Being single is always fun, especially when you're 20 and it's summer vacay.

There are many reasons why I personally enjoy being single in the summer and here's a few of them:

1. You're not tied down.

Don't get me wrong, I love being able to come home to someone or have someone there to talk to about my day. However, there's something so liberating about not having to worry about a significant other. Being able to do whatever, whenever, with whoever you want is exciting.

2. There's more opportunity for spontaneity.

No one to answer to, be free and spontaneous with your girlfriends. Summer 2017 adventures to come.

3. You have more "girl time."

When you have a boyfriend, you find yourself getting wrapped up in them and your relationship. you tend to stop hanging out with your friends as much. Being single allows you to have copious amounts of girl time. I find that I spend A LOT of time with my girlfriends and my mom, which is so so important.

4. You have time for yourself.

I don't think there's anything more important than taking care of yourself and really focusing on what makes you happy.

5. You get to meet new people.

Being single means you're ready to mingle! You can create all new relationships with new people and the summer is the best time to do that.

6. You save money.

Only having to focus and worry about yourself usually leads you to saving money. You're not always out spending on your man or helping him split the bill. I noticed I wasn't spending as much money when I'm single. Especially with it being summer, gotta have that spending money!

7. It gives you time to figure out what kind of person you want to be with.

When you're single and dating, you get the chance to meet different people and gives you the opportunity to try and figure out what you do and do not want in a partner.

8. There's also more family time.

Not spending time with my boyfriend gives me more family time now that it's summer and I'm not in school.

9. You don't have to worry about a relationship when school gets back in.

Once summer ends, you can start the new semester ready to start fresh!

10. You have way more fun.

Being single is always more fun than being tied down. More room for adventure and spontaneity.


To those who have had a hard time figuring out how to enjoy being single, I hope my few reasons gave you a little bit a confident boost to kill the single game!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
