No Bae, No Problem!

It's Valentine's Day and the pressure is on. It's only February, the second month of the year and there's already been so many memes about having a "bae." Too bad you're single as a Pringle at this point, right? Nope! No need to lose all hope. Valentine's Day isn't only for people in love. I've come up with 10 ideas for you to spread love to yourself and others on Valentine's Day. Enjoy!

  1. Take your age, whatever that number is, write down that many factors about yourself that you love.
  2. Have a Netflix and chill by yourself- what better way to bring in this lovey dovey day than to cuddle up to your favorite blanket and all of your favorite snacks.
  3. Treat YOself- you know that really nice bag you've been wanting? Buy it. Fellas, that watch or shoes? Buy it. Put it in a Valentine's Day themed bag and call it a day.
  4. See a movie with a friend!
  5. Cook dinner and try a new recipe.
  6. Have a gift exchange with a group of friends or small road trip.
  7. Buy gifts for family members and put them in their room, car, office, etc. before they get there.
  8. Go on a date- a date with someone you've never been on a date with. Even if it's awkward, you'll live. AND you'll be able to laugh about it later.
  9. Get organized- plan some goals, clean your room, clean your car.
  10. Eat all the Valentine's Day candy you want. Eat whatever you want.
  11. Do NOT allow yourself to become sad or upset about being single. This day isn't for you to think about your ex and the past. Don't sulk.

But most of all, have fun!

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
