5 Things To Do Over The Summer

When you have spent months in school studying, stressing and pushing yourself to work hard to get those good grades in, the only thing you absolutely look forward to is that long-awaited summer vacation. You know, the one that will take all that little bit of stress away and you can just focus on having fun, working and making money.

Well, once the wait is over and summer is finally here what do you do? I mean, most people don't really spend time making plans for the summer because they're too busy worried about homework and studying. So most people just ended up sitting in their bed with some food in one hand and the remote in the other binge watching episodes of friends on Netflix, which is great but it definitely isn't the ideal vacation you've been looking for.

So, instead of just sitting around and thinking about what there is to do, get up and grab some friends to go on a road trip and take trip down to the beach. There is so much to do other than just sit around. Living in this gigantic world you have an abundance of options.

Here are just a few ideas:

1.Go to the beach.

If you live anywhere near a beach, that is the perfect place to just get away and have some fun for a few hours or even days, depending on how much you're willing to spend to keep the fun going.

2. Go on a road trip.

I'm going to be honest, this one is a bit more tough. What I mean is you need the right the car, the right amount of people, the right kind of people and a pretty good amount of money, because the road trip itself might cost you with gas.

3. Get involved.

There has to be something that you are interested in. Whether that be something within you're creative interest, you're willingness to serve your community or a volunteer job that is looking for some people. Getting involved is a good way to keep busy and at the same time do something that you are interested in doing.

4. Go camping for a few days.

If you are with the right people, then go camping. Camping is so much fun, and depending on where you go, there is so much you can do.

5. See the world.

Take a plane ride somewhere. It doesn't have to be far and there are some airlines that have some great deals on one-way and round-trip flights.

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.
