To the Critics of PSL Enjoyers,

For anyone who may not know what PSL stands for it is the coveted, only purchasable for about three months, Pumpkin Spice Latte. It is a treasure for any basic girl (or guy) out there. However, this year the early release of the delicious coffee/latte flavoring has started a fire within some summer loving coffee enjoyers. One man has even gone as far as standing outside a local Wawa to protest “premature” pumpkin spice.

I, a lover of the seasonal flavor, however felt that I needed to respond to Cosmopolitan.com’s August 31st article “People Are Pissed About the PSL This Year".

The basic inner white girl inside me has been personally offended by the backlash against my favorite flavor! How dare anyone attack such a perfect blend of cinnamon and nutmeg flavoring? Have you ever even tasted the amazing liquid gold that is a Pumpkin Spice Latte?! Probably not!

When I think of the fall time I think of football games, those pinkinsh sunsets that fade so quickly to black, apple picking, hay rides, pumpkin carving, haunted house visiting, and sipping on anything pumpkin spice! I as a lover of anything fall does not enjoy my experience being sabotaged by someone who hates PSL. Just because our opinions may vary does not mean I should feel judged when I approach the Starbucks counter and order myself an iced PSL.

Why should stores stop “premature” pumpkin spice? Just because some may not enjoy the flavoring does not mean that thousands of others don't love it. So to the people attacking mine (and many others) PSL I have two things to say to you. Number one, if you have a problem with “premature” PSL just DON’T buy it! Secondly, I will enjoy the few months I have to wear my oversized flannels, watch my school's football team destroy others, and sip my PSL!

Sincerely,

This PSL lover

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.
