You Probably Won't Read This
James Sutton

I could write the most intriguing article or the most descriptive poem on the internet, but you probably wouldn't read it. I don't know why... probably because it is too long. If it isn't a list, it's blacklisted. Therefore, I find it even difficult to write this. What is the point of writing if nobody reads it. But, I wonder if, ironically, because my title explicitly says that you won't read it, you will actually read it. Funny how reverse psychology works. If you are reading this article, GREAT! :) If you haven't checked out my other works, you should. They are not like this one, but instead, they have a really deep meaning. They might take a little more than 5 seconds to read, so you might have to plan sometime in your schedule. :P Another good thing you can do if you read my other "articles" is to share them. See, as well as helping my ego, it also makes the Odyssey team better.

If you don't think sarcasm is funny, I'm sorry. You should probably not read some of my "articles." However, if you like romance, dry humor, or puns, you have come to the right (or should I say "write") place!

This is a very short expression of my tiredness. I'm tired of writing with no purpose. Maybe next time, I will make a list! 5 Reasons Why People Read Articles! It will probably be a hit. Then I will hit myself for conforming to this flow.

Maybe I will not write a list because it doesn't express fully my feelings that I hold inside. It doesn't show who I truly am. It just gives me the power to make people believe that life actually consists of lists, and limit other people's minds to a certain number of options they have to live life. People like limitations. It makes them feel safe. They don't like thinking about the fact that there are infinite amounts of ways life can go. There are probably more than five reasons that people read articles. However, putting it into five makes it feel easier.

The same reason we like lists are the same reason we have stereotypes. We, as humans, like to categorize people and things to make it easier to judge.

There we go! Now that I said something meaningful, you might not want to read this. Haha, too late!

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.

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.
