As the new school year begins, everyone is excited to be back with all their friends and especially their roommates. Living with your best friends is exciting and you have so much you want to do, so I am creating a roomie bucket list, not just for roommates, but also for friends. I know my BFF and I planned to do so many things, but either forgot or never got around to it. Hopefully, by writing this list we will do it and you can do it as well. Let's begin the roomie bucket list:

1. Get on a first name basis with their family.

I mean you are basically family, you might as well become a part of theirs.

2. Celebrate birthdays in a BIG way.

3. Stay in and have a Disney movie night.

4. Go to a midnight premiere of a movie.

Any movie, any time (well midnight), anywhere

5. Cook something new together.

Tiramisu, anyone?

6. ROAD TRIP!

7. Go apple/pumpkin picking in the fall.

MC this one is for you!

8. Make snow-cream in the winter.

Especially for the ones who have never had it

9. Start a TV show from the beginning and watch all of it together.

I suggest One Tree Hill

10. Do something you always wanted to do, but never have done.

This could be ANYTHING!

11. Visit a random museum.

12. Explore the farmer's market.

13.Have a middle school sleepover-complete with mani/pedis and a pillow fight.

14. Go to a sporting event.

Go pack!

15. Travel to a sporting event.

Hopefully your team makes it far enough to go to a championship

16. Visit each other's hometown.

You know you want to see where they grew up.

17. Attend a concert.

18. Spend a day at the beach.

19. Make a craft for your place together.

20. Decorate for EVERY holiday-even Presidents Day.

21. Zip line through a forest.

22. Jump off of a waterfall.

23. Karaoke night!

24. Shopping spree.

Even if it is just a trip to Wal-Mart.

25. Volunteer together somewhere.

26. Participate in your own version of cupcake wars.

Nothing like some roomie competition

27. Do each other's favorite activity.

28. Run a marathon (or walk it).

Walking for those who refuse to run

29. Go camping.

30. Roomie game night.

A must!

31. Visit an amusement park.

Preferably Disney World

32. Go on a double date...

or triple or quadruple.

33. Learn a new trade.

Pottery, knitting, archery, you name it!

34. Picnic in the park.

35. Enjoy every minute together!

Who knows how long you will be living together?

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.
