4 Things To Do In Minnesota

You ever have a day off and just have no idea what to do or just have an urge to do something different? As locals, we tend to not even explore our own area and what is around us, in our very own state of Minnesota!

Here are four things to do in Minnesota;

1. Visit the Science Museum

The science museum can be really fun and interesting. A great way to learn science and have fun doing it to! There are many attractions in the museum. Some being; The black Arrow Rocket, Foden Lorry, Tornado simulator, and many more!


2. Visit the WaterPark of America

Now, I have not personally visited the waterpark, but I know many people who have and had a blast. The Waterpark of America is the biggest waterpark full of indoor surfing, waterslides, wave pool, activity pool, and much more. The waterpark also has a hotel you can stay in if you want to enjoy the full package for a few days.


3. Visit the Mall of America

I know for us locals, the mall isn’t that special, but for anyone coming to visit Minnesota for the first time, the Mall of America is a great place to go. The mall is full of great things. Plenty of places to eat, rollercoasters, virtual reality arcade, movie theater, and tons of stores to shop at till you drop.


4. Visit Minnehaha Falls

Minnehaha falls is a beautiful place to visit, have a picnic, take a walk, and just take in the wonderful surroundings. There is so much history in the park to learn, so it’s not also a great place to relax, but also a great learning experience for families.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
