Make The Most Of A Rainy Day
bamsi.org

I think we can all agree that rainy summer days are an unwelcome occurrence. It's easy to get discouraged when pool days and outdoor adventures must be put on hold because the sun decided to hide. How are we supposed to make unforgettable summer memories when stepping foot outside would mean being soaked from the precipitation? The answer is that... there are still tons of ways to make memories and have fun with family or friends even if the weather is attempting to forbid it! Now there is of course the normal things to do such as watching movies, reading a good book, or playing games, but I'm here to suggest a few other ideas that you may not have thought of!

1. Find a recipe for something you've been craving and make it!

I love baking, but I don't get to do it as often as I would like. A rainy day inside is the perfect excuse to try that new cupcake recipe you found on Pinterest!

2. Reorganize your closet!

I don't know about you, but I love having a clean, color-coordinated, and organized closet. Normally I can't find the time needed to clean my entire closet, but a whole day spent inside allows for the task to get done!

3. Do some yoga!

Yoga is a great way to relax, destress, and stretch your muscles. There are yoga videos all over the Internet for beginners all the way to experts. So whether you're flexible or not there is bound to be a video for you! Trust me, you'll feel better after you're done!

4. Have a dance party!

Whether you're by yourself or with friends/family, crank up the tunes and dance away all of your boredom!

5. Craft something!

I'm always finding new DIYs to try and a rainy day is the perfect opportunity to try some of them! Pinterest is the perfect place to find ideas if you're inspired to make something!

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.
