10 Netflix Documentaries To Change Your Perspective On Life
Wired

Over the last few weeks, I've been binge-watching all types of documentaries on Netflix. Not only are they fun to watch, but they're also so informative. Here are a few of my most recently watched favorites!

1. "Living On One Dollar"

This documentary, about four Americans who try to survive in Guatemala on only one dollar a day, will really open your eyes to life in extreme poverty and the wonders of human kindness.

2. "Minimalism"

This documentary explains the unique lifestyle of minimalism, and is definitely worth the watch!

3. "The True Cost"

Describing the phenomenon of "fast fashion," this documentary may make you think twice before taking another trip to the mall.

4. "An Idiot Abroad"

This hilarious series documents Karl Pilkington as he grudgingly explores different parts of the world and experiences the local culture!

5. "Blackfish"

This revealing documentary sheds light on some of the hidden horrors of animal captivity and may make you rethink your next visit to SeaWorld.

6. "Planet Earth"

This breathtaking series will help you to appreciate the world around you in ways that you never knew before!

7. "Cosmos"

If you love science, you'll love this documentary about the universe, presented by Neil deGrasse Tyson!

8. "Making A Murderer"

This documentary follows the story of Steven Avery, a man wrongfully convicted of murder, and will leave you with chills!

9. "The Kindness Diaries"

This feel-good documentary follows Leon Logothetis as he travels while relying solely on the kindness of others. I dare you not to smile while watching!

10. "The Drop Box"

This documentary is about pastor Lee Jong-rak in South Korea, who has rescued over 600 orphans who would have been otherwise abandoned.

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.
