I hate to be a cynic, but I don't like Valentine's Day, and I don't think I'm alone on this. I know it's supposed to be all about love, chocolate, and romance which sounds great in theory. However, sometimes the pressure of the holiday gets in the way of the love, Walgreen's is out of heart shaped chocolates, and your romantic night gets ruined because you can't get a reservation. Whether you're single, or in a relationship, Valentine's Day isn't everyone's favorite holiday. Here are 12 times Valentine's Day was the worst holiday told to you by Bachelor contestants.


1. When your significant other is way more excited about the holiday than you are.

The pressure is on.


2. When your roommate thinks Valentine's Day merits loud sex.

And so do our neighbors.


3. When your friend comes back from her romantic night and tells you all about it.


4. When you receive awfully cheesy gifts that you have to pretend to like.

Oh, this stuffed bear holding a stuffed heart will come in such handy...never.


5. When your not dating anyone and the holiday just reminds you how alone you are.


6. When your one crazy single friend tries to get all the single people she knows to celebrate being single so she feels better about her singleness.

As she screams "Love is a myth."


7. When you forget how awful dating is and agree to go on a date with someone new because, hey it's Valentine's Day, that's what you're supposed to do right? No, wrong!

I think I'm looking at one.


8. When Victoria Secret is having a huge Valentine's Day sale on bras and you want to get one, but then realize no one will ever see it.


9. When you just started seeing someone and don't know what they expect out of you on this dreadful holiday.


10. When people ask you what you did for Valentine's Day and all you did was eat six hot pockets and watch every Nicholas Sparks movie ever made.


11. When there's all this pressure to say and do nice things for your significant other.


12. When your significant other wants to try something weird and kinky because it's Valentine's Day.

Uh, maybe next year.


But really at the end of the day sometimes this awful holiday truly does a great job of reminding us all to appreciate the love in our lives.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my 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.
