With the start of summer comes the start of countless adventures and road trips. There's nothing like a fun drive with friends or family. Needless to say, there's a lot of planning that goes into the adventure, and I'll give you the low-down on the essentials via your favorite moments of "The Office."


Life has just gotten to be too stressful lately. How does one escape the harsh reality of everyday life? ROAD TRIP!

What do you do first? Find the place and the time.

Planning is super important. You have to coordinate with your friends who want to go with you, ask time off from work, and ensure you won't be missing any big events. Finding the perfect time to leave can be much easier said than done.


What comes next? The other attendees, obviously. You'll need...

The Navigator:

The navigator is going to be the driver's right-hand. They will act as your map, jam session duet partner, and volume controller. Be sure you make the right choice. You don't want to end up in a lake in the middle of no-where because Siri let you down.


The Aux Cord Holder:

A lot of faith goes into the person in charge of music. They have to do what's best for the greater good. No favoritism allowed. They need to have fire playlists ready to go at the drop of a hat. Some songs that belong on your road tripping playlist? Check out my playlist, "Road Trippin'" on Spotify.

The Snack Supervisor:

This role is not one to be taken lightly. You need to balance the sweet, the salty, and the beverages. The snacks can make or break the quality of a road trip, and no one wants to be experiencing hangry emotions.

The Designated Photographer:

Pinterest

The captured memories are probably second most important, only falling behind the experience itself. The photographer needs to be ready to catch candid moments at all times. Photoshop skills like Michael's are a bonus.

Once you've chosen your team, it's time to shop for supplies.

You have to go all out for a road trip. It's important to be almost over prepared. You never know what might come in handy. Meet up with your fellow road trippers and comb through Meijer for the necessities.

Once you have all the people, food, and supplies you require, you're good to go!

Pinterest

Just grab some coffee, your best pals, hop in the car, and get going!

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.
