As a young woman, I have always thought that I needed to do things and go out with other people. While there are some things that are not very safe for women to do alone, like go out to the club or bar, there are plenty of things that are safe to do alone. As a matter of fact, there are many things you should do all alone as a young lady in your 20s. Doing these things alone isn't just fun, but you may be able to discover new things about yourself and doing these things may allow you to grow in this prime time.

1. Take yourself out to a nice dinner.

2. Go on a road trip.

3. Travel to a new state you've always wanted to visit. 

4. Go hiking.

5. Go to the movie theater.

6. Get an apartment and live alone.

7. Buy a pet.

8. Go to the beach.

9. Go on a cruise.

10. Take yourself on a shopping spree.

11. Go to a sip and spatter class.

12. Find a new hobby you like to do by yourself.

13. Get a new tattoo or piercing.

14.Get a professional massage.

15. Sit in a coffee shop.

Doing things by yourself, especially in your 20s, can be very refreshing. Sometimes, those things you experience by yourself will be some of your best memories.

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.

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.
