To My Mom As I Leave For My Last Semester Of College
Emily Gauss

You've been there for kindergarten graduation, high school graduation, and soon college graduation. You're the only one who has never faulted in always being there for me. You never missed a large event in my 21 years of life. I can't wait to make you proud with the rest of my life and be able to support you like you have me for so many years.

I have officially started my very last semester of college, graduating a semester early (thank you campbell and ccc). The past 3 1/2 years away from the only constant person in my life has opened my eyes dramatically. Sure, we still argue; we're mother and daughter, it happens. But, in the end I know you will always be there for me.

Thank you for being there through all the heart breaks in middle school, high school, and even college. Thank you for not saying "I told you so" when you were right about the boys who caused said heart breaks. Thank you for always being just a phone call away when you weren't just a hallway away. Thank you for always listening to me. Thank you for always trying to give me advice, even if I didn't want to hear it. Thank you for taking me on endless shopping trips when I thought I didn't have enough clothes (even though I always did). Thank you for being the very best mom you could be. Thanks to you and your support, I will be able to move on in my life whether it be grad school or entering the real world.

As I start my last semester, I realize just how luck I am to have you as my mom. Not everyone has a mother or a good relationship with their mom. I was lucky enough to have a mom and have a best friend wrapped into one. I certainly wouldn't have been able to get through the last 3 years away from you without you to always talk to.

I want you to know how wonderful of a job you did all on your own. You're incredible inside and out. Even on your worst days, you're still the absolute best. Thanks for being you mom. I can't imagine my life without you. I love you to the moon and back times 10.

I love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my mother you'll be.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.

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.
