Singles Awareness Day has finally passed and now it is time to bear the fruits of our labor, fellow comrades. Valentine’s Day can bring a mix of emotions, from loneliness to bitterness to slashing your dumb ex’s dumb tires. For those of us that don’t have anyone to buy us candy, the “holiday” can be a bit unbearable. But alas, the Valentine’s Day Sale is upon us, and it’s time to head out and buy your favorite sale candy. Go forth and spend, my singles.

Here’s what your favorite sale candy says about you:

Heart-shaped Milk Chocolates

You’re a minimalist. You enjoy the simple things in life; milk chocolate, cheap candy, chomping on hearts pretending they’re real. Try breaking them in half first for some extra fun.

Heart-Shaped Dark Chocolates

You like your chocolates like your love life: dark. Dark chocolate is beneficial for your mind and your health because of the antioxidants it contains, so be sure to eat plenty of it before you plan your revenge against that guy or gal that broke your Sith Lord heart. Oh, and if you eat dark chocolate consistently, you’ll outlive them.

Small Heart-Shaped Box of Variety Candy

You like a little fun, but you know how to control yourself. Extravagant gestures aren’t your thing, so you like to show yourself a little love without going overboard. This is the Volvo of chocolates; safe, affordable, and probably no one will want to steal it.

Big Heart-Shaped Box of Variety Candy

You know how to treat yourself and you know nobody else is gonna do it for you. You grab life by the peanut clusters and don’t take “nougat” for an answer. You’re not afraid to drop a pretty penny on a pretty dime such as yourself. Make sure to bag up those heinous orange-filled chocolates and leave them on your ex’s doorstep.

Ghirardelli Variety Box

Wow, someone must have really done that heart dirty to be splurging on the ‘Delli. Ghirardelli is what Elon Musk eats when he needs some sugar, and what makes you so different from the smartest billionaire alive, goshdarnit. You have a taste for the finer things in life and won’t settle for generic store brands. Call your bank ahead of time and tell them it’s not a fraudulent charge, it’s just Valentine’s Day.

Marshmallow Filled Heart

Really? It’s 25 cents, you deserve better.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
