College is such a great time in your life.

It’s full of freedom, spontaneous adeventures, and doing basically whatever we feel like doing. When in college your groups of friends always include different people. You have the partiers, the nerds, the jocks, the mom friendsand the one special friend in the group the “Not the Mom Friend.”

If you’re not lucky enough to be that friend here’s what it’s like being that friend:

1. You have to text your friends your symptoms to make sure you’re not dying every time you have the slightest cough.

2. You don’t stop your friends from skipping class.

3. Your roommates usually telling you to make sure you're wearing a coat.

4. Uber is your go-to ride anywhere.

5. You’ve heard “What are you wearing?” more times than you can count.

6. 2 a.m. is a reasonable bedtime for you.

7. Any class before 11 a.m. is out of the question for you.

8. You consider Ramen noodles or mac-n-cheese bites a meal.

9. Napping is not just a luxury, it’s scheduled into your day.

10. You’re the mom friend's biggest nightmare.

11. You don’t think twice about skipping class.

12. Spending $20 at the grocery store is unreasonable to you but, $20 at McDonalds is always okay.

13. You forget about getting important things like gas for your car.

14. Tardiness is justifiable with Starbucks

15. Your laundry has been dirty for three weeks.

16. Or has been clean but sitting in a basket for two weeks.

17. You hear “don’t touch that” at least fifteen times a day.

18. The word “No” brings literal tears to your eyes.

19. Being responsible is hard for you.

20. When you actually HAVE to be the “Mom friend” you respect them a lot more because you realize dealing with 12 of you is the definition of hell.

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.

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.
