It’s Valentine’s Day again! For those of you in relationships, I’m sure some of you are still trying to figure out what to do for the big day. For those of you who look at this as just another day, I’m sure you’re looking for something to do. Here’s a list of things to brighten your days! :)

1. Go to a cafe.

Cafe’s are, like, the best. They’re quiet and warm and smell like coffee. They’re nice, relaxing places to hang out by yourself and a book, or with a couple friends. Also, there’s usually pastries, or real food. There are so many around, go find a new one to explore :)

2. Movie Day

Movie day = lazy day. I know it’s hard to do this at this point in the semester, but sometimes we need a break day. Pick out a whole bunch of your favorite movies, pop some corn, make some hot chocolate, put on your fuzziest socks and jammies and cuddle up!

3. Ice Skating

If you’re looking for an adventure, try ice skating. There are a couple of rinks around where you could try your hand at it. Well, your feet. Anyway, it’s a fun way to try something new, which can be difficult in winter time.

4. Go on a day trip

Valentine’s Day is on a Tuesday this year, but if you’re celebrating it on a weekend, or need a day off, go on a day trip over the weekend. There are plenty of small historical towns in the area, a whole load of cool places to see and adventures to go on. It’s winter, but there are still adventures to be had.

5. Try something new

I started playing racquetball about a month and a half ago, and man, it’s awesome. Go try something new this weekend, be it a new restaurant whose food comes from many lands away, a new drink at your favorite bar, or a new sport. It’ll be fun :)

6. Shopping

Shopping is always fun, so why not take a day to treat yourself with stuff you need and stuff you’ve been dying to purchase? Whether it’s by yourself or with the girls, being productive by getting things always feels good :)
