stand up for what I believe in and don't let anyone make me feel like I don't have a voice. She has also taught me how to respect and love myself for who I am." -Jared, @HTTPXJAUREGUl

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.
