Every Valentine's Day is special in my book. These are five free things that can make the day even more memorable!

1. Cards

In 2020, Valentine's Day cards are completely underrated! Send/give your partner a sweet love note in a card to show your affection. They last forever, so they can keep them for years to come. Plus, you don't have to spend money- grab some scraps of paper and put together an adorable hand made gift.

2. Do a chore they hate.

Whether it's cooking, dishes, or laundry, doing an extra chore that's not on your list can really show how much you appreciate and love your other half. Regardless of how long it takes, it often means the most when you put in the elbow grease and knock out something they hate to do.

3. Give them a massage

After a long day, nothing feels better than laying down in your bed or on the couch and getting comfy and cozy with your spouse. Adding a massage to the mix spices it up and relaxes them (perfect for couples that love gifts relating to time together). Adding a movie/music, essential oil, and kisses can really amp up the environment and relay the love.

4. Be the chef

Find snacks from your house and create a "gourmet" meal together as if you were a contestant on a famous cooking show. Pretend that you are the judge, then use the same ingredients and be the chef! Never use foods you must purchase, instead opt to try and create from what you have.

5. Commit an act of service together

Find a local food bank, a soup kitchen, a nursing home, or head to some local nonprofit and see how you can help them out for Valentine's Day (or any day!!) with your sweetheart for some quality time together that will make a BIG impact. If you and your partner are crafty, look back at option one and make cards for those alone in hospitals and hand them out.

Those are five free things to do this Valentine's Day with your significant other!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
