Things People Say To Vegetarians.

1. So, what do you eat?So. Much. Food. The vegetarian options out there are almost endless.

2. Where do you get your protein from?I've gotten this question so may times I am starting to wonder if people know what protein even is. Or at the very least they overestimate the amount of protein in meat and underestimate the amount in vegetables.

3. Don’t you miss meat?I'm sure this isn't true for all vegetarians, but the thought of eating meat makes me feel sick. Also, most people who choose to give up probably do enjoy the last of meat-most people do. But their will and moral obligations are simply stronger than their taste buds.

4. But do you eat fish? Fish isn’t meat.I have honestly never understood this argument...A fish is a living animal yes? So the flesh of that once living thing you consumed is meat. Simple.

5. So you don’t eat bacon??? How sad.I bet this little guy doesn't think that's so sad.

6. Oh , I could never do that.You can, you just don't want to. It's okay to admit that.

7. You know we’re meant to eat meat right?You know I'm partially doing this for my own health right?

8. What if you trapped on a deserted island, would you eat meat then?In that crazy hypothetical situation would I eat meat? Yeah, probably. But the meat in that situation wouldn't have been the result of mass torture and murder. Just saying.

9. Is it because you want to lose weight ?Nope, just a perk.

10. You know you’re just killing plants right. Yet another one i will never understand. Yes, I understand are living things. But do they have brains? Maybe hearts? Do they think, have feelings, families, communities, ect? And this argument is invalid because I'm sure just one cow (or your meat) eats/"kills" more plants in one day than I consume in a week. So whose the "plant killer" now?

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.
