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.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
