30 Things I'd Rather Do Than Write My Thesis
Talking Evil Bean

Being in your Senior Year means crunching for hours to get your thesis done on time by the end of the semester; however, Senioritis strikes hard when it comes to writing a thesis. Here are 30 things, both good and bad, that I would rather be doing than writing my thesis.

1. Taking my girlfriend on a date

2. Climbing a mountain

3. Going to the beach with friends

4. Becoming friends with a shark

5. Playing Pokemon GO in a New England snowstorm

6. Treating myself to Ben & Jerry's

7. Coming up with a senior prank that's better than my high school senior prank (It was terrible)

8. Having a few (or a lot) drinks with my (legal) friends

9. Watching a new Netflix or Hulu Original

10.Skateboarding down a long road on a sunny day

11. Being forced to hitchhike home from college

12. Go through old-school fraternity hazing

13. Walk through a graveyard at night

14. Go on a vision quest

15. Play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on the Nintendo Switch for 48 hours straight

16. Drink hot sauce straight with no chaser

17. Go toe-to-toe with the Incredible Hulk

18. Go cliff diving

19. Be in the pit at a Twenty One Pilots concert

20. Suffer through Freshman year icebreaker

21. Gain the Freshman Fifteen. Twice.

22. Be a Delivery Guy for Domino's on the first Friday/Saturday night of the semester


23. Go to class drunk/high with a Conservative Professor

24. Go on a long drive at night with my good friends

25. Do the Gummy Bear Challenge

26. Ice Skate on melting ice

27. Having Thanksgiving II in the Spring and deal with the relatives again...

28. Work at Walmart to pay my entire college tuition

Watch the video here by Joe Santagato to figure out why this is such a bad idea.

29. Go sledding and have snowball fights


30. Last but not least: Have sex


Yeah, writing a thesis is not fun, and there is always something else you'd rather be doing. Alas, we must push past the procrastination and get it done. It's the last big challenge before graduation, afterall.

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.

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.
