10 Places To Visit On My SoCal Bucket List
Alicia Burrell

Going to school and living in Southern California brings many fun, instagrammable opportunities and spots. Whether it is food places, hiking spots, the ocean, or some trendy area to be in, SoCal has so many places for anyone to visit. Here is my bucket list of 10 places I've yet to go in SoCal.

1. Rocky Horror Picture

Every Saturday night at 11:59pm, the Nuart Theatre in Los Angeles has a performance of Rocky Horror Picture Show.

2. Venice Canals

The Venice Canals is this super beautiful spot where they filmed Valentine's Day (the movie) and a place that many people have first dates.

3. Balboa Park

Balboa Park is located in San Diego, California and is home to museums and beautiful parks. For those of you who are deep into cuffing season, maybe a potential wedding location.

4. Nobu

Nobu is one of the most popular, most expensive restaurants in Malibu, California. Hopefully, by the time I start making good money, this place will be just as popular.

5. Malibu Wine Safaris

Whoever invented Malibu Wine Safaris thought of everything. Most kids love the zoo and as adults, we are always yearning for the days with no responsibilities, so why not mix the childhood and the best part of adulthood: ALCOHOL.

6. Java Man Coffee House

My fellow writer, Grace, says that this is the most beautiful beachside cafe to ever go to. Located in Hermosa Beach, CA.

7. Hotel Del Coronado

This gorgeous hotel is located on Coronado Island near San Diego. In the winter they have an ice skating rink on the beach. It's very expensive, but I hope to stay here at some point!

8. Amoeba

Amoeba is located in Los Angeles, CA and will provide all your music needs. The question my roommates ask me every week, "How have you not been yet?"

9. Carpinteria

Carpinteria is located east of Santa Barbara and is known for its small-town vibe (well as small of a town as there could be in California) and beautiful secluded beaches.

10. Bruxie

Bruxie is a waffle place located in Santa Monica, CA. It is known for making waffle fries, waffle sandwiches, and just plain waffles.

I hope you enjoyed my bucket list of places to go to in SoCal.

Go eat, drink, be merry, and most importantly forget about adulting and college stress.

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.
