To Those I’m Leaving Behind In Less Than Two Weeks

Over the past two weeks, it really hit me that I'm moving 762 miles away from my comfortable suburban life that I've known forever to becoming an ADULT in a whole nother state.

I have a lot of things I want to say to a lot of people.

1. To my bed and my momma.

I'm honestly sorry I never made my bed, being a lazy girl the pros of getting into a nicely made bed at night just never outweighed the cons of exerting energy in the morning. But anyway, I'll never stop striving to make my mom proud. I'm never going to be able to repay my mom for the love and sacrifice she's given to me and my family. I don't think I'll ever stop missing her this year.

2. To my forever friends.

It recently hit me how undeserving I am of the love and opinions most of you have for me. I'm so freaking blessed to have people who think of me in ways I honestly can't. I love you sooo much and cherish the memories made and to come.

3. To the drama queen from sophomore year.

I was just saying your sandwich looked good. Chill:)

4. To my three doggos.

I'm ready to pack you guys in my carry-on because I can't imagine my life any different from the past 10 years filled with constant cuddles and constant barking, catfights, and your obsession over my trash can. So if any of you forget me before Thanksgiving like you did to Christian when he left, I'm going to be pissed.

5. To kimchi.

Its not goodbye, its see you later.

6. To Hakuya Sushi.

I can proudly say I've grown into the young woman I am today by eating here 4 days a week on some occasions. To the place I've gone when I'm hangry, happy, with girlfriends or family, or coming home from a really bad date, thank you for existing. I hold Chef Chuck and his family near and dear to my heart and stomach.

7. To my golf coach/life coach(not going to lie)

You've seen some of my highest of highs and lowest of lows and words nor actions can express the impact you've had on my journey of finding my identity. But the most important thing I want to say is sorry for being hungry, and most days on the edge of hangry.

8. To Liquid Fusion.

I actually don't know where I would spend my weekend nights with my friends if you didn't exist, so thank you. And I'm really sorry for spilling bubble tea and dropping straws all the time, don't miss me too much.

9. To the boy who taught me what a real emotional roller coaster was.

You were my token guy, but things just didn’t work. You gave me some of the best experiences I could ask for this year and you gave me the biggest heartaches. I hope you do great things, but I’m just to leave you behind with my high school memories if that’s cool.

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.
