Must See Places In Florida

The Sunshine State has more than just nice beaches.

Summer is upon us and you know what that means -- Vacation! I am personally going to Florida for vacation and for those who are also venturing to the Sunshine State, here are four places you may want to visit while you are there.

Clearwater Marine Aquarium

If you've seen the movie "Dolphin Tale," you know what aquarium this is. This is the home to Winter and Hope, two dolphins with miraculous back stories. This aquarium rescues, rehabs, and releases animals that can be released again and if they can't be released, they will seek refuge for the animals. The aquarium has dolphins, turtles, otters, stingrays, sharks, pelicans, and more.

Disney World

This is the happiest (and most magical) place on Earth, why wouldn't you want to go? I have fallen in love with this place and will continue to go for as long as I can. It can be a little crowded in the summer – kids are out of school, it's a popular location to vacation, and (especially this summer) there are new rides and shows opening. Just always make sure you can afford this trip, it can be a little pricey.

Gatorland

A place called Gatorland, you can't tell me you aren't a little bit interested in checking it out. Gatorland is home to thousands of alligators and crocodiles. There is a zip line that travels 1,200 ft through the trees and some of the parks crocodiles and alligators.

Daytona International Speedway

Home to the Daytona 500 - Sprint Series. When there aren't races you can take a tour of the speedway which I did when I was four or five. I see photos of it all the time but I don't remember it. It seems like something that an avid NASCAR fan would love to do. The tour is only 30 minutes and is only $17.00 for adults. It is an affordable, once in a lifetime kind of experience.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
