13 Things To Do At The Beach

If you are like me, your go to summer spot is always the beach. The beach is a place where you can make your day extremely peaceful or make it more entertaining with doing fun activities. Either way you cannot go wrong making a beach trip. Here are some ideas that will make your beach trip more memorable.

1. Relax.

Take some time for yourself to unwind and just live in the moment to allow yourself to de-stress.

2. Boogie board.

It is a fun activity to do in the ocean with friends. Grab a board and see who can go the furthest.

3. Football.

Get a football and either play a game or just throw it around playing catch. It is always a lot of fun.

4. Surf.

Rent a surfboard for the day and try to catch some waves. It is one of the best water sports and trying it will be worth it.

5. Picnic.

Pack a lunch and enjoy your meal while people watching and taking in the scenery.

6. Bonfire.

Start a fire and either hang out by the fire or begin roasting marshmallows to make infamous s'mores.

7. Shop at the local boutiques.

Go find the local stores and shop around to see what they have to offer.

8. Fish.

Find a close by pier to fish on. It is a nice view while you are able to catch some fish.

11. Boating.

If you can, rent a boat and spend the day out at sea. It is really relaxing and will be a day to remember.

12. Swim in the ocean.

It may be too cold ,but swimming in the ocean is a lot of fun and one of the best ways to cool down from the summer heat.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.
