The Pros Of Being Single

Forget date night, and have a girl's night.

The Pros Of Being Single
HBO / Sex and the City

Every girl dreams of finding her own Prince Charming, and I blame Disney movies for that. And while yes it's okay to want this, it's also okay to be single. When you're on your own you learn a lot about yourself. You also can have a lot of fun. So grab your best friend, some rom-coms, wine and have yourself a girls night.

Reasons why being single isn’t as miserable as it sounds:


Freedom- you are on your own. You don't have to worry about reporting to anyone. There is nothing worse than a clingy or naggy boyfriend always wondering where you are, who you're with and what you're doing.


You can come home and enjoy that large glass of wine with no judgement from your significant other. I won't judge if you drink the whole bottle either...

You can also go out and drink with your girls. Nothing is better than embracing your single life than sharing it with your also single besties at the bar. Remember... girls night is the new date night.


Did I mention the options out there? There are plenty of cute singles out there, and you can chat with them all, like the hottie football player in your math class or the cute barista at Starbucks who knows your order.

Haven’t shaved your legs in a few days? Do you just hate shaving? No worries, own it.

If you don’t like sports you don’t have to pretend you do, and you definitely won't have to watch any. Go team go!

You can have guy friends without the all of the jealousy and T Swift like rage. Because really, who still believes guys and girls cannot just be friends...

So there you have it ladies, forget date night and plan a girls night. Friends are forever, boyfriends aren't. Single is more fun.

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.

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.
