You won't believe it.

You’ve probably seen us at some point during the heat of the day, sweat glistening off our shoulders in the summer sun, one foot in front of the other, panting for air, pounding pavement as we round the corner. You were most likely sitting in your air-conditioned car at the red light before you rolled your window down to call out to us, or maybe walking on the other side of the street when you saw us *gasp* decked out in just a sports bra. Okay, okay. You caught us. Guilty as charged. At last, I’ll admit- that it really is all for you, baby.

Finally, here are women’s confessions as to why we really choose to wear only a sports bra for our workouts:

  1. We were hoping that we would see you.
  2. Just really wishing that we could get honked at. That’s our favorite.
  3. We want to see how many stares and whistles we can get, because we truly enjoy feeling like an object for only your viewing pleasure.
  4. To show off these rock hard abs. (Because I don’t eat pizza every day.)
  5. It’s way more comfortable than wearing a t-shirt or tank top.
  6. Because we squealed, "This super sexy undergarment will make him weak in the knees!" as we pulled out our full coverage, maximum support sports bra.
  7. We don’t feel validated, appreciated, or complete unless you catcall us. If you don’t, the run wasn’t even worth it.
  8. We were secretly hoping you’d gawk at our breasts.
  9. Because we’re not worried about how many miles we get in, just as long as we can make your day.
  10. Alright, honestly we were just pretending to exercise- we are really only out here trying to attract our future husbands.

Raise your hand if you got any of them right. Then use it to slap yourself, because…

Reasons women truly, really, actuallyrun in a sports bra:

  1. Because it’s hotter than (insert explicit language here) outside. (And maybe also because we don’t want to do even more laundry.)

So please forgive us, from the bottom of our bosoms, that we ever tried to exercise just for our physical health and well being. We realize this was stupid and selfish. Please also excuse us for giving you the finger next time you harass us on the street. You don’t have to do a double take- we promise it was all for you.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
