A lot of people have spent their summer working hard, playing hard or doing both and with fall right around the corner, here are seven things you should definitely do this summer if you haven’t had the chance to do them yet.

1. Get your tan going.

It’s never too late to get your tan on! Many people don’t enjoy tanning for several reasons but another easy way to achieve a tan is fake tanning. From drugstore to high-end products there are a lot of safe and easy ways to give your skin a glorious tan.

2. Switch up your hair.

If the sun hasn’t yet kissed your hair, cheat and go lighter with the help of some bleach. If you’re feeling adventurous, dye your hair with streaks of color or try out some temporary color methods if you don’t want a permanent change. Summer is a great time to experiment with shorter hair whether it is only a few inches, an undercut or a pixie cut, it will be a huge relief from the heat. Split ends are common during the summer due to sun damage so if a trim is needed, go for one!

3. Wear summer colors.

You’re probably thinking, “I can’t show up to work in a hot pink shirt,” well you can and the only reason for that is that it is summer. Wear any clothing item or accessory in a summer color that will make your outfit pop and cheer up your mood, your options are endless. Plus, you’ll have a little extra to look forward to in the mornings.

4. Go summer-sale shopping.

As the season is close to an end, many stores have already started putting out sales. Many summer clothes, body products, make up, accessories and all summer related items in general can usually be used all year round or saved for next summer so please don’t miss out from some amazing deals!

5. Don’t miss out on summer dishes.

Some fruits are only available by seasons, which is why summer brings us tropical drinks, dishes, candy and dessert options. Remember you can always make them yourself by searching DIYs, which are always fun to do with some friends and family!

6. Oil up.

Being exposed to the sun is wonderful but too much sun can be damaging. Use oil on your hair to repair, bring back some moisture and shine as well as to help split ends improve. Use on your skin as a moisturizer and over your cuticles for healthier nails. Mix it with some brown sugar and use the mixture to exfoliate but be careful to not over do it. Some of the oils I enjoy using for the previous are coconut oil and argan oil but there are many more options you can use.

7. Make your summer unforgettable.

There is still time to try something new or do something unexpected. It could be going on a road trip, throwing a party, visiting a friend who lives far from you between many other things that can cause an impact in this summer so that you will never forget it. Take pictures along the way to help you keep the memories! If you’re not able to try something different then try your hardest to make the best out of every day that’s left of summer.

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.
