5 Great Things To Do In Nashville, Tennessee
District Nashville

This past weekend I had the opportunity to travel to Nashville, Tennessee. I was very fortunate for the chance to go because it is not often that a girl who grew up in the suburbs can take a weekend trip to Nashville. I have never been to Tennessee before so I was excited for what it had to offer.The purpose of my weekend getaway was to go to a student leadership and student activities conference for one of the organizations that I am involved in at my school.

We had a very busy schedule, but it was flexible at times and allowed us to explore for a couple hours a day. The following places are some of my favorite places that we visited.

1. Visit the Hatch Show Print shop

This place has so many cool prints that you can buy! They make great wall decor and comes in various sizes!

2. Eat at BB King's

Although it was a bit difficult to get in at first, I am extremely glad to have enjoyed the food that is served here. It was delicious and it was neat to eat and enjoy live music! Let's just say that I was full for the entire 8-hour trip back to campus.

3. Visit the Parthenon

Okay so I just love to travel and one place that is on my "must visit" list is Greece. In Athens, Greece sits the Parthenon and Nashville has the advantage of having a full-sized replica in town!! I loved the structure so much and admired the architecture of it. This by far was one of my favorite visits on the trip because who wouldn't want to "visit Greece" while in the United States.

4. Visit the Country Music Hall of Fame

I know absolutely nothing about country music but I know that Nashville is known for it. I felt like the right thing to do was to visit the hall of fame and take a look at all of the cool things there. I definitely had to take advantage of the opportunity and would recommend anyone who visits Nashville to check it out.

5. Explore downtown Nashville

There were so many cool shops downtown. We found quite a few shops that sold cool signs and posters. Most importantly we found a candy shop that sold the best gelato and ice cream. Let's just say I had to eat ice-cream every time we went downtown!

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

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.

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.
