10 Reasons to Stay in Charleston for the Summer
Huffington Post

Are you needing one last push to decide whether or not to stay in Charleston for the summer? Here is a list of the top ten best things about Chuck that will make you realize that there's no better place to spend the greatest three months of the year in.

1. Shopping doesn't get much better than King Street.

2. There are three beaches (count 'em, THREE) within fifteen minutes from downtown.

3. There are plenty of hot tourists who are totally available for summer flings.

4. Three words: King Street bars.

5. No really, there's an upwards of fifteen bars within a one mile strip on King Street.

6. Since summer is tourist season, trying to get a job is as easy as walking into any business downtown and handing in your résumé

7. You can walk everywhere on the peninsula, aka you don't even need to go to the gym... right?

8. The food on King Street is better than your mom's cooking (don't worry, we won't tell if you don't).

9. You won't have to find someone to sublease your apartment (and you won't have to deal with having to move your stuff around).


10. It doesn't get much more American and Southern than spending the Fourth of July in Charleston.

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.
