In This Article:

Well, we're almost there, folks. We're almost at the end of the semester. Today, as I'm writing this article, it's a super sunny and nice day. I just got back from taking some artsy pictures at a park by my school and got ice cream with my best friend.

Days like today make me super excited for summer. Days like today make me think of all the good things that summer is going to have in store for me.

1. Beach days.

Sunny days on the beach with friends or my cousins are what I live for.

2. Nights on the boardwalk.

Nights walking the boardwalk and going to the rides are the best, especially after a beach day.

3. Windows down, country music BLASTING!

No explanation needed.

4. Sleeping in after late nights.

Since I don't get to sleep in during the school year, sleeping in after being out all night is GREAT.

5. Swimming.

I'm one of those girls who love to actually swim. I don't care if my hair gets wet. I just want to be a freaking mermaid.

6. Night swimming.

Honestly, swimming at any time in the day is great, but there's something better about night swimming.

7. Bonfires.

Filled with friends, s'mores, and good times.

8. ICE CREAM!

Again, no explanation needed. It's my favorite treat year-round.

9. Chill nights with friends.

Even though there are so many of those crazy nights, it's just as nice to have chill nights, just listening to music, catching up with friends, and talking about life.

10. Tan skin and light hair.

I swear I look and feel my best when I'm tan and have my blonde hair.

Sunny days like today make me so happy and excited for summer. Honestly, summer is my THRIVING season, and I can't wait for all the warm and sunny days ahead! Only a couple more weeks and we'll be there!

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.
