So I know I haven't been writing that much in the past couple of weeks but ya girl is back! Finals week was brutal but I made it through and I'm back to put a smile on your pretty little faces. Now that I've had the time to get used to being home for winter break, I thought I'd share my thoughts that I've had for the first week home. So without further a do, let's get this party started.

Day 1 (The Arrival)

1. *Steps off the coach bus in NYC* "Oh my God! Civilization! People! Tall Buildings!"

2. "It's time to hit the ground running! I got sh#t to do and people to see! Let's Go!"

3. "I'm going to Chipotle. Chipotle is my life."

4. "I'm going to Shake Shack. The burgers are angelic."

5. "Real Spanish food is a must."

Day 2

6. "I'm going to BBQ's.The BBQ ribs are a gift from heaven."

7. "Wow. Food is at the top of my list of being home but have you tasted dining hall food? Exactly"

8. "I gotta go see my best friend. It's about to get crazy up in NYC. They not ready for us."

9. "I gotta go visit my old skating program, Figure Skating in Harlem. I practically live there."

Day 3

10. "I am so excited for this break. I have so many things I want to do."

11. "I gotta go to the ice rink and see my synchro team just so I can steal some of their ice time.

12. "Wow. I have a lot of plans I want to do this break. Do I have the money for all of this?"

13. "You know what? I might have to pull it back with all these plans I have. I live on a fixed budget and NYC ain't cheap."

Day 4

14. "F&ck it. I'm out to see SING at the movies and grab a bite to eat at Chipotle with my best friend."

15. "Wow. I'm starting to get a little bored at home."

16. "Let me go visit my skating program again. That should keep me busy."

17. "Netflix! I'm gonna catch up on all of my shows."

Day 5

18. "Alright, my days are starting to get a little repetitive. This isn't fun."

19. "I need a job. I have a dollar to my name..."

20. "HA!!! That last point was funny. I'm too lazy for an actual job."

21. "I'm starting to miss my friends back at school."

22. "Wait how long is this break?"

23. "It's official. I'm bored. Let's get back to school. Not for the work, but for my friends."


So yeah. These are a couple of thoughts that I've had for the first week of being home. If you guys have any thoughts you wanna share, put them in the comments!

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.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
