The Ultimate Valentine's Day Gift Guide, Because Showing Love To Your S.O. Shouldn't Be Stressful

Here are the five classic gifts to show your valentine some love this Valentine's Day.

1. Gift a box of chocolates.

This one is a classic, and who doesn't love chocolate? Run to your nearest grocery store and get your valentine a great tasting box of chocolates, and don't get the cheap stuff! This is a great idea if your significant other loves sweets and is just a bit into the cheesy presents around this time. If your valentine isn't a fan of chocolate, don't sweat it and go over to the Valentine's Day section. There are so many other goodies and treats they may like.

2. Try a personalized bouquet.

Who doesn't love flowers? I feel like this is such an underrated gift idea. Flowers are the perfect way to brighten up your Valentine's Day. Whether it's roses or daisies, a bouquet is a classic go-to. Get their favorite color or favorite type. To make the bouquet even more special, buy smaller sets of flowers and put them together yourself. If you really want to get into their heart, go out to a garden and hand pick the flowers yourself.

3. You can't go wrong with chocolate covered strawberries.

I have been seeing people make their own chocolate covered strawberries all over my feed these days, and I just want to say they look so delicious! There are so many tutorials and techniques out on the internet. I think this a great gift idea that your valentine will love. Whether you do it yourself for your valentine or buy them from a store, chocolate covered strawberries are definitely on my list this year. You could also do this with any other fruit your valentine may like as well. Or even cover them in a healthier coating, like yogurt.

4. Buy a stuffed bear.

I know we have all seen that huge teddy bear at our nearest Target. Let's just say that bear has been calling my name, and I hope my boyfriend gets it for me this year. I am pretty sure most people are hoping to take home a cute stuffed animal this Valentine's Day, because let's be real, who doesn't want one? Get your valentine a stuffed animal they'll love this year. Trust me, this is one you can't go wrong with.

5. Write them a love note.

A handwritten letter is something that would make me just melt! Writing a heartfelt note to your valentine will make them feel really special. This is a great way for your valentine to be reminded of how you feel towards them and will always keep it. This can be a really sentimental note or even a friendly and funny one. Either way, a love note or Valentine's Day card is a cute and thoughtful gift.

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?

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.
