Mid-February. It’s the time of the year when both the snow and the homework are piling up and it seems as if you’re being suffocated by the sheer amount of over-priced chocolates, roses, and the color pink. Each year on February 14th, those of us not in a relationship are faced with the depressing ritual of crying over "The Notebook" alone and buying discount chocolate the next day. However, being single does not have to be boring so grab your girlfriends and put together a fun Galentine's Day!

1. Get together with all of your favorite single gals

Because let's be real - spending Valentine's day with the girls is way less stressful and way more fun than spending it with a guy.

2. Make reservations at a fancy restaurant with said gals

Bonus points if you place bets on how long the couples around you will stay together.

3. Pack your purses with lots of candy hearts and chocolates

In case you get a little hungry while waiting for your chicken parm and cannolis.

4. Dress up and get cute pics with the girls

Okay so V day is on a Tuesday this year but the rule still applies: pink, purple, and red are a must.

5. After the cute photos, take off all that makeup and hairspray and put on your coziest PJs.

Remember, calories don’t count on holidays.

7. Binge-watch all your favorite rom-coms.

My go-tos are "Sixteen Candles," "Clueless," "13 Going on 30," "Mean Girls," "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days," and "The Wedding Date."

But at the end of the night, we all know that the reason we're single is that Zac Efron just hasn't found us yet.
