To be totally honest, Lost interest in Valentines Day not too long after I got into middle school, once class parties transitioned into having to spend the day surrounded with annoying couples AND having to go to school on top of it all, the holiday lost all of its appeal. But, as a college student, I've learned to be a little less bitter, and that there are other ways to enjoy Valentines day, So, here are some ideals for all of the other single fangirls out there.

1.Get all of that extra work done
If you're anything like me, you have a major procrastination problem. But if you want some time to spend to yourself on Valentines day, all of that stuff needs to get done. Stressing over neglected responsibilities while trying to relax is never a good way to spend your time, trust me, you'll thank yourself later.
2. Change into something comfy.
Unless my classes get cancelled, I'm gonna be fairly busy on the 14th. Chances are, a lot of you will be too. So when you finally get home for the day, the best thing to do would be to put on your favorite lounging clothes. Refuse any friends who want you to go out, once you're in your comfy clothes, you gotta stay put.
3. Get your favorite foods.
Personally, I'm gonna be loading up on the pizza, chocolate, tea, and pellegrino. Calories don't count on holidays after all. Make sure you have all of the delicious snacks you could possibly want for the evening.
Also, If you're going to be celebrating with friends, pooling together large amounts of food to share during a movie marathon is always a good ideal.
4.Pick out what you will nerd out over
Books, movies, whatever you want. I'm going to be reading Outlander myself. Which is a very long book, so that's probably all I'll need for the evening. But if you plan on watching a movie, or reading a book that is much shorter, I would recommend having a few options. Romance stories are typical for the holiday, but if that's not your thing, its not required.
5. Relax for the rest of the night
You've got your work done, you've got food, you've got entertainment. Enjoy it, spend some time focusing on the stuff you want to do, not the stuff you have to do.
