"Oh, the Places You'll Go"

Maybe one day.

To be able to travel is such a privilege. With school coming up and summer coming to an end, I can't help but think of the places I'd love to go one day. Here is a list of five different places I've heard that are amazing places to visit.

1: Ireland

I have an Irish background and would love to see where some of my ancestors came from. I have heard that the cobblestone roads and the open fields in the country side are an amazing sight as well. To tour the castles as well is something that anyone should look into, so much history.

2: Czech Republic

Both of my great grandparents were from Czechoslovakia and one day I would want to see the beautiful land of where the came from. I have been told it is beautiful and again more countrysides to see and castle. Prague is high on the bucket-list of places I want to go as well. Also, have you ever heard of Hranice abbys? It's supposedly the second deepest underwater cave in the world.

3: Paris

So I've been told this is the city of love and one of the most romantic places to go with especially your significant other. That may be true, but I will never really know till I go. The Eiffel Tower is also a major land mark I want to go to and experience, because in peoples pictures it always look massive and beautiful. One other thing that would be great to see while in Paris is the art work such as, Mona Lisa.

4: Guatemala

Many friends from high school are Guatemalan, including my boyfriend. They all have different things to say about Guatemala, so the only way to find out what is real is to go down there. Tikal is a place that is in Guatemala and is apparently also a great place to learn about the Mayan people and learn more about their culture. Also, the music and food that the Guatemalan people I know up here have must be ten times better from where they originated from.

5: Iceland

Blue Lagoon Geothermal Spa, that is all I have to say. Seriously though, in pictures and videos this place looks magical. Then there is also the Northern Lights, it's not always promised that you will be able to see them, but how cool would it be if you were to? My luck I wouldn't if I ever were to try to though. Also, the black sand beach that is apparently there sounds very cool to see. These are the three main things that really fascinate me about Iceland.

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.

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.
