10 Signs that You are Ready to go Back to School
Red Alert Politics

With internships and summer jobs winding down, there are only mere weeks left before the school year begins. Unlike when we were in high school and we dreaded the first day of a new school year, most of us have been counting down the days until college move in since we moved out. Here are 10 signs that you are ready to go back to school.

1. You’ve started to treat your younger siblings like pledges because you can’t wait for recruitment to start. 

2. You started packing even though you don’t leave for another three weeks. 

3. Everyone in your group text is already planning the first-night-back pregame. Who is getting the chaser? Where are we pregaming? What frat do we want to go to first? 

4. You miss tailgating so much that you start making excuses to do it. Family barbecues, lunch with your friends or Grandma’s birthday. Nothing says Happy 80th Granny like shot-gunning a beer with her.

5. You fill up large Ziploc bags with expensive wine so you can slap the bag.

6. You chug your parents' Grey Goose from the bottle, pretend it’s the really cheap vodka you drink at school and chase it with a sugary orange soda, also straight from the bottle.

7. At the slightest sound of music, you immediately find the nearest elevated surface to dance on.  

8. You miss doing walks of shame (or strides of pride).

9. You really miss getting hyped for your school’s sports, so you go to your little siblings’ games dressed head-to-toe in their colors and scream at the 10-year-olds. 

10. You have already started to text last semester's hook up so you can lock down a guaranteed welcome-back-to-college hookup.

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.
