How To Have Fun When You're Single On Valentine's Day

So you're single on Valentines day, welcome to the club. There isn't anything particularly bad about being since on V day because well, that holiday isn't only about being with your significant other. It can also be about loving and appreciating your friends and family, because they also love too. But, I do know being single on that day kind of sucks, because it does feel lonely. Have no fear, however, here are some things you can do to entertain yourself on Valentines Day:

1. Treat yourself

We've all heard that famous phrase from Parks and Recreation, and you know what, Tom and Donna are right. Everyone deserves a day to treat yourself, so why not use Valentines Day as an excuse to do so.

2. Send love to your friends or family

Spend the day with them and remind them that they are loved too.

3. Do a "secret Valentine" with your friends

Kind of like secret santa only this time you'll be doing it on Valentines day.

4. Watch some movies with your celeb crush

Everyone needs some eye candy, even us single ladies.

5. Go to the movies

Either alone, or grab a group of friends, watch a Hollywood blockbuster after classes or work.

6. Have a Spa Day

If you can afford to go to an actual spa that is amazing, if not grab anything you'll need to have the best spa day at home.

7. Have a Foodie night

Eat all the food you want from pizza for dinner and an ice cream sundae for desert, it's the perfect day to eat how you want.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
