The Huffington Post

Whether you have been married for 30 years or you are going on your first date people are always looking for new and interesting date ideas. The typical romantic dinner is nice but every once in a while it is common for people to want to spice things up with something new. I have scoured the internet to find the most fun and interesting date ideas while also keeping your wallet in mind.

1.Beginner bachata dance classes

Art In Motion Dance Academy: 233 N. 12th Street

2.BYOB Pottery Class

The arts are a great way to get to know someone in a fun and relaxed environment. Spin some clay while also accessing your inner artist.

3. Room Escape Philadelphia

If you are looking for different kind of date you have come to the right place. Room escape Philadelphia involves guests solving puzzles and surmounting obstacles in under 60 minute to escape the room. The storyline is from American history and takes place in the historic Alcatraz Island.

4. Tour of Philadelphia by segway

No matter how long you have lived in Philadelphia it seems like there are always new places to explore. This tour will take you along the Delaware River, past landmarks like Old City, Society Hill and the historic district, and some parts of South Philly, such as the Italian Market and the Magic Gardens.Take your significant other on a ride around the city that they won't forget.

5. Ice Skating At Penns Landing

Ice skating is both romantic and a daring date idea. The Blue Cross Riverrink Winterfest opens Novembr 25,2016 and will include DJ skate nights, a tree lighting ceremony, a beer festival, holiday movie nights and more throughout the season.



6.The Wizard of Oz at the Walnut st. Theater

Broadway tickets can be pretty pricey in New York. However i have personally seen "The Lion King" on broad way in Philadelphia and it was and unforgettable experience. This date night would be a great anniversary or birthday gift. The "Wizard of Oz" will be playing until January 8,2017.

Walnut Street Theater: Walnut Street Theatre, 825 Walnut Street



7. Franklin Square Holiday Festival

Come have a eye catching time with the one you love at Franklin Square Holiday Festival. If the 50,000 beautiful lights and holiday music isn't enough, no need to worry there will also be alfresco fire pits, a winter beer garden, seasonal treats (including homemade fudge!), and pay-as-you-go food.

Franklin Square: Franklin Square, 200 6th Street, Philadelphia Pa 19106



8. Philadelphia 76ers Game

If you are looking for a night of excitement and (most importantly good food) a 76ers game is a great date night. The best thing about this date night is that it will not break the bank. Depending on how well the team is doing the tickets can be very reasonable. Right now there is a deal on groupon for 13 dollars. Game will be on November 30th at 7pm Sixers vs.The Sacramento Kings.

Wells Fargo Center: 3601 S Broad St, Philadelphia, PA 19148



9. Rock Climbing

Nothing say's trust like having your life in the hands of your partner holding your rope while you climb. Rock climbing is an excellent date idea to help build trust and to push each other to new heights. Not to mention that Go Vertical is the largest indoor rock climbing gym on the east coast.

Go Vertical: 950 North Penn St. Philadelphia, PA 19123



10. World Cafe Live


Finally, If you and your significant other like live music this is the perfect place for you. World Cafe Live has a dinning and a dining area upstairs as well as a bar. There is also plenty of seating downstairs and from the reviews it sounds like it's impossible to get a bad seat at this venue. This location is always bringing in new artist. Below i am going to leave the World Cafe Live website so you can see what bands are playing and plan your next trip.

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.
