An Open Letter To My Best Friends

I couldn't have done high school without y'all

An Open Letter To My Best Friends
Hanna Akpan

Dear my best friends,

Thank you. Thank you for the good laughs and the funny inside jokes only we understand. Thank you for being there for me in high school when the times got hard and I couldn't see the end of the tunnel. Thank you for putting up with my nerd comments and goofy moments during lunch and even in public. Thank you for being there for me when I finished the best thing that could ever possibly happen to me (publishing my book!) Thank you for listening to me vent about the most serious things and ever the dumbest thing, but still listening because that's what a best friend does. Thank you for always being my go-to when I can't go to my parents. Thank you for taking on senior year and making it one of the best times of my high school experience. After spending a week back home, seeing my best friends before I leave for Tennessee for the next four months, I have realized that I'm going to miss the crap out of them. It's weird to think that I won't be living in this small town in GA anymore and I'm actually starting my life, but I know no matter the distance I'll always have my best friends by my side. I love you guys and Im so fortunate I got the chance to meet some the greatest people in high school. I can't wait to tell y'all the stories of my college freshman during christmas. Because this isn't goodbye, but just a see you later.

Love, HA

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.

It was the second time this year after an historic geomagnetic storm in May 2024. Those Northern Lights were visible in Europe and North America, just like this latest rendition.

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.
