10 Things That Happen When You're a Science Major
giphy.com

Being a science major is actually awesome, but sometimes we find ourselves asking: "Am I seriously this crazy to be in this major?" After short consideration, we always come to the conclusion that: "I must be!"

1. You quickly realize that you don't have a life anymore.

Work, work, work, work, work, work....that's all you ever do anymore, whether it's studying, lab reports, or worksheets for your six different classes.

2. When you begin to think you have a life (even for a day), you remember that the next lab report is due in three days.

Crap! Just when you think you're catching a break, your major comes back to bite you in the ass and remind you that there's work to be done.

3. You consider changing your major at least 5 times...a day


4. Every time you start to study for a science exam, a part of you dies at the same time.

5.You end up talking yourself back into loving your major and you get a boost of confidence for a day.


6. Your friends begin to wonder if you're mentally stable.


You've developed the crazy eyes of a science major, and your roommates begin to hear you talking to yourself like there are two people in the room.

7. You start to wonder if the chemicals you're working with in lab could possibly kill you.


8. You realize that they can in fact kill you and you start to feel like a mad scientist.


Don't deny it, sometimes in lab you feel like a total badass when it comes to chemical reactions and making mini explosions happen at your very will and desire (even though you sort of have to in order to pass the course).

9. Taking three-hour chemistry labs makes you appreciate lunchtime more and more.


If you've ever decided to skip lunch and get a bite to eat after you get out of lab, don't make that mistake again! Nothing is worse than sitting in lab for hours straight with a grumbling stomach.

10. You aced the test you studied 10 hours for and you do a 5-minute-long happy dance.


Nothing feels better than getting an awesome grade for being such a diligent science student, keep up the good work!

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.
