We all have our quirks about us. Most of which we're a little scared to share with others because we think that each of them is unique to us. Over time, I have found quite a few oddities that we can all understand. Below are the top 19 most relatable...

1. Picking out specific Sour Patch Kids colors.

And Skittles. And Starbursts. I know I’m not the only one who will only eat the shades of red.

2. Throwing clean clothes in the hamper.

When we’re just too tired to hang another article of clothing up in the closet.

3. Redecorating our rooms every three months.

The trends are changing faster than we can repaint the walls and purchase a new comforter.

4. Tasting things that we know won’t result in satisfaction.

Like trying that one food that always made your stomach churn one more time just to see if your taste buds have changed their mind.

5. Tossing water bottles under the bed (behind the driver’s seat).

And wonder where all of the trash came from months down the line.

6. Believing that those same water bottles are contaminated and undrinkable after the third sip.

And then wonder why the world is dying.

7. Self-diagnosing illnesses.

Only to decide that we are certainly dying after searching “cough” on WebMD.

8. Choosing only the chips that are covered in flavor dust.

Making all of your friends hate sharing any snacks with you.

9. Imagining my life as a Grey’s Anatomy character instead.

Or a Friends character.

10. Asking yourself “what would Meredith Grey do?”

Or Monica Geller?

11. Sipping from the same spot on the glass each time.

If not only to avoid covering the rim in lip gloss smudges.

12. Having anxiety about automatic doors.

Especially when walking more quickly than it opens.

13. Preparing the voice you will use when you say “here”.

Role call never gets easier, not even in college.

14. Testing out our British accents.

But ONLY in the car, when we know no one can hear our poor impression.

15. Turning down the volume in the car when you get lost.

As if it will somehow help you find the way.

16. Singing the entire alphabet.

Because, apparently, you can’t just skip to the part you need.

17. Listening to the same song for days on repeat.

At least you’ll know all of the words next time you need to bust it out at a party.

18. Peeing in the shower.

We all do it, don’t get so offended.

19. And finally, relating to every item on this list.

But that’s okay, we won’t tell if you don’t.

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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
