11 Thoughts Single People Have The Week Before Valentine's Day
Tumblr

There is about one week until Valentine's Day, and you see red and pink anywhere you look. Restaurants are now taking reservations, pizza places are advertising their limited time heart-shaped pizza, and your coupled friends are stressing out about what to get their significant other. The only plans you have so far for this Valentine's Day are probably ordering pizza and binge watching Netflix with all of your single friends. Here are some thoughts that are probably running through your head as you try to survive this week:

1. Wow. Where did all of these couples come from?

They are literally everywhere.

2. Can I still give my friends some Valentine's Day cards?

I hope they like homemade ones.

3. Why did I ever turn that guy down?

Is it too late now to say sorry?

4. What should I do while my friends are all on their dates?

Sing along to Adele. Blast Taylor Swift's music. Eat a box of chocolates. Repeat.

5. Wow. Please stop with the PDA.

It's everywhere you go. At school, at the mall, at restaurants. Sorry, but I don't think there's a way of escaping this part of Valentine's Day.

6. Does anyone actually need a stuffed animal that big?

7. OK, maybe they do.

As my friend would say, it's like a boyfriend but doesn't talk.

8. Maybe my parents will offer to pay for my dinner.


It's still free dinner. Am I right?

9. Better yet, maybe someone will actually ask me out to dinner this year.

No negative attitude here.

10. Actually, I don't care.

I mean, it's their loss.

11. At least chocolates will be on sale next week.

Time to gain 15 pounds!

So if you're alone this Valentine's Day, just remember that you are not the only one. Also, if you do have a date this year, be a good person and bring your leftover dinner food and chocolate home to your single roommate. Or you can be a great friend and buy them dinner and chocolates. Happy February 14th! XOXO

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
