Galentine's Day

A special day to celebrate being a gal with your gals.

Galentine's Day

Galentine’s Day:

A special day to celebrate being a gal with your gals.

To begin, I won’t start to hate on all you relationship people out there. We’ve been there, we've done that, it obviously did not work out for us. Therefore, we will secretly hate and be jealous of you all at once, leaving us with this odd feeling of semi-saltiness. So, us single-cheese-slices now have to resort to finding a way to spend one of our population’s most dreaded holidays, Valentine’s Day.

For some of us, a personal large pepperoni pizza, cheap wine, and Netflix are all we really need. We fill our stomachs so full we couldn’t move, even if we were invited to some sort of outing or date. We don’t check social media because that would just make us want to puke and cry simultaneously, and with the prices these days, no one wants to puke up pizza.

For others, a day full of girls is what the doctor calls for. A date with your girlfriends can cure any love hangover that may be lingering from the holiday cuffing season.

Galentine’s day can be filled with whatever you and your friends enjoy. Whether it be just multiple pizzas and more than one bottle of sketchy-priced wine, a day at the spa, or watching that awkward anti-Valentine’s day movie that comes out on Valentine’s day. Galentine’s day is for sure to make you feel better about your life. Surrounding yourself with your best friends helps you confront the reasons why you all happen to be in the same non-romantic situation; college boys suck at relationships and you are too cool to have a boyfriend. You get to joke about all the embarrassing things all your friends have done, that probably should not ever be repeated, but for Galentine’s day sake, anything is up for discussion. You get to eat whatever you want without worrying if it got stuck in your teeth or your lipstick smudged. You get to wear anything or even nothing depending on your activity choice. There is no stress about looking smokin’ hot or impressing anyone because these are the people that hold your hair when you puke.

So whether you spend the day alone cramming food down your throat or hanging with your girls doing everything anti-boy, don’t worry about not having a significant other, because you’re awesome without anyone by your side.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
