Yes, I am talking to you. You are probably pretty stressed right now, looking through the internet at the end of your tired, busy, and stressful day. You had a lot of work to do in many different places.

You stress yourself out to the point where you feel like there is no return and you basically don’t like people worrying about you because you are too focused on worrying about them. You want to be there for everyone and do everything, but you don’t make that same time for yourself.

There are those days where you feel so productive and you get so much done with feeling that great reward of helping others so much. Then, there are those other days where you don’t know what to do. You feel like you take all of your time for other people and other things that you thought were possible since you were able to do a lot of things before. Meanwhile, you get to the actual middle of everything that you took up and you just feel like you will collapse at any moment or you just actually collapse.

Seriously, I get it girl. I go through the same thing, but you get back up stronger and stronger every time or at least you feel like you do.

That’s the craziest part. It doesn’t make sense to you why, but that is what happens every single time. You keep taking on more and more, thinking you can handle it. Then, you watch everything collapse before you over and over again. Your life builds and falls over and over and over again.

Yes, admit it. This happens every day or every week. You probably would not be reading this up until this point if you did not relate to this at least slightly. These feelings I was just mentioning relapse a lot.

I want you to worry about yourself right now for a few minutes. Please just take a few deep breaths and keep reading. Worry about yourself and care for yourself for a little while. Sit there and think, if I cared for myself more, would these feelings be so prevalent in my life? The answer to that question is most likely a no.

Take at least a few minutes out of the day for yourself, maybe even a half an hour or a full hour! That time would be just for you. It would be for you to relax, unwind, and maybe even do something that you want to do. Please just take that time. That’s all I ask. I’ll try too with you all as the girls who take on too much at once. Good luck! You got this.I believe in you!

Sincerely,

Another girl who takes on too much

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.
