3 Must Do Things For Your Summer
We Know Your Dreamz

It's that special time of the year when college kids are the most stressed, but also the happiest they will ever be. It's almost the end of the semester and many of us already have our beach bags packed for this summer. While some have internships and jobs, for those, like myself who refuse to grow up, our summer will be planned by things that won't pay us, educate us, or are 100% safe. For those who have an open calendar for the summer ahead, here are somethings you may be able to add.


1. Hike A Mountain

...or two or three. Hiking is the perfect way to spend quality time with those you miss when you are away at college. It's an awesome way to get that fresh air you've been deprived of in the library and away to literally and figuratively expand your horizons. Don't worry if the closest mountain is an hour or more away, remember it's about the journey, not the destination. Enjoy a fun-filled car ride with friends along with a hike!


2. Two words... Ice Cream (or is that one...?)

Those late summer nights with the orange and purple skies can be even more memorable with a extra large ice cream cone in your hand. Whether you're a mint chocolate chip person, a double brownie chocolate, or plain vanilla type, the dripping off the cone will bring a smile to your face. Our favorite parlors and shops are open that serve the most mouth-watering ice-cream and the summer is the best time to learn what flavor best suits you. Why work for a bikini body when you can eat ice-cream (even in a bikini if you want to).


3. Attend a Concert

While seeing your favorite artist would be awesome, and if you are able to by all means go for it, half the fun of a concert is the atmosphere. Buy yourself a pair of cheap tickets to a grass area concert and immerse yourself in the electricity of the crowd!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
