In This Article:

Summer is here! Nothing's better than a few months of summer and no school...but what should you do with all your free time? Here are ten things to add to your summer bucket list that are cliché, but classic.

Go to a BBQ

Whether you throw your own or just score an invite, BBQs are so quintessentially summer. Throw some meat (or meat alternatives) on the grill and kick back with your friends and family.

Go to the Drive-In

There's nothing like spending the night at the drive-in theater. Enjoy the newest summer blockbuster from the comfort of your own car, and bring your friends!

Make Lemonade

Ah, lemonade. Is there a more refreshing summer drink? Homemade lemonade tastes like childhood, so whip up a pitcher of childhood nostalgia this year!

Watch Fireworks

Summer = fireworks. Enough said.

Go to a Fair

Even if it's a bit of a drive, going to a fair is worth it. Games, rides, and a whole lotta junk food... what's not to love? It's an exciting way to spend the day with people you love!

Make S'mores

If summer had an official flavor, it just might be s'mores. Chocolate, graham crackers, and marshmallows — it's a winning combination. Whether it's outside or in your kitchen, make s'mores before the summer is over!

Spend a Day at the Beach

What is summer without a trip to the beach? Take one day (at least) out of your summer vacation to spend at the beach, soakin' up the sun and enjoying the nice, cold water. If you don't live by the ocean, then have a DIY beach day; you can go to a lake, river, or pool and spend the day there!

Go to a Baseball Game

This may be the most cliché summer activity, but it's worth it. Baseball games have everything: hot dogs, beer, and... Well, baseball! Being at a game is always better than watching it on TV... 'tis the season!

Tie-Dye Shirts (or Anything, Really)

Flickr

Tie-dyeing is a fun activity that children and adults can enjoy! Whether it's shirts, shorts, or whatever you want, this is the perfect activity to kick off the summer.

Go Camping

Flickr

It's not for everyone, but camping is definitely cliché enough to make the list! Grab a cooler, a tent, and anything else you need to have the perfect camping trip this summer — though it's totally okay if you want to go glamping instead!

There you have it! Ten totally cliché activities to add to your summer bucket list!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
