The holidays are upon us and these are some of the things that you experience as a single person:

1. Happy Couples

They are just. Everywhere during the holidays. It's like they like each other or something....

2. Seeing Cute Holiday Couple Pictures. EVERYWHERE.

We really just wish we could take those pictures. I mean, if we're third wheeling, we literally take the pictures.

3. Family Questions About Our Loneliness (I Mean Love Life)

Thank you, Aunt Sharron, for reminding me that "It's time for me to get out there" and that I'm a "marketable young man any girl would be lucky to date." I will be sure to hand my business card out at parties and small social gatherings.

4. Happy Couples

SO. MANY. HAPPY PEOPLE.

5. Being Offered to Third Wheel Constantly


Sure! But let me find a fellow single person to tag along because. No third wheels.

6. Watching Romantic Holiday Movies. By Yourself.

Nobody knows why the single person does this. But they do it anyway.

7. People Under the Mistletoe

This goes back to number 2. We. Wish.

8. Being the Only One Without a New Year's Kiss

We'll stick to the sparkling cider. Or Champagne. Or vomiting a little in our mouths.

9. Happy Couples

They say when you are in a relationship, you only see happy singles and when you are single you only see happy couples. They understated that last part.

10. Hanging Out With Your Dog Over Break Because You're the Only Single Friend

Who needs a relationship when you have a furry friend that can't refuse to watch a movie with you and costs no money?

11. Day Dreaming About Being in a Relationship During the Holidays

It happens to every single person, don't deny it.

12. Did I Mention, Happy Couples

The single crowd really is happy for our relationship counterparts, but that doesn't mean we can't be jealous of them. Happy Holidays to everyone, single, in a relationship or anyone in between!

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.

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.
