These Oscars Will Be The Most Historic Yet

It’s the best season of the year! Red carpet season! The Oscars are rolling in with a bang this year as it's already making history before it has even started. If you haven’t been keeping up with all this exciting news I will fill you in. Let’s start with Mudbound. The film is the streaming platform’s first non-documentary to earn a citation from the Academy. But it doesn’t stop there. Rachel Morrison picked up a nod for best cinematography, becoming the first woman in Oscar history to get a nomination in that category. Pretty wild and only took the academy 90 years to finally get it right. Congrats Rachel!

To add onto the success of Mudbound we have director, Dee Rees, nominated for best adapted screenplay, making Rees the first black woman to pick up a nod in this category.Continuing on with some girl power we have Meryl Streep up for her 21st nomination (best actress for The Post) which has just made her the most nominated performer of all time. Can’t argue with the statistics, there is truly no one better than her.

Aside from the actress, directors, and cinematographers, we have a presenter who is making history this Oscar season. Daniela Vega is the first openly transgender woman to ever present at the Oscars. This whole Oscar season has been about breaking stereotypes and boundaries.

Films have brought us more together than ever before. It is more than just people on your screen reciting lines. We are taking real life issues and bringing them into the light. These Oscars have been the most historic yet and we haven’t even got to the actual show yet.

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.
