Hey It’s OK! Valentine’s Day Edition

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bucknell chapter.

…if the only legitimate cards you get are from your mom and crazy aunt.

…to make heart-shaped pancakes, even if they’re just for your roommates.

…if you really don’t enjoy the taste of conversation hearts, but still manage to find fun uses for them.

…to wear black to the Valentine’s Day date party. After all, there isn’t a more flattering color!

…to already have your “50 Shades” ticket bought and ready. Hey, you’ve never had plans THIS early before!

…to be secretly excited for the candy sales come February 15.

…to send a pic of the beautiful bouquet, stuffed teddy bear, and chocolate your S.O. sent you to your closest friends

not mass blast it on multiple social media platforms. 

…if you’ve always hated the color pink.

…to still cry every single time you watch The Notebook – Nicholas Sparks has yet to top the truly heartbreaking story of Allie and Noah. 

…to treat February 14 as any other normal day on the calendar.
