Yes, spring break is supposed to be a wild experience with all your friends at the beach. However, if you're like me and you're staying home for the break, here's 10 fun things to do to make your boring week a little bit better! (Note: this isn't supposed to be bold but this thing isn't working with me today. Also idk what those bullet points are for but they won't go away)

  • Have a sleepover with old friends

You know those best friends you had in high school that you never talk to now that you’re in college? Call them up and see if they want to get together. I’m sure they miss you as much as you miss them

  • Go on a road trip/adventure

Spontaneous road trips are the absolute best. No plan and no intended destination. Grab some friends and hit the road with a bomb playlist

  • Have a cook out with your family

You’re home for spring break and have been away from your family for a long time. Have dinner with them and catch up on life; yours and theirs

  • Clean your room/Re-do your room

This one doesn’t seem that fun to most people, but I promise you’ll feel better if everything is clean and put in its place.

  • Have a picnic with friends

Get some fast food, because no one cooks in college, and grab some friends for a nice picnic on a sunny day. Take lots of pictures to remember the beautiful day and the glorious fast food you just ate.

  • Go to a lake or beach for the day

Grab that cute bathing suit you’ve been dying to show off and go to a lake or beach for the day with some friends! Just don’t forget your sunscreen or you might regret it later!

  • Read an interesting book

No one ever has time to read in college, there’s so many things that come before sitting down and reading a good book. Spring break is a time to relax and unwind from the stress of school; run a bath, light some candles, and read a book

  • Have a movie marathon of Harry Potter/The Hunger Games/Lord of the Rings/etc.

If you’re just really bored one day and have no desire to get out of bed, then pop some popcorn, grab a soda, and start a movie marathon of your favorite series. Movie marathons are hard, but series are meant to be watched back to back.

  • Go shopping

Grab a few girlfriends or your mom (preferably mom because she will pay for things) and hit up your local mall/shopping center for some trendy new clothes. Be sure to show off all your new finds when school starts back!

  • Go to a dog park

What’s better than watching dogs run around all day? I can’t think of anything else I’d rather do on a sunny spring day. Just remember to watch where you step!!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
