Unfiltered Thoughts I Had During The First Presidential Debate

WOOO, HERE WE GO! Trump with the wild card blue tie. Bold choice. I'd comment on Hillary's outfit, but feminist Twitter would be at my door with pitchforks. ANYWAY

Trump sounds like he has a cold, and I'm not sure how long I can deal with the sniffling for. Wondering how that impacts viewer perception of him. Should be interesting.

Hillary, you hate wealthy people and Trump hates poor people, we get it.

Trump takes a long chug of water looking like a frat boy at a Kentucky Derby party.

"Trump thinks climate change is Chinese hoax." I don't have time to fact check this, but I'm laughing.

Hillary, the only thing your husband was doing in the 1990's was Lewinksy; take it down a notch.

Honestly, as much as I dislike Clinton, she's so driven that I can't help but be inspired even slightly

Things are getting heated. Trump needs to stop interrupting Clinton. The media's gonna rip him apart.

Hillary Clinton just plugged her book, and I'm honestly impressed at how shameless it was.

You can tell that Trump wants to flip out. His campaign manager slipped a Xanax into that glass of water; no doubt in my mind.

The smug looks on both parties makes me genuinely uncomfortable. Why is Rudy Giuliani not running again?

"This is Secretary Clinton's two minutes, Mr. Trump." They should honestly just let them go back and forth all night. It would be entertaining and much less rehearsed.

Trump makes an Obama golf reference. I'm dying.

Why are Trump's financial records so sought after? He's wealthy. I know Americans love to hate successful people, but just let it go.

The moderator is #TeamHillary all the way, but he can at least pretend to hide it.

Hillary RATTLED about the email comment, but the audience is loving it.

CLINTON, WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING? YOU THREATENED NATIONAL SECURITY?!! Okay, I need to turn the bias down. Apologies.

Hillary trying to act like she's not stressed out about the topic of emails being raised is the face you make at a party when you see your ex talking to other girls.

Can we all just reflect on the fact that Donald Trump is legitimately the Republican nominee? Like this is real life.

"My father provided a good, middle-class life for us." A Yale-educated politician with a net worth of $31.3 million trying SO hard to be relatable.


They're talking about race, now, so this is where I sign off. I look forward to seeing the magical moments that happen during the remaining half hour. Enjoy, everyone!

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.
