6 Things Nobody Wants for Valentine's Day

In This Article:

Listen, I love Valentine's Day as much as the next girl but I am so OVER these cliche gifts. Can we please create some variety or at least see some creativity? I can't be the only one sick of the same old, same old gifts.

1. Giant stuffed bear

Okay, this is cute for the first like 2 weeks, and then what the heck do you do with that thing? Where do you store it? It won't fit in your bed and you definitely don't want to throw it away. I have had this bear tucked in my closet for 3 years... WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS BEAR!?

2. Box of chocolates

This is sweet but there is such terrible variety of chocolates and no one really wants those weird combinations so you end up eating 2 from the box and letting them get hard and gross. May I suggest chocolate cupcakes, chocolate donuts, or a hot cocoa bar instead?

3. A bouquet of roses

Here's a thought, find out what your S.O.'s fav flower is and get them a bouquet of THAT.

4. Lingerie

I mean really? What a waste. And what's the point?

5.  Jewelry

And specifically, heart-themed jewelry. Get your S.O. something they will wear every day and something they will truly love, not just heart.

6. Fragrance

While it's a nice gesture, most people want to pick out their own smell, since, ya know, they'll be smelling it all day.

I challenge you to step outside Valentine's normalities this year and get your S.O. things they really want.

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.
