It is almost Valentine's Day, the day of love. Some people love the day, some people hate it. Some people are in relationships, some people are single. Whether you are in a relationship or on your own this Valentine's Day, don't forget to show yourself some love. It is great to show yourself some love and appreciation once and awhile, and what better time to do so than on Valentine's Day?

Below are 10 things you can (and should) do for yourself this week.


1. Buy yourself chocolate covered strawberries

Really, get yourself whatever your favorite special treat is. Mine just happens to be dark chocolate covered strawberries (hint hint)

2. Take some time for yourself, just to relax and be peaceful.

Whatever you like to do on your own, whatever makes you feel calm, take time to do it. You deserve it.

3 Watch your favorite movie

That movie that you have been wanting to watch, that maybe no one else wants to watch? Watch it.

5. Enjoy a nice meal

Stop and pick up YOUR favorite meal. Everyone has one.

6. Take a bath

Nothing says rest, relaxation, and self-love like a long bath with music, candles, tea, and maybe even some chocolate.

7. Treat yourself to some ice cream

There is literally never a wrong time to eat ice cream.

8. Take a day trip

Go out somewhere new, somewhere exciting, somewhere different. You don't have to go far. You don't have to spend a lot of money. Just grab some friends or a significant other, and do something out of the ordinary.

9. Show love to someone else

Whether you do something nice for someone, give someone a hug, or smile at a stranger, just make sure to show some love to someone else. Nothing does the heart well like loving another.


I hope this Valentine's Day is your most love filled day yet, and that you show yourself the love you always should.

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.
