Why I Hate Girls Who Say They Hate Girls
Mean Girls

Ladies, wake up. It's time to stop this.

What happened to us? Where did we go wrong? Why did we trade in our Lisa Frank backpacks and sharing our crayons with stabbing each other in the back? Why is it okay for another woman to dislike me because I'm a successful woman? Why do I scroll through Twitter every day and see someone tweet, "I HATE GIRLS"?

Okay, first of all, I'm really sorry for whatever this girl did to you. Really. I'm sure it was quite terrible and is totally going to affect your life forever, but really? Twitter? You took it to Twitter? Why?

I am guilty of the hatred, too. I have talked some mad smack about some of my girl friends before, but I never went as far as to say that "I hate girls." When I see someone saying "I hate girls," I only see a cry for attention. Get over it. Start loving your fellow woman, because women are really the only ones who truly understand what it means to be a woman. Do you think a guy is ever going to understand your mind as well as you do? Do you think that anyone else but your girl friends will actually look forward to willingly sitting on your couch and eating an entire pint of Ben & Jerry's and binge watch Friends with you?

I can't hate a girl for being a girl. I can only hate a girl for the wrong things she has done to me or someone I love (and even then, hate is a really strong word). Basically, when you say "I hate girls" on Twitter (or anywhere), that's a red flag. All that says is that you choose not to get along with other girls because you're still wanting attention from guys (maybe this is a generalization). Who are you trying to impress? I bet you only get along with guys too, right? Because there's "less drama"? Another red flag. That probably means that you cause drama. Hey, don't get me wrong, I love all my guy friends. In fact, that's all I used to have, and then I realized how dumb that was because girls are awesome. Like really awesome. Come on!

Guys aren't always going to have your back. Being in a sorority taught me to always count on my sisters before I ever count on a guy because "Friends are FoReVeR and guys are WhAtEvEr!!!" Okay, but for real, if you hate on all the girls out there, all you'll have is guys, and I promise, they will pick their guy friends over you any day. That's a hard truth to swallow, but it's so true.

We live in a society today where women are put down every day. The more that we as women do it to each other, the easier it is for a man to do it to us, too. So, ladies, wake up!

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.
