Every summer, we all have a list of things that we want to get done before the fall rolls in and we head back to school. A lot of things include going to the beach, losing weight, or have a bonfire. Summer is an amazing time, but here are some different things to take on this summer!

Visit a farm

Find a local farm! Seeing some pigs and cows can be a fun day trip!

Do charity work

Giving back to those who need help the most is something we should all try to do when we can.

Have extended family time

Go find the cousins and uncles and aunts and have a family cookout or beach day!

Read a good book

You have the entire summer, why not find a good book to relax with and enjoy.

Try a new food

Give something new a try, if you don't like it you have the rest of the summer to stock up on ice cream.

Get a summer job

Might as well make some money this summer so you can afford all the fun things you want to do.

See a play/musical

Do something "classy" and go to a theater and see the play/ musical playing! There's always a good one around!

Keep a journal

Keep track of your summer with a daily journal! Then you can relive your summer even when it's over!

Photography

If writing isn't your thing, take a daily photo to show what you do for the summer and keep them on your phone or a journal! This will be something amazing to look back on when the summer is over.

Learn how to play a new sport

Tennis, kayaking, or any other sport you want to learn more about, this is the time to do it!

Get artsy by trying a new hobby

Grab a pad of paper or a canvas or find some fun ideas on Pinterest! Have fun this summer and use your free time creatively!

Visit a state you've never been to

Why not go on a road trip to some new places! Carpe Diem!

Go to a sporting event

Grab some baseball tickets (or any other game) and have a fun day!

Visit monuments/ famous locations near your house

Get some history into your summer and learn about your surroundings!

Do what makes you happy

Doing what makes you happy is key!

Watch your favorite childhood show

Spongebob, Hey Arnold, Ed, Edd, n Eddie, Dexter's Lab... the list can go on forever! Why not enjoy some time with your old favorites

Visit a flea market

Go out and find some old gems and hidden treasures at a local flea market!

Clean out your closet (literally or figuratively)

Do some spring cleaning in the summer, or deal with some emotional things that you've been hiding or pushing aside.

Enjoy the little things

Just take some time to sit back, relax, and enjoy what's around you.

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.

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.
