Although 2016 is coming to close very near there is still time to recruit some friends and go on some winter adventures you’ll remember forever.

1. Holiday Lights

Some houses certainly know how to put on a holiday show. They pull out all the stops, hundreds of lights, large inflatable blow ups, and fun displays. Whether you go out with your family or your friends, driving around your town to find the best-decorated house will be a fun time.

2. Ice Skating

Whether you go with friends, family, a loved one, or maybe all of the above ice skating is a great way to go to fill up some of your time. Even if you can’t skate I wouldn’t rule out ice skating from your to-do list. It’s a great way to spend time with people while having fun! Watch out for all those pro little kid ice skaters who zig in and out of traffic doing circles around everyone! Plus, you never fail to have that one pro figure skater on the ice who has no show everyone up, it’s some great entertainment,

3. Play in the Snow

Find your inner kid and relive all your fun winter memories. Gather your friends and family and go out and enjoy the snow. Whether that is building a snowman, having a snowball fight, building a snow fort, or making a snow angel.

4. Go Sledding

Sledding is a great thrill activity to do with anyone. As a kid, finding a huge hill and racing down it with all your friends was a definitely must during winter. However, you are never too old to bring out that old sled and find a nice hill near you!

5. Have a Movie Marathon

Bored at home with nothing to do? I would highly recommend getting yourself a nice cup of hot cocoa, blankets, and hanging out on the couch having a movie marathon. Whether you are in the mood for Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, or some classic Holiday Movie. If you’re wishing to go down the holiday path TV stations like The Hallmark Channel or Freeform play nonstop holiday movies during the holiday season,

6. Make Cookies

With hundreds of recipes online that pretty much all include the same 10 ingredients you could spend days just making cookies. These holiday treats are great to eat and great to make. If you’re looking for a great bonding activity to do in the home with friends or family making cookies is for sure a front runner!

7. Go to New York City

Last, but not least, NYC is a great play to be during the holiday season. With sales in almost every store, magnificent light displays, a large Christmas tree, or ice skating in Rockefeller Center. There are so many things to do in New York City during this time of the year and there will never be a dull moment!

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.
