Should I Unpack My Suitcase?

It's Another Break and I'm Clueless

Should I Unpack My Suitcase?
Huffington Post

It's always so awkward. No, I mean it. It really is. That unanswered question that you debate over for so long you never actually get an answer.

Another break has rolled around once again and you find yourself packing to go home. You're just bursting at the seams to finally get some down time and spend it with your family, or more specifically your dog.

When you finally arrive home you find yourself standing over your suitcase questioning if you should unpack it. Eventually, you just shrug it off and move on.

Suddenly week(s) have passed and you realize that you never unpacked. "Next time I think I'll unpack," but next time it doesn't happen either.

So should we unpack between breaks or not?

I think that the big thing is that people don't want to have to go through all their clothes again to find the ones they brought with them. It is easier during a season change because you are able to drop clothes off and pick up some new ones. If you do unpack it may also be easier to forget clothes that are important.

A good thing about unpacking though is that you don't have clothes in bags getting in your way. It is much easier to navigate around your room this way as well. Another good thing is that you are able to detect what is clean, and what isn't, a lot easier as well. We all do want to be wearing our cleanest clothes.

Personally, I don't think even the smartest scientists will be ever able to answer this questions. It is one that will go down in history. So do you or don't you unpack your suitcase? Challenge yourself next time you find yourself at home to do the opposite. Sometimes it can be quite fun to switch it up.

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.
