The Cleveland Story
Wikipedia

Cleveland is a big city in Northeast Ohio. With a population of a 390,000, Cleveland is the second largest city in the state of Ohio. Home of the Cleveland Indians, Cavaliers, and Browns as the three major sports leagues. Cleveland is a city built on hard work and team spirit.

2016 must be the year of Championships for Cleveland. From a lead of 3-1 in the NBA Finals, The Warriors lost the next three, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 4-3 win in the NBA Finals. This was the end (finally) to Cleveland's 52-year Championship drought.

The fans of Cleveland went crazy when the final buzzer sounded. The hard work of supporting these teams for years has finally paid off. Cleveland is bringing home a championship.

As the NBA Finals occurred, the MLB was starting off and with this, the start to a very successful season for the Cleveland Indians. Now, in mid-October, the Indians are in the semi-final round of the World Series. Up 2-0 against the Toronto Blue Jays, the Indians are anxiously ready to move on to the Championship series.

What is this mysterious phenomenon that is occurring in Cleveland. Some may say that the curse has been broken. But how did we break it? What special event happened to break the curse to allow Cleveland to gain a Championship?

I can answer this. It's the fans. It is the people that make up the city and the fan base and the teams. These people are the supporters and are the ones that will never stop loving a team no matter what occurs. Because of this, the Cleveland teams felt a surge of pride and support from their fans. This is what lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to the NBA Finals and eventually the Championship. This is what is letting the Cleveland Indians do so well in the ALCS.

The Cleveland fan base has been voted best and biggest in all major sports year after year because we stick by our teams no matter what. This is what sports should be about.

Cleveland is Home.

Cleveland will always be supported.

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.

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.
