The Pros Of Being Single

Forget date night, and have a girl's night.

The Pros Of Being Single
HBO / Sex and the City

Every girl dreams of finding her own Prince Charming, and I blame Disney movies for that. And while yes it's okay to want this, it's also okay to be single. When you're on your own you learn a lot about yourself. You also can have a lot of fun. So grab your best friend, some rom-coms, wine and have yourself a girls night.

Reasons why being single isn’t as miserable as it sounds:


Freedom- you are on your own. You don't have to worry about reporting to anyone. There is nothing worse than a clingy or naggy boyfriend always wondering where you are, who you're with and what you're doing.


You can come home and enjoy that large glass of wine with no judgement from your significant other. I won't judge if you drink the whole bottle either...

You can also go out and drink with your girls. Nothing is better than embracing your single life than sharing it with your also single besties at the bar. Remember... girls night is the new date night.


Did I mention the options out there? There are plenty of cute singles out there, and you can chat with them all, like the hottie football player in your math class or the cute barista at Starbucks who knows your order.

Haven’t shaved your legs in a few days? Do you just hate shaving? No worries, own it.

If you don’t like sports you don’t have to pretend you do, and you definitely won't have to watch any. Go team go!

You can have guy friends without the all of the jealousy and T Swift like rage. Because really, who still believes guys and girls cannot just be friends...

So there you have it ladies, forget date night and plan a girls night. Friends are forever, boyfriends aren't. Single is more fun.

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.
