1. Visit the Eastern Shore

It's a hidden gem that mostly just gets driven by when people leave their homes to go visit Ocean City, but it's a beautiful piece of country that shows you so much of the beautiful Chesapeake Bay and the heart and soul of Maryland.

2. Go to an Os game

Who doesn't want to HIT up (pun intended) a baseball game on literally any night of the week? If you come to Maryland you HAVE to have the Birdland experience. Oriole Park at Camden Yards is the best lookin' ballpark in the entire major league, so even if you're not a huge fan of baseball, you have to go to a game and see the wonder that is OPACY because I promise you it will not disappoint.

3. Visit the Inner Harbor

Who wouldn't want to stop by the cute little shops and pick up some Maryland flag gear? The answer is no one. It also features a two-story Barnes & Nobles and numerous eateries including Shake Shake (yassss). Plus, we have the NATIONAL Aquarium, so keep that fun fact in mind.

4. Adventure in Gunpowder Falls State Park

A couple different paths to hike, a swimming hole, scenic views, and a simple trail even for beginners? What could you not love about this very simplistic, yet very popular gem that's perfect for summer days?

5. Eat crabs

There is honestly nothing better. Steamed crabs, soft crabs, crab cakes, crab soup, the possibilities are endless. It's summertime which means it's crab season, so get your Old Bay, mallets and knives, and cover up any little cuts on your hands because it's time to dig in to some much loved crab.

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.
