The Revelations of a Math Student

So its 2016, not much has changed.

We smile, go to school; see it’s all ok.

The man on the tv, talks of weather and stocks,

While we bring on the lectures, and much of the talk,

Centered around math, who would have thought.

The numbers are fitting, together like pieces,

Fortunate enough, we have it all easy.

One problem we face, at any given time

Has an operator, mathematician, and everything's fine,

Because we know what to do, plug and chugs what they say,

But how do you do that, on this, a new day?

We are faced today, with exponential growth,

A sign of prosperity, in each and every, both

Subtractions of life, and sometime we add,

But the problem at large is still to be had.

We multiply, and divide, this country in two.

Ravenous vendors, for me and you.

We forget occam’s razor, in favor google

Instead of eliminate, we are frugal

Yet despite the odds, we cannot even

Take account, for what we were given.

A body to love, a neighbor to take.

Some bodies we judge, and others we hate.

But why does it limit, that we not set example,

Instead of irate, and all the mean tackle,

To fish out the judges, who make all the problems

Proliferate, and set the wrong idols,

For we are a people, of steady mind and no wash,

Until the day we stand, it's all the legs we will watch,

No bridging the gap, the hypotenuse,

The sin, and anger, in the small riemann misuse,

Of the american people, we’ve all become

Precociously aware, of what we’ve undone.

Civil liberties, right out the window.

No more integration, it’s all innuendo,

And although our struggles, might seem infinite,

Tomorrow will come and the sun will set.

We are the people, of the U.S. of A.

No president or congress, can say what we say,

That we are a variable, we represent

The indifference, the same, the human constant.

Take a note from math class, we can all solve,

The problems we have, with absolute resolve,

That we will continue, be nice to our neighbors,

To handle our sons, and all misbehaviour

For we do not stand, on the cusp of destruction,

When we the people, own all of the construction

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.
