The Life Of Freshmen At WNE

The odd adventures of freshman year.

The Life Of Freshmen At WNE
Brooke Barup

There is a lot of things that I never thought I would be involved in, and none of them involve being a part of campus activities. Since it's been about 11 weeks since school started, a couple friends and I have weekly Walmart trips because there is always something that gets forgotten that is needed on a regular basis. Half of those trips involve fish (we might have a fish problem), but it's all for the fun of things. There's been people walking in on other people changing or going to the bathroom once every two weeks or so.

Staying up too late has become the ultimate issue when it comes to school nights and 8 am classes. You just don't do it. The thing about 8 am's is that getting up is a problem and you know that if you wake up at 7:30 a.m. you won't have time to eat and really relax and enjoy the morning because you're rushing (happens to me every single time). My conclusion about 8 am's is that they make you gain that freshman 15 because after being in class for 80 mins, you get more hungry than you started, meaning excessive eating.

Once it hits October the maintenance people shut off the air conditioning and it's still so hot that you could have a sauna in your own room for no charge at all. Those late night McGangBangs from McDonald's and Walmart trips that might be a suicide mission are on the top of my list when it comes to things you should never do, but you do it anyway.

In the words of my friends "We saved fish from Walmart and they're happier now."

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
