5 Must-See Places in Australia

Australia, the land down under. With hundreds of things to do, it can be hard to decide what to do first when you visit there. Here are the first five things you must do when visiting Australia.

1. Australian Open - Melbourne

Featuring the world's best tennis players, the Australian Open is an annual tennis tournament played in Melbourne. As one of the four grand slams, and perhaps the one with the most upsets, the Australian Open isn't just for tennis fans. It's a great sporting experience for anyone, and since the finals is usually on Australia Day, you will be able to see fireworks, making it a great show.

2. Sydney Harbour Bridge

The Sydney Harbour Bridge is an iconic part of Sydney's skyline. Not only that, you can climb it or walk across it. It's a great adventurous experience and there's an absolutely breathtaking view at the top.

3. Great Barrier Reef


It speaks for itself, snorkeling or scuba diving in the great barrier reef is the only way you can see the beautiful biodiversity of Earth, all in one place.

4. The Outback

No, not the restaurant. The Outback is the desert region of Australia, and if you thought you saw every animal on Earth in the Great Barrier Reef, think again. The Outback makes up for everything you missed, and probably more.

5. Aaand finally, the Australian cities

Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Sydney, and Canberra are all must-see cities in Australia. Each one has its own culture and diversity, and each one has plenty of attractions for all types of people.

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.

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.
