We all know the feeling of being single on Valentine's day and seeing tons of other couples out and having fun. We go about Valentine's day like it's only about couples and dating when really we could also make it about friend and self-love. Here're five things you should do if you're single on Valentine's day.

1. Go out with friends

I'm sure you probably have single friends out there as well, go out with them. Go get dinner, go see a movie, or go shopping. Just because it's Valentine's day doesn't mean you can't go out with your friends because I'm sure you probably all love each other as well.

2. Movie Night with yourself/friends

This one is probably one of my favorites, why not watch some movies by yourself or with your friends. You can order takeout and sit at home, eat, stay in your pjs, and watch movies. I mean that sounds pretty good to me.

3. Drink a bottle of wine

This one goes to the wine lovers out there, although I guess you could drink a bottle of whatever you want(not recommended). But, you want to just relax and have a drink, you have your drink or 5.

4. Babysit for another couple

This one is probably not the most exciting, but it would be very loving for you to do. If you know another couple who needs to get out of the house and away from the kids, take one for the team and babysit the rugrats for a little while, I'm sure they will appreciate it.

5. Binge watch Netflix

Well, you might be doing this now, but are you doing it the right way? You could totally binge watch netflix, eat some ice cream, drink some wine, and eat some takeout and I'd have to say you'd be winning.

So, instead of being all upset about being single for the lovey dovey holiday, take it upon yourself to make it a great day. After all, self love is the most important.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
