We made it! Finals are done, papers are submitted, winter break is finally upon us. And it is well-needed, I might add. We think a 4 month semester is a long time, yet how did we ever survive a whole year of high school?


Here are the top things on my mind while I drive home to enjoy these next few weeks off...

10. Trips to NYC

What's a holiday season without a nice day in the city or picture in front of the tree to post on Instagram?

9. Home Cooked Meals

I don't know about you, but I am definitely sick of eating the same old dining hall food each day.


8. Back to the Gym

Damn, all that time sitting at my desk studying this semester has really made me out of shape.


7. Catching up on Netflix

To my favorite series; don't worry, well be together again soon.


6. Catching up on SLEEP!

Ugh, I missed my own bed so much.WHAT?! I can finally turn off all my alarms?


5. Sitting by the Fire with Hot Chocolate

Especially rewarding after a long day out in the cold or snow!



4. Traveling

I can't wait to escape this cold weather!


3. Gifts & Holidays

This will never get old.


2. Spending time with friends and family that I haven’t seen in awhile.

Reunited and it feels so good.


1. NOT having school work to do!


Imagine that!!!

Sounds amazing, time to relax and do absolutely nothing...

Yeah, until I'm bored and wishing I was back at school!


However you choose to spend your break, make it a great one! Know that next semester brings a fresh start. Stay safe, warm, stress-free and have a happy holiday!

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.
