The Stages of New Years Eve As Told By The Office

8:00PM - Setup

You have your beer, your wine, your liquor, your veggie platters, your chicken wings, and your tub of kidney beans

.

8:30PM - Everyone starts piling in.

You have the party goers who know their one and only goal is to black out as hard as they did in college because New Years Day is nothing more than the first out of many failed attempts at a high reaching resolution.


And those who are much more excited about whatever this new year will bring them.

8:31PM - Drinks are flowing...heavily.

9:00PM - You're sufficiently buzzed and ready for a snack.

The cheese platter seems to be untouched but everyone's thinking the same thing. Who's going to make the first move?

But we all prepare in different ways...


9:30PM - "Sometimes you just have to be the boss of dancing." -Michael G Scott

10:00PM - Conversation starts heating up.

True feelings are shooting out like wildfire.

Someone's bound to get offended.


The rest of you just keep sippin'.


10:30PM - Your freaky side comes out to play when your dancing gets a little more...interesting.

There's the ladies,

And the gentlemen.

11:00PM - The drunken heart-to-hearts break out in different rooms throughout the house.

Someone somewhere is questioning every decision ever made in 2016.

11:15PM - Words start slurring.

Everything stops making sense.

11:30PM - Everyone reconvenes for an poorly-timed group photo.

"COME ON GUYS GROUP PHOTO GROUP PHOTO. EVERYONE GET IN. RONNIE, THAT MEANS YOU TOO. GET OVER HERE GREGORY OR YOUR SLEEPING IN THE DOG BED TONIGHT."

11:45PM - True resolutions trickle out of unsuspecting party goers.

11:58PM - THE ANTICIPATION KILLS YOU.

12:00 - 3! 2! 1! MAKEOUT!


Unless you're as single as Michael Scott - then you just watch.

Go crazy, everyone. You survived 2016.

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.
