16 Things You Can Do Instead Of Worrying About A Boy

In This Article:

Boys in college are typically more interested in having fun rather than settling down. While I'm the type of girl who is looking for a long-lasting love, every boy that I find seem to want more of a fling. But you know what, if you're like me and you feel like you're worried about finding a worthwhile boy, here is a list of things you can focus your energy on instead of boys.

1. Go on a bike ride.

Giphy

Literally biking is SO FUN!

2. Get lunch with friends.

Giphy

Call up some of your best friends and spend the afternoon together! Take cute pictures while you're all dressed up and the sun is shining so you can post them and he can eat his heart out, you're welcome.

3. Spend time with your sisters.

Giphy

Your sisters are there to support and love you! Go spend some time with them!

4. Exercise.

Giphy

Exercising doesn't just tone up your body, it also cleanses your mind and gives you a more positive mood change! Exercising is so good for you in so many ways!

5. Join a club.

Giphy

Getting involved is a great way to maximize your time and an amazing opportunity to make new friends! I have gotten myself involved in Student Government, Greek Life, and so many more organizations and I have never looked back!

6. Write.

Giphy

I've always found writing out how I'm feeling or what I am thinking about to be very therapeutic!

7. Read a book.

Giphy

BOOKS ROCK!!! HUFFLEPUFF FOREVER!!!

8. Pet a dog.

Giphy

A dog will love you just for being you! Dogs show you what true love really feels like by getting excited when they meet you and giving you little kisses when you're near them. Dogs are honestly sooooo much better than boys. #DogMom4Life

9. Start binge-watching a new show.

Giphy

One time I got ghosted by this guy I really liked and to help ease the pain and get my mind off of him, I binge watched How I Met Your Mother and now it's my favorite show!

10. Eat chicken nuggets.

Giphy

Chicken nuggets don't care if you aren't wearing makeup while you're with them and chicken nuggets will give you that warm feeling inside that a man won't.

11. Do some karaoke.

Giphy

There's nothing like getting your emotions out like singing Carrie Underwood at the top of your lungs!

12. Go shopping.

Giphy

Retail therapy always helps! ;)

13. Change your hair.

Giphy

Getting a haircut or a color change makes you feel like a new person and can really boost your self esteem!

14. Get a job.

Giphy

This probably sounds like the least fun thing to do on this list but actually I think it's a good way to pass the time. No phone, making new friends, and you're getting paid for it!

15. Watch a romcom.

Giphy

Dirty Dancing and How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days have always been my go-to movies.

16. Treat yo self to a night out.

Giphy

I always enjoy getting all dolled up to go to a fancy restaurant, so take yourself out on a nice date! It's a great way of showing appreciation and love for yourself rather than relying on someone else to do that for you.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.
