It's August and the first day of school is right around the corner.

Retailers are stocking their shelves full of school supplies for the upcoming year. Sometimes when seeing all of the school supplies together it's hard to analyze what you actually need and what you might need.

So before you go back-to-school shopping, make a list of everything you need. Depending on what classes you're taking, your supplies list may vary.

However, there are basic school essentials that everyone needs for their education. Here is my list of basic school essentials with recommendations.

1. A sturdy backpack

Some people get new backpacks every year and others get new backpacks when they need. Whatever the preference is, you'll want it to last until you're done with it.

2. Notebooks

The 5-subject notebooks are my go-to.

3. A planner

Get a planner and use it. Write down all of your assignments so you will always be aware of the due date.

4. Pens/ Pencils

For textbooks, assignments, or notes, a binder will keep all of your work organized and easily accessible.

6. Headphones

Headphones are an essential item for school. Listening to music while walking to class or doing homework makes the task a little more enjoyable.

8. Stapler

You can find a stapler almost anywhere, but if you have your own stapler, you won't have to search for one when you need it.

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.

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.
