I'm incredibly excited to see what 2019 brings, so I wrote a list of what is to come. Read below and find out what you should be looking for!

Reboots!

"Pet Sematary," "Dumbo," "The Lion King," "Jacob's Ladder," "Men In Black," "The Addams Family" and more will be remade in the new year.

A museum of the Statue of Liberty

In the museum, you go from room to room, learning how the statue was made. You'll almost feel as if you are in the sculptor's warehouse.

The ending of "Game of Thrones"

The last season of "Game of Thrones" will air this coming year. It had an incredible run, and this will no doubt be the best season yet.

Lets just say it's going to be a big year for Disney (Both Disney theme parks including more Star Wars, movies)

Disney is doing an incredible job. "Star Wars" is being incorporated into the theme parks, and movie after movie is being released. A few movies too that they are releasing are "The Lion King", "Dumbo", "Aladdin", "Avengers: End Game", etc.

It's a huge year for movies

The thing I'm most excited about are the movies being released this year. Some I'm most excited for include "Glass", "Hellboy," "Star Wars," "Frozen 2," "Pokemon," etc.

And books!

New and amazing books come out every year, but a certain few in 2019 include "The WInter of the Witch" by Katherine Arden, "The Road Beyond Ruin" by Gemma Liviero, "We Hope for Better Things" by Erin Bartels, etc.

Mahatma Gandhi turns 150

An incredible activist will be turning 150 on October 2nd!

We'll have 5 eclipses!

Five eclipses will grace us this year in parts of Argentina, Chile, South Pacific, South Asia, and the Arabian Peninsula!

An asteroid will hopefully miss Earth

There are suspicions that an Asteroid could hit Earth on February 1st, but it is very unlikely.

 The loss of certain species

In 2018 we lost a lot of amazing species to deforestation and hunting, like the last male northern white rhino. Species will only continue to decrease in the coming years.

 3D Printing

3D printing is coming to the medical field in amazing ways. Not only is it a fun little (expensive) project on the side, it's going to become something everyone will be talking about. It'll help with building medical tools, but 3D printers will also be sold to average everyday people.

 A royal baby

After sadly facing some ridicule and judgment from the media, there is finally great news! Meghan and Harry are expecting a baby sometime in the spring.

 Milestones

This year we can expect to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission.

Every year comes new and crazy experiences, and this year seems like it's going to be even crazier than the last. Enjoy 2019 and make it the best year 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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
