There comes a time in everyone's life where you are broker than broke and never buy and/or do anything for yourself. I know Christmas was just here a month ago, but still, chances are, you blew through those gift cards on things like groceries, shampoo, and some bobby pins, because I know I seem to lose them as soon as I buy them. If you are smart, you use those gift cards wisely and attempt to spread them out, but then you walk into Target and spend it all in one trip.

Now, weeks later, you find yourself broke once again, and it can be the saddest day of your life when you think you have $20 in your bank account but you really only have, like, two bucks. It sucks living paycheck to paycheck and never doing anything nice for yourself at all. Sometimes, you just need a little retail therapy, or you need to go get your nails done at the cheap place ten minutes away from campus. The reality of it all is that sometimes, you just need to treat yo' self. Here is a few reasons why you should.

1. You have not even gone to the mall in weeks because you have the fear that you might buy something that is more than one dollar.

2. If buying off the dollar menu at McDonald's gives you anxiety, you need to go ahead, go out, and get yourself a nice meal for once.

Olive Garden is my treat yo' self meal of choice.

3. Pink is having their "seven for $27" sale on underwear.

Clearly, you need to go invest in some, because who does not love new underwear?

4. You have not dyed your hair in months and your roots are starting to show hella bad.

5. If you got an A on a test you thought were going to get a F on, then you should most certainly treat yo' self to something nice.

6. You finally dumped that loser of a boyfriend all of your friends hated.

You should go buy yourself a new outfit or a new pair of shoes, or both; whatever floats your boat.

7. If classes get canceled due to Storm Jonas, then you should go treat yo' self to expensive hot chocolate at Starbucks.

Thank the lord you did not have chem class today. Even Storm Jonas wants you to treat yo' self.

8. You went a whole week without going off on someone at work.

That is a huge reason to treat yo' self.

9. If you had a bad day and not even a "One Tree Hill" marathon can cheer you up, then you need to drop everything you are doing at the moment and go treat yo' self.

10. Most importantly, because you are missing home like crazy.

Treat yo' self to something that reminds you of home, because your mom would want you to.

So, clearly, these are all fantastic reasons as to why you should treat yo' self. The question is, will you?
