Happy, sad, stressed, scared. There is a multitude of emotions and thoughts that come into play when you are about to graduate college and hopefully move on to bigger and better things. The real world can be daunting and scary, however, this is also a great time to spend the last few months you have with your closest friends. Here is a list of every thought that goes through a graduating senior's mind during a typical day second semester:

1. Do I really have to go to class today?

2. It's HOW COLD!?

3. Nope, not going

4. I mean my transcripts have already been sent so I should be fine right?

5. OMG what if I fail and don't graduate?! My entire family already bought plane tickets to come!

6. That would be the worst!

7. If I don't graduate on time can I still start grad school on time?

8. The answer is definitely no

9. Okay going to class

10. I seriously need to get rid of all my sorority t-shirts

11. My new look is now adult athlesuire

12. That's what real adults wear right?

13. Alright one last XL shirt and leggings because I'm running late and it's FREEZING outside

14. I'm for sure driving to class

15. Way too cold to walk

16. Too late for the bus

17. Do you have to pay all of your parking tickets before you graduate?

18. OMG you CAN"T even graduate without paying them

19. Tomorrow I'll stop driving to class

20. Look at all the little freshman

21. Aww I'm gonna miss walking on campus

22. I might even miss these lectures

23. No computers!? Just kidding when is graduation????

24. You already have an apartment for next year?!?!?!

25. Same... I know exactly what I'm doing after May...

26. I really need to finish my grad school apps tonight

27. Yay everyone is going out tonight!

28. I can't go

29. But I mean it is my senior year

30. Maybe just one drink

31. Yeah I deserve this I'm graduating

32. This might be some of my last memories with these girls

33. Am I really crying right now???

34. I'M FINE

35. I have all semester to go out

36. WHAT IF I NEVER SEE ANY OF MY FRIENDS AGAIN!??!

37. What if grad school classmates are the worst?!?!

38. No, it'll be fine, I'm fine, everything fine!

39. I can't wait until May! Grad school is going to be the best time of my life

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.
