The Midwest is the most beautiful and diverse place in the country. There's always so much to do and so much to see. It's a date heaven in terms of the most Instagram-able and #goals posts and memories.

1. Camping

One of the best parts of the Midwest is the fact that we have so much open land and beautiful scenery. Nothing beats a cute camping trip on a lake with oodles of s'mores.

2. Pumpkin Patch

An iconic part of the Midwest is being able to experience all four seasons. Taking advantage of the perfect fall weather by visiting a pumpkin patch and enjoying cider and donuts is a must!

3. Chicago

Cheesecake Factory, shopping, Garret's Popcorn... need I say more?

4. Cedar Point

A date where you can actually have fun and be crazy with one another is the perfect date. A day spent at an amusement park is the perfect way to have fun in the summer.

5. Ice Skating

Because the Midwest is covered in lakes, the cutest holiday date of all time is made possible.

6. Beach Day

Again, we have enough lakes to go around. Might as well take advantage of them.

7. Zoo

Holding hands and feeding some giraffes? Sign me up.

8. Baseball Games

The Cubs, Tigers, Indians, Twins, Reds, White Socks, Royals, Brewers, Cardinals... more like BAEball

9. Kayaking

Whether it be down a river or in one of the beautiful Great Lakes, a day on the water can be the perfect and relaxing get away date you need.

10. Dipping Literally Everything In Ranch

Pizza and fries and mozzarella sticks and veggies and chicken and....

11. Picnic

(with ranch, of course)

12. Counting how many times many times the other person says "Ope"

"Ope let me sneak past ya and grab the ranch..."

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.
