The Truth Behind "HORRORscopes"
Horoscopes

Are you having a bad day? Are you looking for the reason why you can't get over it or deal with the issue head on? There may just be a solution or a more common assumed solution just for you.

Statistics from upi.com show that within the last four years, horoscope readings have become more common, especially upon people ranging from ages 18-24. So, technically speaking, in the the break-up or even new relationship you're in can all be boiled down to one search right on your phone in the eyes of today's young generation.

Horoscopes used to be used to determine fate when it came to life situations or to just give a daily outlook on what a person can look forward to by the end of the day. The idea of the horoscope has definitely changed.

Horoscopes today give reasons why love either works or doesn't, advice on why a person feels the way they do on a specific day or why something occurred when it did.

The thought of one idea based off astrology being able to connect to every person in the world who has the same zodiac sign seems a bit over the top, wouldn't you say?

It's difficult to answer a question such as this when there are people worldwide who feel like their life is either coming to an end or going to be a fairy tale off of reading one perspective. Answer this: how legit can it truly be for each and every person on planet Earth?

So what does it take for people to be more realistic when it comes to their own lives?

RULE #1 : STOP FEEDING INTO THE HOROSCOPES ! Horoscopes are general, not personalized.

RULE #2 : Try to stay away from the superstition, live through your experiences and learn from them, both good and bad.

RULE #3 : If you're that concerned or tempted to know the reasoning behind what you're going through, find a relaxing hobby that can get your mind juices flowing and figure out realistic reasoning on your own.

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.
