V-Day or Me-Day?

Valentines Day is all about spending time with the people you love.

V-Day or Me-Day?

Well it's February, which means St. Valentine is at it again. That's right, it's Valentines Day. The time when pink and red throws up all over the place and Hallmark makes a ton of money on cheesy cards. Candy sales go through the roof and people fall into chocolate commas. People in relationships feel even more ~in love~, which is stupid because you should feel that everyday and those who are single and ready mingle just feel alone AF. Here are 8 ways you can have the best bae-entines day or gal-entines day.

1. Make yourself some dinner.

It is almost impossible to get a reservation at a restaurant. When on any other Tuesday you could walk in and get a table right away. So forget a fancy dinner and make one for yourselves. It'll be a better bonding experience and you'll learn something new.


2. Ice-Cream it out.

If fact just forget dinner all together and go get ice cream. It's cheaper and it'll make you feel less gross then a giant meal.


3. Sing your heart out.

Grab your girls or your boo or both and an old cd. Blast your favorite throwback song and sing along at the top of your lungs. Or lipsync and put on a show. Take turns, laugh, and make memories.


4. Have a party.

Is there really any better way to spend a holiday then with a bunch of your friends, loud music, snack foods, dancing and crazy lights? The answer is No.


5. Movie night.

Make some popcorn, cuddle up on the couch and watch an old favorite. Rom-com or chick flick not needed.


6. Spa night.

Sip on cucumber water and paint your nails, or apply a face mask, deep condition your hair. Whatever you need to do to make sure you're as ~pampered~ as you deserve.


7. Y-O-G-A


Take some time to yourself to meditate. Relax your breathing and give yourself a break from everything you have to do. Don't want to be alone? Have friends over and throw in a yoga dvd and relax together.


8. Photoshoot.

Tape a fun sheet to your wall and grab a camera (or phone). Throw on a cute outfit, put on your favorite makeup and take some bomb pics for Insta. Doing this with friends or bae will definitely provide some laughs and cute pose opportunities! Don't forget the candids.

Honestly, it doesn't matter what you do, at the end of the day Valentines Day is all about spending time with the people you love.

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.
