8 Reasons Why I'm Single: As Told By Jess Day

Being single is A-Ok. Don't believe me? Just see what Jess Day has to say about being single.

1. I'm cool.


Really, though. I'm cool. I listen to different music, I eat interesting foods, I love art museums. I like cool things. And sometimes when you're cool, like me, people tend to not be into you. They can't deal with all the coolness. Especially if they're cool, too. It's like way too much cool for one couple to handle. And because i'm cool, I one-hundred-and-ten percent understand that.

2. I sing to myself ... a lot

In the car, the shower, sometimes in the grocery store. Basically, I'm always jamming out, whether I'm alone or with others. I'd like to think I'm doing the male population a favor by staying single.

3. To put it frankly, I'm batshit crazy.

Not even just towards males or relationships, but in ever aspect of my life. I'm crazy about working out. Crazy about getting good grades. Crazy (in love) with my dog. Basically, I'm a crazy person. And that tends to not work out too well in relationships. So I steer clear.

4. I can drink

It's a Tuesday and I've got nowhere to be until tomorrow at noon. I am going to have a drink. Or three. And no one can stop me.

I've noticed that, when you're in a relationship, you have to tend to your partner's wants and needs as well as yours. Sure, some of that is easy. But I want to do what I want to do. And I don't need another person holding me back from doing that.

5. I like being alone

Breakups suck. And when you've invested a lot into them, they suck even more. I'd prefer to stay alone and happy than run the risk of getting my feelings hurt over a boy again.

6. Public affection annoy me

PDA is not in my forte.

7. I have the hots for everyone.

And I'd really like to keep it that way. I want to be able to go out for Sunday brunch and look all I want at the males surrounding me. Maybe even go introduce myself. Having that opportunity always open is a nice way to live.

8. I'm really, truly blessed with being happy and being single.


Some people don't have the pleasure of loving themselves and the confidence to be happy about being single. I do, and I couldn't ask for much more out of life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
