To My Sister Who Happens To Be A Senior In High School
Alexa Levin

Dear my little sister who happens to be a senior in high school,

Homecoming is over, yet graduation is practically a lifetime away.

Oh how I wish I could be in your position again. I remember senior year like it was yesterday. Counting down the days until graduation and praying to get accepted into my dream school, it was most definitely the best year of my life.

Every month there was something to look forward to. Senior year is filled with old friends, new friends, homecoming that you work so hard for to win, senior banquet, spring break with your best friends, senior cut day, you name it it was fun.

The last day of school it starts to hit you. This is the last day you'll be in the same building with all of these people at once. You grew up with them, cried with them, laughed with them and supported them. Though, some you never quite conversed with; you still feel like you're connected with them. I mean, you have been in school with them for the past 13 years.

Senior year... it goes by quicker than the weekend. There is so much fun, so much love, so much excitement it's gone in the blink of an eye.

Prom can be the best couple of hours of your life or after prom is when it gets good. You're constantly laughing, constantly thankful to be a senior but constantly ready to leave this place to refer to as jail, or whatever else you came up with since I graduated.

To my sister, who wishes high school over every second of every day...please stop. I envy you and sometimes catch myself vicariously living through your snapchats or your Instagram posts because jeez do I wish I could be in your place.

Enjoy your friends being a two minute drive down the highway, enjoy the minimal workload, enjoy the teachers who remind you daily of how quick this year will fly by.

You make me so proud, I am so excited to see what this year brings for you, I wish I could be in senior year again, I love you.

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.
