14 Ways To Celebrate Valentine's Day WITHOUT A Date

https://www.pexels.com/photo/beverage-chocolate-cocoa-coffee-301650/

Valentine's Day can be an annoying holiday for anyone without a significant other. But just because you don't have a partner doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to celebrate. Take a look at the list I've compiled to find a way to celebrate Valentine's Day this year without having a date.

1. Bring it back to elementary school and break out the Valentine's

Who didn't love getting Valentine's from their classmates back in elementary school? Tattoos, candy, stickers, and fun little cartoon princesses. What more can a girl ask for?

2. Wear pink

It might not be a Wednesday, but you can celebrate Valentine's Day with your wardrobe this year.

3. Treat yourself to a night out with your friends

Go out on the town and have a girl's night! No boys tonight.

4. Chocolate

Who says you can't buy your own chocolate?

5. Pop some popcorn and turn on the romantic comedies

Giphy

Grab your friends. Grab some snacks. Grab some movies. It's time for a romcom.

6. Ice cream

For when the chocolate just isn't getting the job done.

7. Call your parents and tell them you love them

Giphy

Love doesn't have to be romantic. Call your parents and tell them how much they mean to you.

8. And while you're at it call your grandparents too.

Giphy

Your grandparents love to hear from you and you probably don't call them enough as it is. Spread the love and call them too.

9. Brownies

Brownies are another great dessert food that are helpful for celebrating Valentine's Day.

10. Cook yourself a fancy dinner

Treat yourself with a nice fancy dinner. Look up your favorite recipe online and give it your best shot. Of course don't forget to cook it with love.

11. Have a dance party

Get your friends together and spend the night dancing to the greatest love songs of all time.

12. Cupcakes

Everybody knows that cupcakes are way better than regular cake, which means they are a way better way to celebrate Valentine's Day than regular old boring cake.

13. Get some flowers

Giphy

Who doesn't love roses? Plus when everybody asks who sent them to you you can totally answer just say that Zac Efron bought them for you.

14. Cut out some paper hearts and use them to decorate your room

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.
