10 things to do now so you have plans next Valentine’s Day

Does this Valentine’s Day suck for you? Here are 10 things you can start doing TODAY to make sure you have some sort of plan next year*.
10. Get a new hobby. This will encourage you to spend less time thinking sad thoughts and more time meeting new people.
9. Consider your diet. I don’t mean to say you don’t look great, but seriously, what are you putting in your body? Too much or too little of anything is going to screw you up.
8. Talk to one stranger a day. The mailman, the bartender, the cab driver, or the dry cleaner – all fair game.
7. Wash your sheets. You never know!
6. Have dinner with your favorite couple and get real with them about their relationship. It helps if you bring/buy wine. Feel free to take notes.
5. Eat a hot dog in front of the MET. This isn’t just for New Yorkers, but for everyone!
4. One of my favorite dating/life bloggers is imboycrazy. She once said “pretend for some unforeseen reason you are going to The Academy Awards next year, and live your life as such”. I like that idea. Go forth.
3. Does your apartment smell weird? Invite someone you trust over to check.
2. Take care of your friends. Don’t just be drinking buddies, be life buddies.
1. Stop making excuses for not doing the things you want to do. SShhh, I don’t want to hear it anymore!
Okay, back to work!
