13 Things I'd Rather Do On Valentine's Day Than Go On A Date

It's almost time for yet another Hallmark holiday. A day when our newsfeed is bombarded with sappy couples posts. As much as I love chocolate, here are quite a few things I'd much rather be doing than spending Valentine's Day on a sappy dates.

1. Watch Netflix in my pajamas

There's honestly not much better than getting super cozy under a bunch of blankets and binge-watching your favorite show. I'm not too interested in making room for another person or having to take into consideration what he might want to watch.

2. Order a pizza and eat the whole thing

Second to watching Netflix all day, I find it incredibly satisfying to order a pizza and silently pride myself on the ability to finish the whole thing. I don't really want to share so...

3. Go get half-apps

I'd rather spend time with a bunch of my single gal-pals eating half-apps and enjoying margaritas than going for an expensive dinner.

4. Send lame valentine's to friends

Every year, I live to find the newest hilarious valentine's floating around and sending them to the people who I know will appreciate them. Even better: when my friends know me well enough to send me the ones they know I'll love.

5. Go shopping

Especially the day after Valentine's Day when all the chocolate is half-price!

6. Buy myself chocolate

I know what I like and I know I'm fully capable of eating the whole box.

7. Go to the gym

Nothing like some productive empowerment to make me feel good.

8. Do homework

Because Valentine's Day is on a Wednesday and we're all good students.

9. Bake myself some cupcakes

Treat yo self.

10. Cuddle with my dog

Because honestly, no one gives better cuddles than my pup.

11. Spend time with my hedgehog

I just really want to hang out with my pets.

12. Drink wine

Not that I don't do that on any other given day, but it's just a little more satisfying on Valentine's Day.

13. Cry

I..It's just...never mind.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
