13 Things I'd Rather Do On Valentine's Day Than Go On A Date
123rf

It's almost time for yet another Hallmark holiday. A day when our newsfeed is bombarded with sappy couples posts. As much as I love chocolate, here are quite a few things I'd much rather be doing than spending Valentine's Day on a sappy dates.

1. Watch Netflix in my pajamas

There's honestly not much better than getting super cozy under a bunch of blankets and binge-watching your favorite show. I'm not too interested in making room for another person or having to take into consideration what he might want to watch.

2. Order a pizza and eat the whole thing

Second to watching Netflix all day, I find it incredibly satisfying to order a pizza and silently pride myself on the ability to finish the whole thing. I don't really want to share so...

3. Go get half-apps

I'd rather spend time with a bunch of my single gal-pals eating half-apps and enjoying margaritas than going for an expensive dinner.

4. Send lame valentine's to friends

Every year, I live to find the newest hilarious valentine's floating around and sending them to the people who I know will appreciate them. Even better: when my friends know me well enough to send me the ones they know I'll love.

5. Go shopping

Especially the day after Valentine's Day when all the chocolate is half-price!

6. Buy myself chocolate

I know what I like and I know I'm fully capable of eating the whole box.

7. Go to the gym

Nothing like some productive empowerment to make me feel good.

8. Do homework

Because Valentine's Day is on a Wednesday and we're all good students.

9. Bake myself some cupcakes

Treat yo self.

10. Cuddle with my dog

Because honestly, no one gives better cuddles than my pup.

11. Spend time with my hedgehog

I just really want to hang out with my pets.

12. Drink wine

Not that I don't do that on any other given day, but it's just a little more satisfying on Valentine's Day.

13. Cry

I..It's just...never mind.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
