The dreaded February 14th is upon us and we are cursing cupid already! So, what do you do if you hate Valentines Day? Glad you asked! Weve rounded up the top five things to do instead of spending $200 on a fancy dinner in an overly crowded restaurant, buying your beau boxers with candy hearts on them, or getting proposed to on a jumbo-tron.
Cuddle a Panda
Okay, so maybe you hate Valentines Day, but you can still love love, cuddling and all that mushy stuff. But wouldnt you rather cuddle a baby panda than an annoying human same. Its a bit of a hike, and by hike we mean you have to go to China. At the Dujiangyan Panda Base you can pay to be a Panda Keeper for the day. Its a bit steep at $350, but you did hear me say that you get to cuddle a panda right?? Worth it.
Name a Cockroach After your Ex
This may be my favorite thing there ever was ever. Is naming eight cockroaches too many?? The El Paso Zoo has a Quit Bugging Me campaign. This year it will be three days, Feb 14th-16th AND its totally free, but they do accept donations. Have I mentioned the best part? They will feed your ex to the meerkats and other animals at the zoo on a live stream!! Could this awful day get any better?!
Rage Room
Its February 13th, you turned on the tube and accidentally caught the ending to The Notebook. Dont worry we can fix this! Head to your nearest rage room and just go to town. Start smashing a bunch of stuff and let off some steam.
Jetset
We recently wrote a piece on CheapOair and found some amazing deals. So, then it hit us! Lets just get the Hell outta here on Valentines Day. Head to Vegas, hit the slots, go to the beach, fly as far away from your ex as possible. Do you girl!
Cast a Spell
Get out that bad juju with a self love spell! Our badass bestie, Bex is a spell guru and the owner/designer of Badass Bitches Tarot and she has graciously given us the low down on a banashing negative energies self love spell. Heres what youll need:
1 black candle,1 pink candle, cinnamon, olive oil, a toothpick or carving device, any crystals you want to work with- I recommend rose quartz and amethyst, The Devil Tarot Card, and The Queen of Cups Tarot Card.
1. Take the black candles and carve all the energies you wish to release. It could be a toxic ex, bad habits etc
2. Grab the pink candle and carve your name, your birthdate and anything you are wishing to call in to you.
3. Anoint your candle -aka- rub olive oil from the bottom up. I chose olive oil for love and prosperity and it is an easily accessible household item.
4. Sprinkle with cinnamon for connecting to your intuition on how to call these things in moving forward
5. Place the black candle in a holder and place The Devil card upside down beside it, representing the clearing of self sabotage and negative vices. Light the candle while envisioning these energies melting away from your life.
6. Place the pink candle in a holder and place The Queen of Cups beside it, representing self love, intuition and emotional stability and flow. Light the candle while envisioning these energies coming into your life, being drawn toward the flame and into your energy field.
*Poof*
Self love.
So, if you hate Valentines Day what will you be doing on February 14th?
