12 Necessities For The Frio River
Abigail Roenne

If you’re a Texan you have definitely heard of or hopefully been to the Frio river. It is located in Concan, Texas and has camping, tubing, hiking, and country dancing. All these things make for some super great memories! Below here I have provided some helpful trip necessities that will prepare you for the good time that awaits at one of Texas' best vacation spots!

1. Bathing suit of course! (Of course.)

2. Sunscreen because the sun rays will definitely be intensely beaming down on you as you tube the river. Or if you're a girlie who likes to get her tan on, like myself, bring sun tan lotion instead.

3. BOOTS for two-stepping the night away at the Garner State Park dance pavilion!

4. Remember to clear up your storage on your phone so it will be ready for all of the pictures you're going to be taking.

5. Sunglasses because who wants to squint floating down the river? No one! A neck strap is a good idea to keep them from falling off and floating away into the abyss of river.

6. A hat to shield your precious face from the sun because after like two days your face will be super tan and you will want some much needed shade.

7. A TUBE so you can float down the river. Watch out for the rapids and remember to raise your booty for any rude rocks on the bottom!

8. Cards, Dominoes or Cornhole because when you’re winding down in the evenings you will want these fun games that will bring everyone together!

9. You will need river shoes (preferably water shoes or sandals, which are made for it). Old flip flops work, too. Anything is better than nothing because it’s a rocky bottom and your feet are sure to get hurt without them.

10. Radio for blasting those country jams down by the river. You will want to listen to some good tunes that will enhance the good Frio River vibes!

11.GoPro (if you have one). Adventures like floating down the river, jumping off rope swings, and cannon balling off of cliffs all make for exciting GoPro experiences!

12. Good company because going to the Frio River and Garner State Park makes for time away from the world and technology, make sure you’re around loved ones that you are going to want to make fantastic memories with! In the end, this is the necessity that matters most.

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.
