Perks Of Being Single On Valentine’s Day

So you're single on Valentine's Day? Most people would think being all by your lonesome on the national day of love is such a tragedy. However, I have a little... okay, maybe a lot experience in this department, and it actually has its perks.

No gift buying.

Since your single, you don't have to buy gifts for anyone! No need to worry about rushing to the mall on a last minute’s notice (because yes, we all wait until the last minute) to buy diamond earrings for your girlfriend or some fancy watch for your boyfriend. Think of all the glorious money you will be saving and get to spend on yourself.


No overrated restaurants.

Who has time to call up the fanciest, most expensive restaurant in town and fuss with getting a table for two to only find out its been booked up for months when all we really want to do is lay on the couch in our PJ's, eat a box of chocolates, and watch a sappy movie.


Treat yo' self.

With all the money you get to save by not having to buy and gift for your significant other or a pricey dinner for two, you get to TREAT. YO. SELF. Go buy yourself those shoes you’ve been wanting or all the V-day chocolate your heart desires.


Sleep all day.

Because why not? You don't have anywhere to be or have anyone to please, so hit the snooze button and sleep your single worries away.


Galentine's Day

Leslie Knope is a real genius for coming up with this fantastic holiday. What’s Galentine’s Day? It’s a day for ladies to celebrate ladies (sorry guys). If you aren’t the only single gal on Valentine’s day spend the day with your friends and live it up. Go out, stay in, who cares, it’s just you ladies. Technically it’s February 13,but we can break the rules.

So Happy Valentine's Day to all you single guys and gals, may you not be alone forever!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
