Don't have a date this Valentine's Day? No worries! You can spend the day treating yourself. Even if you do have a special someone this Valentine's Day, you can still make some special time for yourself. Just because Valentine's Day is advertised that you have to spend the day with a date, loving yourself and taking time out for yourself in equally as important. And what a great day to do so!

There are so many different ways to treat yourself this Valentine's Day. And you can also make special days for yourself any other days of the year!

1. Take a relaxing bath

Soak in a nice bath for an hour or so. It can be very relaxing, especially if you use a bath bomb, bath salts, or bubbles. To make it more relaxing, you can dim the lights, put some of your favorite music on, or read a book or magazine. Sounds like paradise, right?

2. Buy yourself a present

There is nothing wrong with buying yourself a present! Buy some nice clothes, a pocketbook, anything you want! You could even take yourself on a shopping spree, which can also be fun!

3. Indulge in sweets

Have some dessert! Have some cake, ice cream, chocolate, or make yourself something special to indulge in.

4. Cook a delicious dinner

You definitely don't have to cook a nice dinner for two. Cook for yourself! Make yourself something delicious that you love, and the best part is you don't have to share!

5. Sleep in/take a nap

If you don't have to be anywhere in the morning, sleep in some extra hours! Sleep is the best thing you could do for yourself. If you are busy during the day, squeeze in a nice nap to recharge!

6. Pamper yourself

Give yourself your own spa day! Get some face masks, lotions, even paint your nails. If you wanted to, you can book yourself a spa treatment. Everyone needs a day at the spa!

7. Get your friends involved

Make your Valentine's Day dates your friends! Get your friends together to indulge in food, relax, and gossip. Those are the best days in my opinion!

8. Go out to a park/nature preserve

If its a nice day to be outside, take some time out and go to your local park, or anywhere outside. This is the best place for some peace and quiet, and to just be alone with yourself. Being out in nature can be very soothing.

9. Meditate

If you really want some relaxing time, take a few minutes out to meditate. Close your eyes, take deep breaths, and have calming music in the background. Plus, if Valentine's Day is stressing you out, this is a great way to calm yourself down!

10. Eat chocolate!

You don't need someone to buy you a box of chocolates, buy one for yourself and enjoy!

11. Send Valentine's to family/friends

Show your family and friends a little love by getting them valentines. They will really appreciate it, and maybe you'll get something in return!

12. Pet a puppy

Puppy love is the best love of all! If you have a puppy or dog, make some cuddle time!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.

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.
