In This Article:

February is the most brutal month in the Midwest because it is fully winter and cold and snowy. By this time of the year, I am sick of it. Spring is on the horizon, but there's still a long way to go.

Here are 11 places I'd rather be than in the Midwest.

1. Hawaii

I would rather be sitting on Hawaii's many beaches right now.

2. Bahamas

A cruise to the Bahamas would be ideal.

3. California

That California sunshine would feel amazing on my face.

4. Cancun

Wouldn't mind escaping to a different country.

5. Florida

Anywhere in Florida sounds perfect right now.

6. Texas

Not tropical, but still warm.

7. Louisana

I've always wanted to go to New Orleans.

8. Arizona

I would do anything to see a cactus right now. Cacti = warm

9. Brazil

That view though.

10. New Zealand

Never been, but supposedly it is warm during this time of the year. But even if it is cold, at least I am not in the Midwest.

11. Dominican Republic

Palm trees for miles.

12. Jamaica

Let me just sit down in those chairs and watch the waves roll in.

13. Argentina

This looks very unique.

14. Costa Rica

Looks like a tropical paradise.

15. Tennessee

I just really like Tennessee.

16. South Carolina

It just looks like a whole lot of fun.

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.
