7 Things To Add To Your Summer Bucket List
The Power of Dance

It's finally that time of year. The most wonderful time of the year, and I'm not talking about the winter holiday season. It's summer and schools out. It's time to take a long, much deserved break. Summer can be dull, but if you're doing it right, you have a list of things you want to do before heading back to school in the fall. Here are some things you should add to your list to make summer 2k16 the best one yet.

1. Go somewhere you've never been before.

Everyone loves adventure and summer is the perfect time for adventure. Whether it be a new place anywhere in the world or a new place in your hometown, go somehwere you haven't been and take it all in.

2. Make your own ice cream.

Get creative this summer. Why spend money on ice cream when you can just make some yourself. Here are some recipes that can get you started.

3. Have a movie marathon literally all day.

When was the last time you literally just layed in bed or on the couch and watched movies nonstop? There are probably a ton of movies you've wanted to watch, but you've just been so caught up with school that you haven't been able to. Grab some popcorn and take a day to relax.

4. Run a lemonade stand.

Bring out your inner child and try to make some money. Yeah, it might be weird. Yeah, no one will probably buy lemonade from you. Just take it as an excuse to sit outside on a nice day and look ridiculous while drinking a nice cool beverage.

5. Climb a 14er.

Or if you've already done this, try climbing all the 14ers in your state. There's probably one or two that you've always wanted to do. Go out and do it.

6. Road trip.

This is probably already on your list. I mean, whose list is this not on? But you should probably put it on your list again as extra motivation to actually go on a road trip.

7. Pretend to be a tourist in your hometown.

You probably see them around, but you make fun of them. Well, take a day and spend it in their shoes. Take pictures of literally everything and go all out. Bonus points for the sunscreen on the nose.

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.
