20 Reasons We Need To Start Getting Excited For Summer
@itsindysev

Summer is approaching, and this is the season when some of the best stuff happens. As school is slowly coming to an end, everyone begins losing their motivation for their school work and getting hyped up for summer. We all love summer break (even if we don’t love the season itself), but there are lots of things to celebrate about summer coming very soon.

1. Warm weather

"School's out! Scream and shout!"

3. Vacations

Whether it's the beach, camping, or whatever your family and friends like to do, the best parts of summer are having a little getaway.

4. Sleeping in

We all love/need a little extra sleep.

5. Bonfires/campfires

One of the essential parts of summer is having a fire. They're fun, memorable, and keep the bugs away!

6. S'more s'mores please

S’mores and summer are practically the same things. It’s hands down my favorite part of the summer, and everything s’mores flavored comes out this time of year!!!

7. Summer music

Artists will start releasing those summer bops we all drive with the windows down to, and the song of the summer will be named.

8. Being tan


While it is very important to wear your sunscreen, it is nice to have that summer tan where your skin is glowing.

9. Cute bathing suits


The spring is when all the cute bathing suits are released, but the summer is when we get to wear them!

10. Cute outfits

I love the summer, but I love the outfits a lot more.

11. Concerts

Where all of your drunk locals get together to have a huge party with actual singers. The summer (and the people) love concerts.

12. Going out on the lake

There are so many fun things to do out on the lake, and you're always guaranteed to have a good time.

13. Long days

Days in the summer seem never-ending (which is a good thing).

14. Longer nights

Whether you’re out all night driving or just out with friends, the nights usually turn into mornings in the summer.

15. Swimming

I’m pretty sure I was a fish in my past life. My favorite activity of the summer is swimming, what's a better way to cool down from the summer heat?

16. Ice cream

I scream! You scream! We all scream for ice cream!

17. Amusement parks

Rides, games, and food. There's nothing better, and nothing more "summer."

18. Fireflies

The first indication of summer is the first firefly you see, just saying.

19. Sunflower fields

The Beatles wrote a song called "Strawberry Fields Forever," but the summer says sunflower fields forever. They are so pretty.

20. Lantern festivals

Going to a lantern festival will make you feel like you’re in a movie. They are so beautiful and it’s something you should put on your summer bucket list. Get those Instagram pics.

The summer is a magical time, and I think it’s time we all start getting excited. The weather is already starting to get warmer, and the sun is starting to set later. We only have about a month to push through of school before we can start off our summers. The most fun season of all is coming, start making your bucket lists!

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.
