4 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Panic About Valentine's Day

A recent fried of mine was telling me about a current situation she's been in including her now found "boy" interest. The only problem with this whole aspect was the fact that the two of them only started talking about two weeks ago. She was in between whether or not they would actually start "talking" after or before Valentines Day. So, more importantly, does she say "Happy Valentines Day!" to the boy she's only been getting to know for a month, or simply ignore the fact that it's Valentines Day because she/he doesn't want anything to become weird? Well, if you're in this predicament or even somewhere along the vicinity, read these tips and take a breather!

1) The boy you've recently started talking to is probably thinking the same thing you are

- Most of time dealing with myself or even the people around me, I notice that we often lack communication in this day and age. Almost more than half the time the reason people have so many disagreements in relationships is because they don't communicate. So the guy you're talking to probably is thinking the same thing about wishing you a happy valentines day.

2) Ignore it, and act like it's just another day

- Sometimes the only way to actually get over something without overworking yourself is to ignore it. Treat the day like any other! don't say any comments that would make it seem like you're being overly bearing about the day! If you two are calm and collected like any other day, tomorrow will be no different!

3) If he/she hasn't asked about plans yet:

- Tell him/her that you already made plans months ago! Sometimes saying things are in tradition makes it easier for the both of you. If you already have previous plans or at least pretend you do, this would alleviate any awkwardness from the subject of cupids special day.

4) Don't panic, it's simply another day

- Love is great, and if going onto Facebook and Snapchat makes you feel a little irritiable about not having that special person on Valentines Day, don't fret! Your best friends and a bottle of wine are always considered trophies!

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.
