20 Things To Do With Your BFF This Summer

Saying goodbye to best friends at college is tough, especially when you live hours away from each other. Summer vacation provides a chance to finally reunite with best friends from high school!

Here are 20 things for you and your high school BFFs to do this summer:

1. Go to the beach

Even if you don't live near a beach, a road trip to one is always fun!

2. Take a road trip to a city in your state that you've never visited before

You'd be surprised how much you don't know about your own state.

3. Make an awesome playlist for car rides

Don't forget to add some of your favorite throwback songs from middle school.

4. Go to the gym together

Try a zumba or yoga class together. Even if you aren't the best, at least you look dumb together.

5. Get mani-pedis together

6. Go see a movie

My high school BFF and I are going to see "Finding Dory" as soon as it comes out!

7. Go to a concert together

Dance, laugh, and make some awesome memories listening to your favorite musician.

8. Visit a festival together

There are a ton of festivals in Virginia. My favorites are the Virginia Beach Patriotic Festival and the Pungo Strawberry Festival.

9. Go for a hike

It's a perfect way to get some exercise and take some amazing pictures.

10. Meet up for brunch

Try a new restaurant and catch up on everything you missed while you were away at college.

11. Throw it back to middle school with a sleepover

A sleepover isnot complete without face masks and chick flicks.

12. Visit each other's college towns

This is another great excuse to have a road trip! Plus, you get to see your bestie's second home.


13. Go shopping

Your best friend was your main mall buddy in high school, so you know you'll have a great day.

14. For the adventurous best friends: go camping

Unplug from social media for the weekend, and don't forget to make some s'mores.

15. Have a photo shoot

I did this for my friend's senior pictures, and we had so much fun finding beautiful locations to snap some pics!

16. Be a tourist in your hometown

Go to museums, visit historical sites, and take touristy pictures. You might even learn something new about were you live.

17. Craft together

Get some inspiration from Pinterest, hit up Michael's, and spend the day crafting.

18. Try a new recreational activity

Go surfing, kayaking, or stand-up paddleboarding.

19. Get out old yearbooks and pictures together

Laugh and reminisce over the awkwardness.

20. Channel your inner child and go to the zoo or aquarium

You may be the only people over the age of 18, but you'll have just as much fun as the elementary school kids on their field trip.

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.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
