Being young… It’s great isn’t it?

College…. The best times of your life.

Your 20’s…. Time to make some mistakes and also make some memories.

Some girls live it up, and party as hard as they can in their 20’s. YOLO, right?

Having a night out with your friends can be great, but let’s be real… It’s not for everyone.

For me, I would much prefer to spend the night in with my man, cuddled up watching Netflix. For those living the single life, you could spend the nights with your family, friends, or maybe even your pet! I know a few crazy cat ladies who prefer a good night in with their feline friends. But seriously, it’s incredibly enjoyable to put on your PJ’s, throw your hair in a bun, and call it a night. Let yourself be free of your weekly obligations and pour yourself a glass of wine. Some of you may be shaking your heads wondering why I’m such a square. Being in a long-term relationship has definitely made an old lady out of me. Granted that I’m not as rambunctious as I may have been at one time, I’ve found that I take pleasure in the little things in life these days.

Being an introvert, I’m not crazy about loud drunk people in my face and loud music in my ears. I’d rather relax, I’d rather make the most out of my time. With that being said, perhaps you feel that you are getting the most out of your time by living your life to the fullest, and pushing yourself hard on your weekends off. That’s great for you, but from my personal perspective, it’s certainly not for me. Of course, EVERYONE deserves a couple crazy weekends.

I can count how many times I’ve been to a club on one hand… Actually, let’s be real, I can count on one finger how many times I’ve been. The funny part is, I’m totally okay with that. I enjoy going out for a drink from time to time, or meeting the girls for lunch or dinner. That’s basically the full extent of it. When you work and go to school, sometimes you just want to chill. We have to do whatever it is that floats our boats. For me, it’s a quiet night in. Plus, who has money to spend on an eight dollar shot? Take it from me, sometimes buying a bottle and inviting your girls over is a lot more gratifying than blowing all your money and having your creepy Uber driver ask for your number. Even better, order a pizza and cuddle up with the person you love. Do whatever makes your heart happy, and always remember to stop and smell the roses.
