Since I have been home, the weather has felt like we are in the middle of July. The air is very sticky, and it is either pouring down rain or the sun is blaring through the sky. One of my favorite drinks to make at home is smoothies. They are refreshing, and it is very easy to make them healthy.

1. Pineapple green

This smoothie will make you feel refreshed on those hot summer days, and it has fiber and protein to give you a nutritional boost.

2. Chocolate peanut butter

This is a rich and creamy smoothie that is perfect for a healthy dessert when you are trying to be healthier than getting an ice cream.

3. Raspberry Kefir Power

This smoothie is a perfect substitute for your lunch. It is full of rich and healthy proteins that will keep you full all day.

4. Tropical smoothie

This smoothie will help you imagine you are laying out on a beach. It is easy to make and perfect for a breakfast on-the-go or a snack.

5. Green tea, blueberry and banana

I have never tried green tea in my smoothies, but the mix of these fruits sounds like a delicious and refreshing snack.

6. Piñ a colada

This smoothie is the perfect substitute for an alcoholic drink. You get the same refreshing taste of a piña colada without the extra calories from the alcohol.

7. Pomegranate-berry

This aesthetically pleasing smoothie is full of delicious fruits and will give you the energy to keep going through the day.

All these smoothies are easy to make and will make you feel good. All ingredients can be substituted for a fruit or veggie that you like. Smoothies are always an easy summer snack or meal to make!

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.
