4 No Money Dates

You never have to spend hundreds to make a date happen

4 No Money Dates

I hate when couples complain that they can’t go on dates because they have no money because that’s not an excuse to be with someone that makes you happy. Here are a few idea of ‘no money’ or minimal money dates that don’t need any effort

1. Target Date

Honestly most girls I know love target and need to go there every once in a while to get stuff they need, this can honestly be with any store but I love target. Going to run errands with your significant other is so fun, they help you pick things out and you having random conversations and just enjoy each others company. The best moments I’ve even had with friends or guy friends are spent running errands. One time in Florida I went grocery shopping with all of my friends that came on the trip with me and it was just so fun seeing ways they shop or even having different conversations of foods or life!

2. Movie nights

A RedBox movie for $1 or seeing movies on YouTube is the most fun as well. You grab whatever snacks you have in the house and just have a movie marathon with your best friend and enjoy each other’s company. You can never go wrong with making brownies and watching a movie on a gloomy night.

3. Beach walks

Driving to the beach and just walking or sitting down to have a picnic is so much fun, the beach is my favorite place to be at any time of the day so just relaxing and talking about life and playing some music is the best, if you do it at night its even more fun because you can sit back and watch the stars and just imagine what space is like or just how you are in a moment of peace with someone you love.

4. Local free museum days

At least in Chicago going to the zoo is free or sometimes on weekends there’s free dates you can visit a museum. Take advantage of that, that’s a few hours in the day that you can stay occupied and have so much fun doing new things together!

Never miss out on an opportunity to hang out and do something special, its not about the monetary value or the material items but its more of the experience and of the memories that you can keep for a life time!

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.
