Just a short little extra post today just as I wanted to show this up before V-Day
So very soon the exclusive and elusive holiday of Valentine's Day is upon us and if any of you are like me your constantly single during this holiday for those who aren't forever alone, there is feeling of awkwardness when February approaches.
So very soon the exclusive and elusive holiday of Valentine's Day is upon us and if any of you are like me your constantly single during this holiday for those who aren't forever alone, there is feeling of awkwardness when February approaches.
Now I'm not saying that if you re in a happy, stable, loving relationship you shouldn't take a day to celebrate that love and enjoy spending time with your significant other, but if your are single whether you choose to be or not Valentine's Day can sometimes be a pain, especially if everyone else around is lovey-dovey.
Now this post isn't complaining about the existence of Valentine's Day or the commercialised aspects of it but more of a little bit of some fun advice/tips on how us single pringle girls like me can use if your feeling a little down on February 14th. Why not catch up with friends or have some me time instead.
Organise a fun movie night for you and few of your friends, whether its chick flicks, horrors or binging a new tv show, get a few of your also single friends together and break out the popcorn (if you still live at home like I do, it could even be your mum that you chill out with this coming Valentine's)
Another friends option is a picnic (sorry north hemisphere), grab a pizza, fish & chips or even do a pot luck of all your favourite foods and head to your local park or beach. This means you don't have to worry about running into lovey does couples by going to a restaurant but are still grabbing a fun bit to eat with your friends and not feeling pushed to celebrate if you don't want to. Grab a speak, make a fun playlist, dance it out, maybe even break out some glow sticks and make it a night of it.
You don't need friends for these two ideas either, grab your fav movie or create a fun playlist and just chill. Dance it out in your room or snuggle down with some popcorn m & m's, it doesn't matter whether you have a significant other by your side or not, you can have some me time and have some fun doing it. I have a playlist on my phone called Happiness which is basically my dance and sing it out playlist and I know that if I'm feeling down or need to burn off some energy I can just put it on and feel great. Try it out this Valentines if you feel a bit down and out.
How bout buying yourself a treat, whether just a nice block of chocolate, some pretty flowers to brighten up your room or a new dress, whatever make you smile that day you totally deserve.You don't need a significant other to buy you something or even buy something to impress someone. Buy it because you want it. Now I'm not endorsing frivolous spending but its okay to have a treat once in a while as a pick me up or a just cause.
Bit of a bitty post but I just wanted to post something about Valentine's Day as I know that sometime is can be hard for those of us that don't have a someone who we want celebrate it. If you are feeling a little lonely or down because it is February 14th, just remember there are always people out there who love you, why not give them a call and see if they are free for some fun, I'm sure it will bring a smile to your dial.
Hope these help lovely :)
Let me know what your up to this weekend whether its with a partner, your friends, family or yourself. I'ld love to hear it.
