Going on a trip, need to pack? I bet this is what runs through your head.

Thoughts You Have While Packing
My Fotolog

I love traveling, it is one of my favorite things. Another one of my favorite things to do is pack! Most people hate it but I don't know why, it means you are going somewhere. I recently had to pack and I know I am not alone when I say these things go through your head when you pack:

1. I am going to stay so organized this time.

2. Let me plan out all of my outfits.

3. Wow, I have a lot of clothes.

4. I am going to bring what I need, and nothing else.

5. Well I guess I could bring this just in case I need it.

6. I am going to be there for five days, might as well bring 15 pair of underwear. You know, just in case.

7. I'm not even bringing tennis shoes but I'll bring three pairs of socks. I might get cold.

8. If I am bringing socks, maybe I should bring tennis shoes.

9. Oh rats, I have to bring shoes. I'm not going to have enough room.

10. Maybe I should bring a bigger suitcase.

11.Then I could totally bring more clothes.

12. No, I told myself I wasn't going to over pack.

13. Screw it! I'm bringing it all!

14. UGH! I have nothing to wear.

15. Oh wait! My floor is covered in clothes.

16. I really need to stop shopping........HAHA like that is ever going to happen.

17. What would happen if I didn't bring a razor?

18. Five days without shaving.....YIKES, I'll find room for a razor. Its small.

19. Now I have to go to Target to get travel size stuff.

20. Well since I'm getting travel stuff I may as well get candy for the plane. And gum. And Chapstick. Maybe a new book, and might as well look at clothes.

21. NO MORE CLOTHES!!

22. How much makeup do I actually need to bring?

23. I'm only going to bring twelve tubes of lip gloss, sounds reasonable.

24. I'm glam, I have to bring so much makeup! I don't even know how to scale back on that.

25. What purse am I going to bring?

26. Why did I not think of this sooner? I have to find something that will match everything that I am packing. Oh good lord, DECISIONS, DECISIONS!!

27. How heavy can my suitcase be?

28. Calls mom "How heavy can my suitcase be?"

29. I can't take anything out. I need everything that I packed.

30. Now on to the carry on.

31. If I bring a book I have to bring a back up. Its a long flight, I'll most likely finish one and want to move on to another one.

32. What am I allowed to bring.....can I bring lipgloss?

33. Calls mom again "What are the rules about bringing liquids on a plane?"

34. Good thing I just bought candy at Target, I can put it in my carry on.

35. Looks in mirror for 20 minutes trying to make sure the carry on, the suit case and the purse I chose all match. If they don't that could be real embarrassing.

36. Well now that I know I match I have to find a wallet to match everything.

37. MORE DECISIONS!!

38. Sits on floor to admire all the pretty things I own.

39. OH! I didn't even see this shirt, maybe I should have packed that too.

40. I bet I can roll it up and find room for it.

41. WHAT AM I GOING TO WEAR ON THE PLANE????

42. Have to make sure it matches my carry on ;)

43. Takes a break to snap chat the progress I have made.

44. WHERE IS THE PLANE EMOJI?

45. I finally think I am done packing! Lets go travel!

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.
