It’s the first day of the month, and you find yourself shrugging? ‘Eh, it’s just another month.’ Wrong! February is a month of good cheer and celebration. It is also the month that gives you another chance at your new year’s resolution.
Here are five reasons why February is one of the best months of the year.
1. You get another shot!
You made your new year resolutions, and so far, you have ticked a few off the list. Well, February is here to give you another chance to start those activities. Revisit the goals you were unable to achieve in January. Do you want to lose some weight? Start now. Do you want to kick off that business? Well, now is the best time. So get that new year’s resolution and start ticking those boxes.
2. Valentine’s day
It’s the season of love, and trust me, teddy bears and flowers will start disappearing from the shelves. There is this romantic aura that surrounds February, and you don’t have to be in a relationship to enjoy Valentine’s Day. If you are single, you can snuggle up in your blanket and watch a cute movie or if you are in a relationship, plan something beautiful with your partner. To seek out date ideas you can try for that day, check this out.
3. Lots Of Events Coming Up!
January was like three months packed into one, so it is relieving that the month after it would go faster. You don’t have to worry about the days stretching for so long. Before you know it, February is over, and we are on to the next. Regardless, there are exciting holidays in February, and one of them is World Nutella Day, so you can enjoy a jar of Nutella without feeling guilty.
There are events to also look out for and one of them is the Lagos Social Media Week. There are loads of activities packed in this event and it begins on February 23, 2021.
One major event that the world is looking forward to is the International Fashion Week. The fashion week will be holding in three major fashion cities; New York (February 7-15), London (February 15-19), Milan (February 19-25), and Paris (February 25-March 5).
Due to the pandemic restrictions, you may not be able to attend but that doesn’t stop you from witnessing the world’s biggest fashion show from the comfort of your home.
4. More movies will hit the shelves
Especially if you are a romance fan, this month will be your best one yet. Since it’s the season of love, more movies will be released this month, and most of them will be centred around love.
One movie to look out for is Namaste Wahala, a Nigerian romance-comedy centred around an interracial relationship. The movie will be premiered on February 14.
If you are more interested in foreign movies, wait for To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before: Always and Forever, coming out on February 12, 2021, which is the last of the To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before series. So get your tissues and chocolates ready!
5. February is the month of luck
Don’t hesitate to make a wish at random times. You’ll never know; they might actually come true. The cold weather will slowly fade away, and soon, spring will set in. Anything you work on has a good chance of coming to pass in February; all you have to do is stay optimistic.
Happy new month, and I wish you a fabulous February!
