13 Activities To Take Advantage Of This Summer
Allie Rusinski

Even though we are in July now, I still have things I want to do before summer comes to a close. I hope you see these different activities and try doing them with your friends, family, boyfriend, etc. Let us make this summer, one to remember!!

1. GO TO A "NICE" BEACH

Beaches, where I live, are not really the greatest & so I want to go to one that has actual sand, clear water, and is a good time.

2. SEE A SHOOTING STAR

I see at least three every summer & I love getting to see more each and every year. They are just so special and absolutely breathtaking. If you have yet to see one, I recommend looking for them in August (that is when you will see them the most!)

3. GO ON A NEW ADVENTURE

There are thousands of different places to explore in my hometown and probably yours as well. Take advantage of the gorgeous weather and get out there. Find cool and exciting things!

4. GO TO THE FAIR

Every year I go to the fair and I would say I got at least five times a year. The atmosphere is just amazing and so is the greasy food. There is no place I would rather be than at the fair my last few weeks of summer vacation. Look to see if there is a fair by you & go to it.

5. HAVE A BONFIRE WITH FRIENDS

I love relaxing by the fire with my favorite people, just talking & chillin'.

6. GO TO A COUNTRY CONCERT

I at least like to go to one or two country concerts in the summer. They are always such a good time with good vibes and even better music. Find a country concert near you and have some fun.. trust me you will thank me later.

7. RELAX ON THE LAKE

I have been going to a lake with my boyfriends family for about two years now and it is the most relaxing vacation I have ever taken. I feel so calm and it surprises me because I am never calm...EVER. If you have the chance to go to a lake/beach for a few days, take that chance.

8. BLAST MUSIC IN THE CAR & JUST DRIVE

There is nothing I love more than being with my boyfriend, family, or friends, jamming to different songs while driving aimlessly. I think that is one of my favorite things to do in the summer, and I can not wait to do it again.

9. MEET A NEW FRIEND

I would love to meet new people in the summer and eventually have them become great friends. I love meeting new faces and getting to know them.

10. OVERCOME A FEAR

We all have many fears and I have one that holds me back from doing the one thing I really want to do. This summer is all about becoming a new and happier me... so that means facing my fears and having a good time!

11. PLAY IN THE RAIN

okay, but for real...this is so much fun to do. Usually, I say I can not stand the rain, but when you are outside having fun and goofing around...it is honestly the best. So on the next rainy day, go outside and have some fun.

12. UNPLUG FOR ONE FULL DAY

I want to try it out this summer. Basically, for an entire day, you shut off your phone, your social media, the TV, and the computer. You shut those off and get outside to do something productive.

13. JUMP ON A TRAMPOLINE

I know this one is extremely silly, but I do not have a trampoline and I have always wanted one. This summer I just want to jump on a trampoline....that is all...


I hope these helped you in figuring out what to do for the rest of the summer...Have fun and good luck :)

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
