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!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
