Why its OK to be Nick Miller from 'New Girl'
Theresa Niemczyk

I always thought I was Jess Day from New Girl. I thought I was this cute quirky girl who was just getting by in my cute little awkward life but sadly I was wrong. Turns out I’m not cute and quirky but old and grouchy. So in other terms I am Nick Miller.

I thought that since I rock a lot of polka dots that I was cute. I also rock a lot of sweat pants which is not so cute and rocking them is probably not the correct term. I have been known to wear my nice sweat pants when told to dress up. On the other side of that I have been known to go way over board and wear an old prom dress to prove my point that I do dress up.

I have touched glitter within the past 24 hours but granted most of my makeup is comprised of glitter. I am not sure how to find make up without glitter but I am sure it is out there somewhere. Although somewhere I cannot seem to find. It’s too much work to find different make so I’m just going to stick with what I have. Sweat pants and glitter are combination that I seem to wear a lot.

I’m not the kind of person who gets upset over the small stuff. I do not cry over the commercials of homeless dogs. I know that admitting that out loud makes me seem like a monster but here me out. I get it those dogs have it bad but I also have it bad because I have my own problems and no one is making commercials to help me out. I take good things and make them bad. I have been turning lemonade into lemons since 1996. It is a skill of mine to take things that are already going pretty good in my life and make them into something less desirable. I don’t do it on purpose but I do it.

I thought it was bad to be Nick Miller but I have really embraced it. I have learned to fix things myself. Probably not the way they should be fixed but close enough. Where is the fun in fixing something forever? Part of the fun is seeing how long it will hold and coming up with the next idea to fix it. I like not caring what others think about me. I going to be me and if you do not like it, deal with it. As Weezer wuld say “if you don't like it, you can shove it. But you don't like it, you love it”. That is me, if you do not like who I am I do not care but admit it you like how crazy I am.

I take my job serious enough. I do my work and I do it well or at least well enough that I do not think I am going to be fired soon. I do keep my energy there light and airy to make it more fun. Working is a little like prison. You do the crime of spending money and then you do the time of working.

Here is the thing though. I am the person who is always there. Which is fine because you know where to find me. And that is why I am Nick Miller

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.
