In today's day and age, everyone has the subconscious idea of FOMO, or Fear of Missing Out. Sometimes though it is okay not to do anything, just lay in bed and watch Netflix all day, or as they say in "Parks and Rec," "Treat yo self." In the fast paced environment of our lives sometimes you just need to have a day to yourself.

Here some ways you can just have a day to yourself;

1. Lay in Bed and Watch Netflix

Sometimes you just need to lay down and watch mind numbing television, or finish that series that has been sitting on your recently watched list for months. So pop some popcorn, crack a drink, get your favorite fuzzy PJs on, and wrap up in your favorite blanket.

2. Head to the Mall

Everyone thinks you need to go to the mall with your best friends, but sometimes you need to go by yourself. You get to spend the time in the shops you want to, and don't have to wait for people in the shops you don't want to be in. It gives you a chance to relax and shop at your own pace.

3. Go get Your Nails Done

People always think they need to go get their nails done with others, but lets be honest you don't even sit next to each other and don't even talk them. So ditch the friends and go by yourself get a mani-pedi even! Even guys can get their nails done

4. As Dona and Tom Say "Treat Yo Self"

You have some saved up money, or any money in general? Take it and treat yo self. We always worry about the future and saving money for it, but we forget to sometimes spend money on ourselves and treat ourselves.

So no matter how faced paced our lives get and how much we get caught up in the lives of others. Just remember always make time for yourself.

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?
