Valentine's Day For Singles

Valentine's Day. As defined by Dictionary.com, it is February 14th, observed in honor of St. Valentine as a day for the exchange of valentines or other tokens of affection. Even though most would agree that sums up Valentine's Day, for others, it isn't the best way to describe the love-filled day. Most people in relationships tend to go to dinner or have a special day planned for their significant other. Now, for those not in a relationship, it is a little different. For singles this Valentine's Day, I hope you can relate to these GIFs and how they pertain to your life as Valentine's Day is fast approaching.

When your friends ask you about your plans for Valentine's Day and you are in no mood to humor them.

Or when you do decide to humor them when they ask what you are doing for Valentine's Day.

And then when they proceed to tell you their plans for the special day with their beloved.

And even better, when they ask you to join them for part of the night because they feel bad that you're "alone" or "single."

And then when you're bored and creep on social media and see all of the happy couples posting cute, sentimental photos on Instagram or Facebook with gushy captions.

When you randomly have a breakdown about how single and truly alone you really are.

But then you remember that you always have yourself and what more could you actually need, right?

So, when all of your friends go out for their Valentine's Day dinners or go to a movie, just go and get yourself some delicious ice cream and watch some Netflix.

Either that, or get some pizza. Because let's face it, who doesn't love a good pizza on Valentine's Day.

But in all actuality, when you truly enjoy being single and do not care that you don't have plans for Valentine's Day, even if your friends don't believe you.

And always remember that Valentine's Day is just one holiday during the year and so much can happen between now and next year on February 14th.

So, to all of you singles out there, remember, make this day about you and do something you enjoy doing, like eating some pizza. But don't let those people in relationships affect your day. A lot can happen in a year, so keep doing you and have a Happy Valentine's Day!

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.
