You have to admit, at some point in your life, you have procrastinated doing something you really need to do. Whether it be taking out the trash, putting off that 10 page essay until the night before, or washing that pile of clothes that are growing into its own person.

1. Pushing it off

You know that you have a whole 6 weeks to complete that essay so whats the point of starting now. Your favorite episode of Grey's Anatomy is on.

2. Realizing you have been procrastinating all day.

Sometimes you feel like you are just one big unproductive mess. The last time you procrastinated, you swore you would never do it again

3. You repeatedly go back to the refrigerator swearing every time you'll get started after you get through eating

Just after this bag of chips. I PROMISE!

4. Then you finally pick up the book and you remember you have to Snapchat someone back before you start

But it is IMPERATIVE that I send Johnny back an "lol" back to his Snap. But then Heather just messaged me back on Facebook so I'll just respond back to her really quickly.... 5 hours later....


5. The week your assignment is due

But you still have until Sunday at midnight to submit it though

6. When you've been purposely been trying to forget the assignment and you now really forgot about it

SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT! Why do I keep doing this to myself!

7. So you FINALLY put all of the foolery aside and start

*Writes name and date* Me: SO ACCOMPLISHED! I AM PROUD OF YOU!

8. Yeah right, keep fooling yourself

Ohhhhh well... there's always next time

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.

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.
