To Those Who Don't Know Me, But Still Judge Me
SIMKL

Hey there,

I understand everyone has their opinions, and we are all entitled to those opinions. You could be critiquing my social media, discussing my actions with your groups of friends, or nitpicking at the details of my life. Hell, I do it too, but has it ever occurred to you that maybe (just maybe) you have no damn idea what you are talking about? Pardon my French, but seriously. I just simply cannot understand how you can sit back and deliberately inspect my life piece by piece without knowing squat about me. So, I thought, how about you and I have a little talk.

Now, you see, I'm actually not that bad. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely suck sometimes, but not as bad as you make it out to seem. Let's start out with my choices. You can discuss the choices I make in life all you want because guess what... they aren't your choices to make! I do not give a rat's behind if the choice was a good or bad one. It is none of your business! Shocker, I know, but it's true. We all mess up in life. We all make questionable choices. We all make mistakes. Deal with it, move on, and oh, I don't know maybe focus on you own choices.

Okay, next. We can move onto your lovely critiques about my personality now. Everyone is different! Literally, there is not a single person who is the same as you. Do you want to know why? Well, I mean part of it has to do with our genetic makeup, but we all have different personalities! Amazing, right? Every single person on this planet expresses themselves differently. Whether I am loud, quiet, narcissistic, kind, dramatic, or all of the above; nobody else is like me. I don't know about you, but I love that. So, let me be me and you can be you. Sound like a plan? Perfect.

We still have more to talk about though, like you judging my appearance. Let's all take a brief moment to refer to the above paragraph where I mentioned how we al have different genetics. Ok, cool, so in addition to that literally everyone has things they don't like about themselves. It could be your thighs, nose, tummy, teeth, hair, exedra. We all have those insecurities, so get over it. Nobody is perfect, besides maybe Jennifer Aniston, but even she got a nose job! Nobodies bodies will ever be 100% perfect to themselves, so stop nitpicking everyone else insecurities and think about how it'd feel if I was doing that to you.

With all of this being said, you must understand that you and I will not lead the same lives. Every individual person's lives will be made up of a series of events which will influence everything that they are. So, respectfully, if you want to judge who I am then you have to know why I am the way I am first.

Glad we had this talk.

From,

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.

Power of Love Letters

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.
