12 Reasons It's OK To Be Single During The Holidays
Where To Get It

Don't stress, feel blessed! Cuffing season is among you but that's no reason to feel down about your relationship status. There are many reasons why being single throughout the holiday season is 110 percent acceptable...

1) You don't have to share your holiday treats.

You do not have to face the pressure of sharing your box of Ferrero Rocher Fine Hazelnut Chocolates. They are all yours.

2) You also don't have to share your holiday drinks.


3) You get to watch “12 Dates of Christmas” as many times as you want

It's Netflix’s way of saying “We’ve got your back, we’re not going anywhere.”

4) You don't have to buy a significant other some sort of lavish gift.

You just saved a bunch of money on Christmas gifts by switching to single.

5) You can take the money you save from buying a significant other a gift and buy yourself a gift.

6) Cuddling is overrated.

You know what no one ever complains about? Having the whole bed to themselves.

7) You can listen to as much or as little holiday music as you like.

No need to accommodate anyone's Christmas spirit.

8) You can sit back and enjoy the Christmas themed Tinder pick-up lines.

"Shouldn't you be sitting on top of the tree, angel?" Yikes.



9) You only have to worry about accommodating one schedule.

It's ME o'clock.

10) You have complete say over what type of holiday card you are going to send.

11) You can do more important things this holiday season.

Like lay around in your Rudolph onesie, stalking people on Instagram, and drinking eggnog.

12) Get in shape... Or don't.

It’s sweater season. No one can tell anyway.

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.
