Although everyone is focused on Valentine’s Day in just a few short days, the best day of the month is truly the day afterward: Galentine’s Day 2020 is Saturday, February 15. This is a day filled with friends, fun, and lots of goodies. If you’re single and hate the idea of Valentine’s Day, do not worry! Below is a list of dorm-friendly Galentine’s Day activity ideas to share with your girl gang.
Movie Night
You can never go wrong with a movie night, especially if it’s watching a rom-com on Galentine’s Day. Some of my personal favorites are She’s The Man, Bridesmaids, Mamma Mia, Love Actually, and Sex in the City. Whether it’s a classic or a new Netflix original, rom-coms will let you feel all the emotions you need to post-Valentine’s Day.
DIY Face Scrub
Everyone needs a little bit of self-care after Valentine’s Day. Grab some cane sugar, water, lemon, and tea tree oil, and mix! This is an easy, quick, and fun activity that you and your friends can do together— and your skin will thank you!
