1. We do NOT want the whole flowers, chocolates, and dinner ordeal.

We don't want the whole stereotypical day. Most likely, we've had ENOUGH of those with guys that just broke our hearts, so the story got old quickly. Maybe shoot for a more original plan?

2. Maybe just don't take us out in public. Period.

If there's anything we hate more than Valentine's day, it's watching other people celebrate it. It's kind of disgusting to us when we see girls with arms full of flowers and teddy bears from guys who got the same gifts for three other girls. Overrated.

3. We like low-key things.


Don't get me wrong. we still can appreciate romance, but we like it a lot more low-key. Cooking a dinner at home, camping out in the living oom, or even just a movie night will suffice.

4. Sappy cards are acceptable.

While the entire holiday was Hallmark's way of generating revenue, we can still appreciate a good, old-fashioned, sappy card. It's like a modern-day love letter, right?

5. Basically, it's not that we actually hate the holiday, but we just think it's overrated.


It's not our thing to be around hundreds of other couples sucking face. While we can appreciate noble romantic gesture, we are also easily pleased. To us, Valentine's Day is every day because we feel that we don't need to reserve our love for one day of the year.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
