When you have spent months in school studying, stressing and pushing yourself to work hard to get those good grades in, the only thing you absolutely look forward to is that long-awaited summer vacation. You know, the one that will take all that little bit of stress away and you can just focus on having fun, working and making money.

Well, once the wait is over and summer is finally here what do you do? I mean, most people don't really spend time making plans for the summer because they're too busy worried about homework and studying. So most people just ended up sitting in their bed with some food in one hand and the remote in the other binge watching episodes of friends on Netflix, which is great but it definitely isn't the ideal vacation you've been looking for.

So, instead of just sitting around and thinking about what there is to do, get up and grab some friends to go on a road trip and take trip down to the beach. There is so much to do other than just sit around. Living in this gigantic world you have an abundance of options.

Here are just a few ideas:

1.Go to the beach.

If you live anywhere near a beach, that is the perfect place to just get away and have some fun for a few hours or even days, depending on how much you're willing to spend to keep the fun going.

2. Go on a road trip.

I'm going to be honest, this one is a bit more tough. What I mean is you need the right the car, the right amount of people, the right kind of people and a pretty good amount of money, because the road trip itself might cost you with gas.

3. Get involved.

There has to be something that you are interested in. Whether that be something within you're creative interest, you're willingness to serve your community or a volunteer job that is looking for some people. Getting involved is a good way to keep busy and at the same time do something that you are interested in doing.

4. Go camping for a few days.

If you are with the right people, then go camping. Camping is so much fun, and depending on where you go, there is so much you can do.

5. See the world.

Take a plane ride somewhere. It doesn't have to be far and there are some airlines that have some great deals on one-way and round-trip flights.

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.
