If you're like me at all, you're not a fan of the party scene. You're accustomed to staying in on Friday and Saturday nights, watching episode after episode on Netflix. However, just because you don't party doesn't mean you can't have fun! Here's a list of 7 party-alternatives you can fill your weekends with.

1. Get Artsy

One of my favorite things to do in my free time is to paint my favorite Bible verses on canvas. Not only is it fun, it's also a stress reliever. Is painting not your thing? Get online and look up cool DIYs you and your friends can try out!

2. Have a Spa Night

Have a spa party with your friends. Paint nails, do facials, and throw it back to sleepovers from your childhood with a nostalgic playlist!

3. Get in the Kitchen

Have a sweet tooth? Bake some brownies or a cake! Craving a late-night snack? Make some kale chips. Whatever you end up making, you can be sure that it'll brighten up your Friday night.

4. Go out on the Town

There are SO MANY things to do around town, once you take a little time to research. You can find everything from cute little coffee shops, to movie theaters, to bowling alleys, to paint-your-own pottery places. Dress up with some friends and adventure around your local area!

5. Break out the Board Games

If you don't have any board games laying around, ask around. Someone will have some! Grab some snacks, invite some friends over, and start playing. Time flies when you're having fun with board games!

6. Hit up the Gym

Most gyms on campuses are open Friday and Saturday nights- and usually empty. This is the perfect time to grab your favorite machine, turn your favorite song on, and workout. Not wanting to work out alone? Pull up a yoga or dance fitness video online, and have a workout party with some friends.

7. Turn on your Favorite Movie

You can create some of your best memories having movie nights in college. Tell your friends to wear their pajamas, bring blankets, pop some popcorn, and turn on a movie. Boom. Such an easy way to have a fabulous night.

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.
