The summer is nearing the end as it is about to be August. The first half is over, and now the second half will start. However, just because the summer is almost over does not mean that there are not fun activities to do to end the summer out with a bang. Here are three fun activities going on currently that an individual can do.

Read A Book

A nice activity to do to enjoy the rest of the summer is reading a book, whether it is a memoir or a fictional novel. It is nice to enjoy a good read before starting school or college in the coming month or so. It is also good to get the brain working and to read one while being on the beach or when just sitting around at home.

TV- Shark Week

A memorable weeklong event for the summer is Shark Week. It has been going on for many years and many people watch it every summer. It is like a significant pastime in the summer. It will be a weeklong week of shark attacks and sightings caught on film. Sharks are one of the oldest and vicious animals in the world. Shark Week can be pretty entertaining at times with brand new episodes that brings new information on the creatures.

Go To The Movies

There are still some great movies to see in theaters. "Dunkirk," a war film from WWII, has been said to be a highly acclaimed movie. Movie goers can also see "Spider-Man: Homecoming," "Despicable Me 3," "Baby Driver," "Cars 3," and last but not least "War for the Planet of the Apes." Most of these movies have had positive reviews, and people should go try and see these films to end the summer with relaxation and excitement.

Go to the Beach

This is another great activity to do for the rest of the summer. It is just so appealing to go in the water or play in the sand. It is also nice to walk along the waves or eat some delicious food with a breeze. And walking on the boardwalk and playing games is also really fun.

Go on a vacation

Do you have any family members that you want to see? Or do you need to visit any friends? Going on a vacation is relaxing and can be a good way to end the summer. Regardless, of all the activities that one can do, school is a priority and it is good to get ready for it.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
