Why it is Good to “Treat Yo’ Self”

If you have ever seen Parks and Recreation then you know exactly what the phrase “treat yo’ self” means. You also know why it is really good to “treat yo’ self.” Everyone gets stressed out from school or work and some times you just need to wind down or reward yourself for a successful, crazy week. What better way to do that then going on a spa or shopping trip with your best girls? Here are a few ways to do that.

1. Like I said, go on a shopping trip. Get some new clothes that express who you are and make you feel sexy.

2. Order a big, meaty pizza! Or a big, veggie pizza because you’re a vegetarian, or something.

3. Go to the beach, if you live somewhere where it’s hot, and just chill out and relax.

4. Make a spa trip! I’ve never been to a spa, but I have been in need of a “treat yo’ self” day. Who knows, maybe that will be my next adventure.

(Sort of off topic, but watch Conan O'Brien treat himself at a Korean spa! You won’t regret it). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k70xBg8en-4

5. Go to a to a hotel and order room service all day and watch unlimited television.

6. “Paint me like one of your French girls.” But actually, go find an artist and have them paint you a portrait.

7. Maybe switch roles and become the artist. Have a wine and art day!

8. Treat yo' self to some amazing cuisine. San Diego is home to so many amazing, delicious places that you should definitely try.

9. Don't go to the gym and eat all the bad food you want. 

10. Buy some bling! Stock up on some jewelry. That special necklaces you have been eyeing up for the past month -- go get it!"

11. Make a trip to an amusement park. If you live in Southern California, it’s Disneyland. Go to the happiest place on Earth!

12. Stock up on your shoe collection that you weirdly have an obsession with.

13. If you don't feel like spending money for a hotel, then have a lazy day at home, doing absolutely nothing. Watch Netflix and cook. Or have someone cook for you because "treat yo' self."

14. Go exploring. Take your camera and then you can brag to your friends about your wild adventures.

Basically, what I am trying to say is just go out and have a relaxing day for yourself. If you have a close friend who wants to join you, all the better. Make it a weekly thing, or even a monthly thing. Or make it a yearly thing, like Donna and Tom. You won't regret it because the day after you are going to feel a whole lot better. So remember, "treat yo' self."

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.
