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.

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."
