Whenever it's raining, we usually get down and out, but why not make it a time of productivity and fun?

Baking

Everybody loves a fresh batch of cookies, so why not try a new recipe?

Read a book

Is there a book you've been trying to read, but you just haven't had the time? Try starting it when it rains.

Netflix/Hulu

Finish binge watching that TV show, or start a new show that has been on your list for a while.

Clean

No one likes to clean, but when you're stuck inside on a rainy day, why not get it done then? Turn on some music and get to cleaning! Try a task that no one ever likes doing like cleaning out the fridge or dusting the blinds

Relax and take time for yourself

Take a nap or a bubble bath. Sit and enjoy the sound of the rain hitting your windows. Paint your nails, try that new face mask, or sit in your PJ's all day.

Plan ahead

Use this rainy day to plan for your next big adventure, project, or month. Plan out your work schedule, school schedule, homework schedule, or anything that you've been meaning to be more organized about.

Shopping

Who says you have to stay in when it's raining? Use this day to go shopping and treat yourself to a new outfit or some new makeup products. Everyone needs a shopping day every now and then.

Game night

Invite your friends over, or just have a game night with your family. Pull out all of the board games, card games, and any other games you have.

Plan your outfits for the next week

Take this time to pick out your outfits and save you some time in the mornings for the next week.

Movie marathon

Start a movie series, or just pick out lots of movies that you want to watch. Pop some popcorn and watch them all afternoon long.

Dance

Turn on your favorite music and dance like no one is watching. Have a dance party with friends or have one by yourself.

What do you do when it rains?

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.
