What I Think Every Single Morning Before Getting Up For Class

Getting up for class, I'd rather not.

Every night I try to go to bed at a reasonable time, but Netflix loves to overpower me. I know I have an eight am class, but I can run off a few hours of sleep right? College students are known for nearly overdosing on coffee, but when it is time to get up out of bed. I already set six alarms, five minutes apart from each other, I most definitely will not be late for class. These last five minutes are just needed. I cannot possibly be late if I hit snooze one more time. When you are in college you do not shower, well barely. Rocking the messy bun sounds like a better idea everyday.

In the south, you never know what to wear, especially when your half awake and you haven't had a chance to walk outside. Is it cold or is it hot outside? Wait it does not matter because I forgot to do laundry. Great. I only had one class yesterday, if I re-wear the outfit no one will notice. Okay we have a plan, we are good. Wait, how many times have I worn this shirt? Maybe I will shock the world and match my shirt with my Nike shorts. People will actually think I have my life together if I match today. Style is one of the few things I do not care about in the morning.

It is hard enough to even wake up in the mornings and even harder to go to class. Do I really have to go? Attendance is mandatory, but missing one day will not count against me. We have a three unexcused absent rule. Wait, what if something happens and I need to miss a few days? You know what? I will just go to class. After I decide to finally get up and go to class I ask myself "should I take the trolley?"

I know that the trolley is going to get me to my class on time, but if I drive, I can totally hit up Chick-Fil-A on the way. Actually, yes, I need chicken tenders in my life, but wait I have no gas. Oh and look, gas went up again. Is it embarrassing to pay gas in change? Of course if I count out the change now, the cashier is going to have to recount it even though I just did it in front of him. Maybe I should just email my teacher ahead of time and tell her I am having car difficulties because odds are she will see me on the side of the road on campus somewhere with no gas, in tears.

My life is in shambles, why didn't I just join the military, or even smarter why would I register for 8 am's when I clearly need something after 11 because I'm still trying to recuperate from last night's rager. I guess I'll just call my mom and cry to her now and she can walk me through this, just like she does every morning.

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.

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.
