When you were a kid, you probably looked forward to snow because it meant no school, an entire day outside playing with your friends, and hot cocoa at the end of a long, cold day. However, college students don't have the luxury of Mom's hot cocoa or a sled to go down the hill with, or for many of us, not even a car to get around. These are 5 thoughts that college students have when it's snowing on their campus.

1. How am I going to walk to class?

Giphy

Walking to class is difficult enough when it's a normal day, but walking to class in the snow is an entirely different story. This requires finding your snow gear that is tucked in the back of your closet and actually USING it...which is way too much work if you ask me.

2. Will we have a snow day?

Giphy

While the chances are usually low, college students could always use a snow day. They still wait for that phone call from school saying that it was cancelled- although it usually never comes.

3. Can we go play outside?

Giphy

College kids are still kids- and they still love to do some of the same things that they did as kids. Who says that you have to stop building snowmen or making snow angels just because you're old enough to live on your own?

4. Should I make some hot chocolate?

Giphy

Hot chocolate is the CLASSIC snow day drink, so why not enjoy a piping mug of hot chocolate while watching the snow fall outside?

5. Why can't this happen every day?

Giphy

Snow is something that everyone enjoys, and even though it might be a slight inconvenience, it's so beautiful to see snow falling everywhere. So enjoy it while it lasts!

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.
