My 5 Favorite Places I've Visited On Summer Vacation
Taylor Kirsch

With the semester coming to the end the only thing keeping me alive is the promise of summer. No homework, sunshine, pool days and road trips. My favorite memories of family and friends are summer trips we have taken over the years. Which is why these next places should be on your summer bucket list to go visit. These are my favorite five places I have visited.

1. New York City

I've visited NYC twice in my life and the last time was the summer of 2017. My sister and I planned out all the food places we wanted to try, most them involving ice cream. My favorite part was seeing a Broadway show, something that has always been on my bucket list. We saw Kinky Boots with Brandon Urie and we both fangirled like 10-year-olds.

2. Yellowstone National Park

My whole family loves it out west. My favorite family vacation is defiantly the trip we took out there in 2012. My favorite part was Yellowstone. It was so beautiful with the waterfalls and hot springs. We even saw Old Faithful go off. There is something very calming about being surrounded by all the nature and the sighting of animals you do not get to see every day.

3. Paris, France

Alright, so this one is by far the craziest place I have visited. I took a school trip to Europe the summer before my senior year. I got to explore England, France, and Spain with my best friends but my favorite place was Paris. Seeing the Eifel Tower, Palace of Versailles Notre Dame and Louvre Museum in person was life-changing and I will forever cherish that trip.

4. Niagara Falls

Last summer my family and I took a trip to Niagara Falls. We took the boat ride they have right up to the falls, got soaking wet and it was hilarious. We also got to take this tunnel to see the backside of the falls which was neat too. While there we stayed on the Canada side, which was our first time in Canada. I defiantly want to go back and take the trials they have around the falls.

5. Orlando, FL

Ok so yes, Orlando is the most basic vacation spot. Between Disney World, Universal and the beach just about everyone has been there. And yes I have been there several times but that why it is so special to me. I have been to Orlando is just about every life stage, like really the first time I went I was two and the last time I was there I was 14, but it holds so many memories. Plus how can you go wrong with the beach and amusement parks?

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.
