21 Places to Visit this Summer

As a college student, we have several goals and jobs to do. Studying and doing well in college while learning how to adult is one of the main jobs of every student away from home. It is also the time to make new friends and experience new things, it is the time to discover who you are. This is the start of our lives, the beginning of our decisions, and a new album to add to our memories. There are going to be the classic places everyone goes for spring break, and then there will be new and different places for people to go during spring break. Why not take a new adventure with new friends or old friends this summer? With so much time and so many things to do and learn, it's best to start planning now.

1. Concerts

Loud music, food, dancing, and friends. Is there anything better?

2. Beach/Board walk

Just think, you can't get better fries than those on the boardwalk.

3. Camping

You don't know someone until you take away their technology and put them in nature!

4. Amusement parks

Whether you like roller coasters or not doesn't matter, they have other things to do.

5. Study abroad

Go to a foreign country, and learn more about the language and culture.

6. Road trip

Why not start driving somewhere new and explore?


7. Go somewhere with history

If you live in the Northeast this is not hard!

8. Start a business

Nothing is better than money for a broke college student.

9. See the sites close to home

Make a stay-cation.

10. Old and New Friends

See friends who have moved away or that you haven't seen in a while.


11. Volunteer or find a summer job

You'll need the experience later in life, anyway.

12. Find an internship

It could lead to new opportunities and experiences.

13. Learn something new

Be it a language, a skill, or craft, there's a possibility of it's being useful or entertaining.

14. Take a class

With all that extra time, why not?

15. Read the classics or medieval literature

It can more interesting than you think. You could start a book club.

16. Start a band/learn how to play an instrument

Everyone loves a musician.

17. Go to the dog park

You can't have a dog on campus, might as well get your fill of dogs while away.

18. Make food for the homeless

Because now you know how much value a home cooked meal has.

19. Explore the closest city to you

And go shopping with your mom!

20. Movie Marathons!

21. Join a sports team, or even start one.

Find a new way to exercise.

Make this summer memorable with new and old friends, and get ready for the next fall semester. Not everything is going to work out the way you want it to; but that is actually the fun part about life. Every single memory is a story and a lesson for the future.

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.

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.
