1. Movie Night


Having a movie night with your friends is always fun, especially when it involves dinner and a show. It's even better if you can all quote the movie lines.

2. Bonfire


An advantage to not being surrounded by concrete and buildings is being able to go out and have a bonfire with your friends. Whether you roast marshmallows or each other, it'll be a night of fun.

3. Thrift Store Shopping


Finding ugly clothes and then trying to convince your best friend they need it is always a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Aside from finding clothes that you will wonder why they were made, you might find a pretty sweet deal.

4. Star Gazing


One of the pros of not living in a city that's heavily populated by lights is that you don't have to go far to see the stars.

5. Ugly Shoe shopping


Going to the store and seeing some of the shoe ideas some people come up with is always a great way to make you feel better about yourself.

6. Walmart Scavenger Hunts


Going into Walmart or a different store that is available in your town is a great way to increase your skill of finding items.

7. Ultimate Frisbee at the park


Frisbee or a different game with your friends at the park is one place to hang out, especially when there aren't really any places to hang out at aside from a friend's house

8. Karaoke


What better way to entertain and bond with your friends than horribly singing your favorite songs?

9. Going on drives


Sometimes you just need to hop in a car and go for a drive either by yourself or with your friends.

10. Explore abandoned places


Almost every town has that building or place that has a story about it and why no one goes there. Why not got check it out?

11. Watch the river rise



If all else fails, go watch a river rise after the rain. Just be careful not to fall in and drown.

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.
