Whether it's your tenth time in Boston or your first, there's so many different things you can try. This bucket list is affordable, easy to do, and of course fun!

1. Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall

Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall are two of the most visited places in downtown Boston and there's a reason why! Both are filled with tons of people, shops, and food. You can grab a bite to eat at Dick's Last Resort and some desert at The Chipyard (try the banana chocolate chip cookies!). This is one place you don't want to miss while you're here in Boston.

2. Fenway Park

If you're coming to Boston might as well catch a Red Sox game. Tickets are affordable and you'll always have a great time. Grab a Fenway frank and snap a picture with Wally, it'll definitely be a time to remember.

3. Cask'n Flagon

If you're at Fenway then you'll need to stop as Cask'n Flagon. The whole place is filled with televisions to watch whatever Boston games are playing at that time. Everyone's a Boston sports fan so don't expect anything else! It's also been a Fenway staple since 1969 and plans to stay that way.

4. Brattle Book Shop

If you're a bookworm, or not, this adorable little book store is the perfect place to visit. It's one of the largest antique book stores in the country. They almost always have an outside selection ranging from $1-10 for used books. Maybe you'll find a hidden gem and make some money off of it!

5. The Boston Common

The common is definitely something you want to experience once while you're in Boston. You'll probably find some strange people but everyone has a story and some of them are actually interesting to listen to. You'll definitely see a couple making out, homeless people, and someone smoking weed but hey it's normal here!

6. Juicy Spot

Juicy Spot is a tiny ice cream shop hidden away in Chinatown. Its not just any ice cream though, it's rolled. If you've never heard of rolled ice cream it's milk poured onto an flat chilled surface and they chop in your ingredients and it eventually turns into ice cream which they then scrape and roll and place into a cup. Juicy Spot has some unique flavors including Good crazy matcha which has lychee, mochi, grass jelly, and condensed milk.

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.
