7 Affordable Things to Buy This Summer

Summer is supposed to be fun! Who can have fun when they don't have any money to spend. Here are some great summer ideas to spend some pocket change on things to entertain yourself for hopefully (some) of the summer.

1. Inflatable Boat.

These boats range from $5-$20 and sit one or two people reasonably. It would be such a fun thing to take out for a day on the lake or even a pool for some relaxation.

2. Oversized badminton set.

If you invest a little more than five dollars into this toy, it can be a great way to play badminton with a little more skill.

3. Water Balloons.

These are a must for any hot summer day especially if you can't seem to get out of the heat.

4. Kiddie pool. These are nice for lounging around in at a picnic or just dipping your feet in to cool off!

5. A fun sprinkler.

Who doesn't love making a fool of themselves and getting a little wet on hot summer days? Bring out the old one you had as a kid and have some fun!

6.Corn hole is always fun even if it is just you and your dog playing!

7. Build your own tent and have a picnic in a park.

The tent will be nice to block out the shade and keep you and your food cool on hot summer days.

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.
