3 Ways to Celebrate Anti-Valentine’s Day

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

I don’t know about you, but Valentine’s Day probably tops the list of my LEAST favorite holidays. I dislike almost everything about it (minus the surplus of chocolate, I can deal with that). However, I am determined not to let my distaste of all things mushy-gushy prevent me from having a lovely 14th of February. I have devised a fool-proof list of 3 ideas to make Valentine’s great.

 

1. GAL-entine’s Day: Celebrate the gals in your life! Watch a chick-flick, eat some chocolate, drink some wine, eat too much ice cream, and do other cliché girlie activities. Make sure you let your gal-pals know how special they are and how much their friendships mean to you.

 

2. Take advantage in the Anti-Valentine’s day community:

Laugh at these staunchly anti-V-day cards: http://www.buzzfeed.com/hgrant/21-anti-valentines-day-cards-from-etsy-just-for-y.

Jam out to a single’s playlist: http://www.metrolyrics.com/news-story-so-sick-of-love-songs-the-anti-valentines-day-playlist.html.

Wear sweatpants. Order Pizza. Twerk on the walls. Do whatever you want, because Valentine’s got nothing on you.

 

3. Watch Season 2 of House of Cards: Let Kevin Spacey be your Valentine. The entire second season of House of Cards premieres on Netflix on the 14th. Hang out with Frank and Claire Underwood as they scheme to take over D.C’s political scene. I can’t think of better V-Day activity. 

 

Happy Anti-Valentine’s Day, ya’ll!
