Why Being Single Isn't That Bad

People always ask me where my boyfriend is, if I have one or when I'm going to find one. When I tell them I'm single and I'm proud, they always give me a look like what? Someone can be single and happy? Well, being single, you can do so many things and here's just a quick look into the single life.

Let your freak flag fly


You can do you — you don't have to continuously have to worry about what someone else is doing and vice versa. Time to go out, have a good time and do whatever you want to do.

You can flirt

Whether you're going out on a Friday night or sitting in class, you can flirt with that cute boy across the room with no regrets.

Farting in peace

You pass that gas and be proud.

Eat all you want

No shame in your game. No guy? No problem — eat all you want and have fun while doing it.

No one to bother you

You can actually have a life without your phone blowing up every 5 minutes wondering what you're doing, where you are and who you are with.

More money for yourself

Think of all the cash you'll be saving to spend on yourself! Just remember — TREAT YO SELF!!

No shaving

As a girl, I think it's our natural right to hate shaving. No guy=no reason to shave.

All the Netflix you could want

Being single is the perfect time to binge watch all your favorite shows or shows you want to watch. Get your pajamas on, put your feet up, and grab some popcorn.

Cuddling with your dog is better

Who needs a guy who complains about his arm hurting or your hair in his face?

Single Ladies is your jam

Beyonce know's what she's talking about.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
