Sometimes you just have weeks that make you go crazy they're so stressful. I asked around among some fellow students what their favorite ways to relieve their stress is. So here they are, I hope one of these helps you relieve the stress in your life.

1. Hot bubble bath

Dr. Teal's Soothe & Sleep Foaming bath is the best.

2. Working out/going for a fun

Stressed? Run Forrest run.

3. Cooking 

Stress baking in the BEST.

4. Cleaning 

This sounds crazy, but omg it is such a good stress reliever.

5. Organizing 

Organization is the key to life.

6. Nap

Nap all your worries away.

7. Watch Netflix/Hulu 

Turn on a show like Friends or the Office and laugh your head off.

8. Going outside and enjoying nature 

Sometimes being one with nature makes everything go away.

9. Listening to music 

"Don't Worry About a Thing" -Bob Marley you're welcome

10. Read the bible 

John 14:27 is one of my favorite. Find a go to verse that reminds you that everything will be okay.

11. Shopping 

Nothing in this world compares to retail therapy

12. Manis & pedis 

Ask if they have hot rocks, it's something you never knew you needed.

13. Going out to eat with your favorite people 

Being around your people really brightens your day no matter how bad it is, and food food makes everything better.

14. Eating Ice Cream 

Ice cream is the best. Try Blue Bell Vanilla Ice cream with magic shell on it and thank me later.

15. Journaling 

Writing down what's going on is the best thing I've ever done. I can write every emotions and not worry about watching what I say.

16. Drinking Alcohol of choice 

Only if you're of legal age should you do this ;)

Wine is the best.

17. Playing video games 

Mindlessly killing zombies or playing mario cart is amazing.

18. Face mask 

Something about putting smelly gunk on your face makes life better.

19. Writing letters to people and yourself 

Writing letter uplifting and loving letters to yourself and people you are about is the best!!!!

20. SCREAMING 

When in doubt, scream it out. :)

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.

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.
