Yes, having a significant other is great and all. However, the single perks are absolutely worth some of those "in your feels" moments. I am not a bitter single person, in fact, I quite enjoy it. This is meant to be humorous. Enjoy!

1. You don't have to share.

Covers, food, money, time, gas, you name it. It is singularly yours. And it is a great concept of life.

2. Holidays are cheaper.

Just think about it. Less gift buying. Being giving is great, but saving those extra dollars here and there will make up for the fact that other people have cute Instagram posts.

3. More time for self care.

This is not to say that while in a relationship you have no time to care for yourself. It's just that when not in a relationship, you have more time to do and might get better at it so that you are capable of maintaining as life goes on.

4. All food/activity decisions are made by you.

No need for this age-old argument/ discussion. If you want something, you don't have to ask your significant other for their opinion. You can just go for it!

5. You don't feel any sense of guilt when going out.

GIRLS NIGHT OUT (or boys) EVERY NIGHT! Too many times have I had friends who can't go out because of their significant other. Again, when in a relationship you can still hang out with friends. BUT when you're single, you have absolutely no guilt in going out and having fun without your SO.

6. Singular schedule.

Your plans are based on you and you alone! No need to worry about working around someone else's schedule. It is all on you and you get to make the decisions for how your time is spent.

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire.

One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

However, I thought I would just refresh everyone's memories and show how math can be beautiful and apply to physical things everywhere around us with stunning examples.
