11 Thoughts You Have When Deciding Whether Or Not To Go Out For Valentine's Day As A Lazy Person

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, the pressure to come up with plans grows with every premature commercial I see about chocolate or jewelry.

As a perpetually lazy and typically anxious person, the concept of long waits and crowded restaurants is not enticing. But the idea of a nice dinner with the guy I love is also tempting. A real Sophie's Choice if you ask me.

But the more I look up fancy restaurants the more I think about getting take-out, sitting around in sweats, throwing on Parks and Rec, and just enjoying time with me SO. Here are 11 thoughts I have when trying to make Valentine's day as a lazy, homebody.

Looking up ~fancy~ restaurant menus and gagging because everything is either raw, slimy, or simply not chicken fingers

Thinking about avoiding lines and the cost and how smart of you that is

Thinking about dealing with overworked waitresses/waiters

Knowing that if you go out to eat, you will probably have to eat like an adult and order a salad

Again, thinking of the CROWDS

But hey, at least if you go out you can get drunk, but also you can do that at home

Thinking you reealllly should just stay in together

Because you know what, we deserve it

And you already know how good the take out is

And you definitely will have a guaranteed great time

But, it is Valentine's day and you can get dressed up and have fun out on the town... yep you're going out, embrace the crowds and enjoy!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
