In this generation, people are working harder and harder every day. They are working full-time, getting an education, volunteering, and so much more. So, it is an understandable that we find ourselves neglecting our own needs, including taking the time to sit back, relax, and have some fun.

As a woman, there is nothing I love more than having a delightful girls' night out with friends and family to unwind and take time for myself. Spending time with the people who make you happy will allow you to feel relieved. Having supportive friends and family members to go out with is a perfect way to vent and release all of the stress off of your chest.

One thing that I like to do during my girls' night out is grabbing dinner and a couple of drinks and talking the night away. I, especially love meeting up with my girlfriend who I have not seen in a long time. It is a great way to reconnect and tell stories. Bonds are built and strengthened. Plus, who can deny delicious food and drinks?

Another great thing to do for a girls' night is out is going to a spa or getting your hairs and nails done. This is a great way to rejuvenate the body. This is a great way to relax if you have a job lifting heavy objects or where you are moving around extensively. Massages are a great way to loosen up tight muscles. Manicures and pedicures are a nice way to feel feminine and pampered. Going to the hair salon welcomes change, and having someone massage your scalp is the most relaxing sensation a woman can ever experience.

Going out dancing is another great girls' night out date. It is a great way to relieve stress because you are actively moving around. You are dancing away the pain and exhaustion of everyday life. For some people, dancing with someone you know and are comfortable with is a great way to blow off steam and build your confidence.

Although some people may find it immature, others may agree that having a classic sleepover is a great way to have fun with your best friends. We did it when we were young girls. We did it when we were teenagers, but even as adults, there is nothing wrong with having a sleepover with your loved ones. At an adult sleepover, people can spend the night in drinking margaritas, painting their nails, and making DIY crafts from Pinterest.

Every girl deserves a girls' night out, whether it be going out and grabbing a drink or spending the night painting each other’s nails while watching their favorite romantic comedy. Take the time to treat yourself. You are beautiful, and you deserve it!

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.
