22 Things To Put On Your Summer Bucket List
barnyz

Since we are towards the end of the semester, I have been thinking a lot about summer. Summer is that time of the year in which everyone is finally free from school--unless you are taking summer courses--and can plan to do all the things you could not do before.

Summer is the perfect time to go out, enjoy nature, exercise, do sports, paint, take lots of pictures, write, read, travel, be creative, etc. The possibilities are just endless. I have to admit that my favorite season was fall, but, since this year we had a very crazy winter, summer has become my favorite.

As a result, I have been pretty excited about summer time and I have decided to write a list of the things I am planning to do. I hope everyone can relate and give me some more ideas to add to this list.

Without further ado...here is my list:

1. Ride a bike

It has been really nice outside and I hope it stays that way. It is just the perfect time to just go out and ride a bike.

2. Cook

I have always wanted to try so many recipes I have seen on media, but I haven't had enough time.

3. Read a book

I have a couple of books I have been trying to read, but again I have time management problems.

4. Road Trip

It would be very cool to do this and just forget for a bit about your problems and go to a place you have never been before.

5. Go to the Beach

This is an obvious one.

6. Go to an Amusement Park

I really want to ride a rollercoaster, I just love it.

7. Go out for long walks

Winter is finally over. It is time to get back outside.

8. Take care of myself

Now that I am free, I just want to give more attention to myself. Take a long bath, meditate, have a positive attitude, etc.

9. Be more creative

I want to finish all those drawings and paintings I have started once, and also make new ones too.

10. Eat Healthier

This is going to be hard because we all have something that we can just quit eating.

11. Earn and save some money

When I get or earn some money, the first thing I do is spend it on new clothes or any other type of material good I really want at that moment. Yes, I need to think a little bit more before spending everything I have.

12. Rock Climbing

I just need to do it and check it out of my list.

13. Binge-Watch old/new TV shows

Ahhh....there are way too many. I might start right now.

14. Relax

Yes, school is over...no more worries

15. Sleep

Again--school is over--now I can get those 15 hours of sleep if I want.

16. Learn those song lyrics I wanted so badly

There are so many songs I want to learn and sing along.

17. Take lots of pictures

18. Canoeing

I just need to do it again, I had so much fun.

19. Have a picnic

This seems like a very interesting idea--I hope there are not bees outside though.

20. Volunteer

There are many opportunities and is a way of helping people.

21. Get a job

It is very hard to get a job you like, but I will not surrender. I will just keep trying.

22. Try something new

Mmm...Yes! I definitely need to do this!

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.

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.
