5 Ways to Survive Valentine's Day if your Single

With Valentine's Day around the corner, a majority feel anxious over excited considering the fact that most of us are single. Well, Valentine's Day does not have to be all about hearts and love, it can be all about you! Here are 5 things you can do on Valentine's Day if you're single.

Invite all your girlfriends over and watch a scary movie

Nothing is better than being with your best friends, especially when your all in the same boat with your lack of a date on this "special" day. A scary movie just makes it all the better, keeping your mind off hugs and kisses and more on demons and ghosts.

Cook yourself dinner

Obviously, you don't want to go out to eat by yourself when everyone is head over heels in love around you. Look on Pinterest and find an extravagant and fun dinner idea and get to cooking. You can play some fun music and dance to the beat of the vegetable chopping.

Go shopping

Nothing is better than retail therapy! Shop 'til you drop, and I promise you that your lack of a valentine will not cross your mind at all. Buy the shoes and don't forget those sassy earrings.

Don't forget the SALE candy

After you have survived this awful holiday, indulge in chocolate hearts on top of chocolate hearts. Hit up Walmart and go crazy, you deserve it!

Go to a fun workout class

While working out isn't the most fun thing in the world, going to a Zumba class or kickboxing will get you hyped up and take out that frustration on your demise against Valentine's Day. Get some friends to go with you and get some laughs out of it too!

Even though Valentine's Day is literally every negative adjective in the book, it is only a 24-hour holiday, which means a full 24 hours of having the most fun ever. Do one (or all) of these things and you won't even think twice about the fact that your single!!

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
