Congrats! You have survived another year of gross school lunches and 8 am’s. You are now living every day as if it were a Friday night and bar is having 5$ pitchers all night long. You’re probably thinking the opposite as your boss sends you your schedule, but everyone deserves time off including YOU. And because I know you’re tired of thinking, here’s a premade list of fun summer-musts that you cannot hide from!

Spontaneous beach trips

If you wake up and it’s sunny and 85 degrees, you’d be crazy not to take advantage of such amazing tanning weather! Shake and bake baby!

Catch up on your Netflix shows

School just doesn’t like our attention being diverted elsewhere. Now, we have to spend countless hours watching every “Orange Is The New Black” episode and reruns of “Friends”. Maybe that new murder mystery documentary, too?

Actually listen to that playlist you created over winter break

We both know it’s there. All your favorite beach boppin’ hits that you cannot wait to blast through your car speakers with the windows rolled down.

Book a plane ticket

Somewhere. Anywhere. Just get out of this small town!!!

Find true love on a dating apps

Bumble…Tinder…eHarmony…you never know.

Road trip

I suggest closing her eyes and blindly pointing somewhere on a map of the United States.

Go camping at a State park

A wise woman once told me that getting in touch with your nature side is very rewarding.

Have that ideal night

Whether it’s sharing a bottle of wine on the beach with your best friend or sleeping for 16 hours straight, you deserve the perfect night, single or not.

See your favorite band perform live

Nothing is stopping you from hopping in a car or on a train and seeing your favorite song performed live. The overwhelming sensation when the artist belts that high note.

Go skydiving

Cause why the hell not?

What else can you think of?

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.
