A Dilemma in the Form of an iPhone

Because it is one of the most annoying things at the moment.

A Dilemma in the Form of an iPhone

If you've been paying attention recently, it's hard to have a conversation with someone without having the "a" in the box come up every time you try to text, "I". Yes, it's quite annoying and I'm about to tell you how to fix it. Or if you haven't experienced this issue, I'm going to tell you how to avoid it.

A lot of us usually ignore the updates because most of the time... well, they're trash. Usually, I wait a couple months, but I recently updated my phone to the latest iOS and I haven't been having issues with it at all. I can also type without being rudely interrupted by random a's.

There has also been a rumor, that has not been proven, but the evidence presents itself, that every time a new iPhone comes out, a lot of the older versions start acting funky. I've noticed this to be true. I'm not bashing iPhone because I love the phone and the software. (Though sometimes, I admit I do switch back and forth from iPhone to Samsung very often) It's just that it gets annoying, yes we know your company has a new phone out, no we aren't going to be within the first group to purchase one. A lot of us won't purchase at all because we love our current phones. If Apple could just make the updates.... better, then the hesitance to install the recent update wouldn't be a big deal.

So if you absolutely can't stand the boxed "a" thing, go ahead and do the update. Plus, you get new emojis and those are always fun.

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.
