Friday night football games are every southern kid's dream. Its the perfect time to walk the track with your closest friends, eating greasy foods, and bonding with your hometown in a whole different kind of way.

5. High School parking lot

As where I can't personally relate to this one, I've noticed this to be one of the places alot of teens do hang out at during the weekends.

4. Mall

The mall was always the place to walk around with your friends and hit up places like Bath and Body Works and Claire's, find cute boys, go to the movies, ect.

3. Park

Every kid has at least one stupid story from a park or playground experience.

2. Walmart

Walmart was the "its late, I can't sleep, lets go!" kind of hang out spot. Its where you did dumb things, as shown above, and made lots of memories. Kudos to you, Walmart.

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.
